According to the invention, an extendable member is disclosed. The extendable member may include a structure having a first state and a second state. The structure may be deformable between the first state and the second state. In the first state the structure may include a compact form. In the second state the structure may include a hollow longeron having a slit along the entire length of the hollow longeron. One or both longitudinal edges along the slit of the hollow longeron may have lateral protrusions.

The deploying from or the retracting toward of the thermally-adjustable features increases or decreases turbulation of the flow along the surface. The component includes the flow-control device. The method includes forming the thermally-adjustable features along the surface of the flow-control device, in direct or indirect contact with a heating member. The thermally-adjustable features deploy from or retract toward the surface in response to a predetermined temperature change provided by the heating member.
64 Systems and methods for value bearing indicia balance reservation US11970933 2008-01-08 US08027935B1 2011-09-27 Geoffrey Charles Begen
Systems and methods which operate to reserve an amount of value associated with a value bearing indicia (VBI) request or requests are shown. Embodiments facilitate completion of a multiple VBI session without failing due to insufficient value balance once the session has begun. Additionally or alternatively, embodiments facilitate later or subsequent (e.g., scheduled) completion of a VBI session, whether a session for a single VBI or multiple VBI, without failing due to insufficient value balance. Value reservations may be made automatically and/or manually. Embodiments provide various reservation priority levels, such as to individual users, user groups, user systems, sessions, types of sessions, jobs, etc., in order to facilitate completion of various desired operations without failure due to insufficient value. Value reservation techniques according to embodiments do not introduce additional transactions into a normal VBI session flow.

66 Stress steering structure US338408 1994-11-14 US5615528A 1997-04-01 Charles R. Owens
A load bearing structure having a set of uniform voids functions to resolve the forces imposed by developing compression in the material having the voids and minimizing the amount of tension developed in the material. For the voids to have this function, they must be deployed in a particular fashion. The voids are deployed to encompass a particular set of points. The set of points are such that each point in the matrix is spaced an equal distance from twelve and only twelve adjacent points of the matrix. The distance between the points does not matter as long as all are uniformly distanced in accordance with that rule. If the structure is considered to be composed of a closely packed set of hypothetical rhombic dodecahedra (RD) and the four edge vertices of each of those hypothetical RDs is truncated, the result will be a set of cubic voids. The center of each of those cubic voids will define the matrix referred to above and the cubic voids will serve to provide the optimum resolution of stress which minimizes the development of tension in the material. One in four of the hypothetical or mathematical RDs can be eliminated achieving the same force resolution result in a structure that contains less material. The shape and size, but not the position, of the voids can be varied with only slight loss in optimum stress resolution. Some voids can be omitted with only slight loss of optimum stress resolution.
67 Design and construction module US466106 1995-06-06 US5575120A 1996-11-19 Frederick G. Handley
A design and construction module comprised of nine cells each having substantially equal lengths, widths and heights and longitudinally opposed ends. Two of the cells form the base of the module and are located side-by-side with their ends terminating adjacent and flush with one another. Three of the cells form an intermediate level of cells located above the base cells. Two of these intermediate cells correspond with the two base cells and are located immediately thereabove, but longitudinally offset. In this way these two intermediate cells extend a predetermined distance beyond the one end of the base cells in an overhang. Opposite the overhang, the third cell of the intermediate cells extends transversely with respect to the two other intermediate cells and the base cells. A portion of the third intermediate cell therefore laterally extends beyond the side of the base cells. Three additional cells define a common top surface of the module. The three top cells are each positioned directly above one of the intermediate cells. A final cell extends perpendicular to the base, intermediate and top cells. With the above construction, the module of this invention is adapted for interlocking engagement with one or more additional modules to aid in the designing and construction of various structures including terrestrial, marine and aeronautical structures.

80 Structural wheel element US602795 1984-04-23 US4606674A 1986-08-19 Mark E. Capron
At least two generally parallel compression rims are joined by tension element spokes, such as cables. A rim separating means, such as columns, holds the rims apart thus maintaining spoke tension. The resulting structural element, comprising rims, tension elements and separating means, becomes an efficient means of transferring external forces from one rim to the other.
