20100126786 | ELECTRIC DRIVE INERTIA RATIO FOR TTT - An electric powertrain, a vehicle using an electric powertrain, and a method of manufacturing a vehicle having an electric powertrain are disclosed. The electric powertrain balances the ability of the vehicle to accept a given load, while at the same time affording the vehicle with an acceptable level of maneuverability. By selectively sizing the ratio of the inertia of the electric motor to the inertia of the vehicle, the optimum balance between these two competing concerns may be reached. Moreover, by optionally ensuring the Stemler Factor is less than or equal to the inertia ratio, the proper balance between load acceptance and maneuverability is attained as well. | 05-27-2010 |
20110295453 | ELECTRIC POWERTRAIN FOR WORK MACHINE - An electric powertrain includes an engine configured to provide mechanical energy and a generator operably coupled to the engine and configured to convert at least a portion of the mechanical energy into electric energy. The electric powertrain further includes at least one electric motor operably coupled to the generator, a plurality of driving members, and at least one power electronics unit configured to control at least one of the engine and the generator. The at least one electric motor is configured to provide torque for the plurality of driving members. | 12-01-2011 |

20090082945 | Continuously variable transmission system with power boost - A method is provided of boosting power to a continuously variable transmission having a motor. The continuously variable transmission is powered by an engine. The method includes selectively adjusting a power output of the engine above a steady state power output rating of the engine when an acceleration of the motor exceeds an acceleration threshold value. | 03-26-2009 |

20090248782 | Thread Timeout Coordination Method and System - An apparatus, program product and method associates a timeout used by a client computer sending a work request with a maximum amount of time that the server computer should spend processing the work request. The server computer dynamically reacts to diverse, incoming client load requirements without using a static processing timeout on the server computer side. Resources may be made available for other work. | 10-01-2009 |
