Tyre comprising a carcass, a belt package and a tread; said tyre comprising at least a reinforcement net made of a weaved textile material having a number of meshes ranging from 3 to 20, and wherein the threads are oriented between 25° and 65° relative to a longitudinal axis (X) of the tyre; said reinforcement net being arranged at least in the area of a centre of the tread and positioned inside the belt package or between the belt package and the tread; said weaved textile material having an elongation at break equal to or greater than 10%; said reinforcement net having a shorter transverse extension than the one of the belt package.

A method for guiding reversing of a vehicle includes displaying, via a video display screen of the vehicle, and responsive to the vehicle being shifted into reverse gear, video images derived from image data captured by a rear backup camera of the vehicle. Responsive to actuation of an input by the driver of the vehicle, an alignment overlay is generated and electronically superimposed on the displayed video images to assist the driver in reversing the vehicle toward a trailer hitch of a trailer. The alignment overlay extends longitudinally rearward from a central region of the vehicle displayed in the displayed video images. The input is an actuatable input other than the vehicle being shifted into reverse gear. The alignment overlay is adjusted responsive to change in steering angle of the vehicle while the driver is executing the reversing maneuver of the vehicle.

Various aspects of a system and method for driving assistance along a path are disclosed herein. In accordance with an embodiment, a unique identifier is received from a communication device at an electronic control unit (ECU) of a first vehicle. The unique identifier is received when the first vehicle has reached a first location along a first portion of the path. A communication channel is established between the first vehicle and the communication device based on the received unique identifier. Data associated with a second portion of the path is received by the ECU from the communication device based on the established communication channel. Alert information associated with the second portion of the path is generated by the ECU based on the received data.

This invention relates to high tenacity yarn for a tire cord comprising polyethyleneterephthalate multifilament obtained by melting and spinning a resin composition comprising first polyethyleneterephthalate and second polyethyleneterephthalate having different intrinsic viscosities, and a method for preparing the same.

A ply (16, 18) comprises metallic monofilaments (46′, 46″). Each monofilament (46′) of a first group has a positive torsional elastic deformation in a first direction about its main axis (G). Each monofilament (46″) of a second group has a negative torsional elastic deformation in a second direction about its main axis (G). The absolute value of the torsional elastic deformation C of each monofilament (46′, 46″) is such that |C|≤6 turns per ten metres. The mean S of the torsional elastic deformations of the monofilaments (46′, 46″) of the ply (16, 18) is such that −0.25 turn per ten metres≤S≤+0.25 turn per ten metres. The monofilaments (46′, 46″) are arranged next to one another so as to alternate one or more monofilaments (46′) of the first group with one or more monofilaments (46″) of the second group.

Shape memory alloy elements (“SMAs”) are bonded, encased, or encapsulated with one or more polymers to form an integrated component with unique elastic, pseudoelastic, and load-bearing properties.

Systems and methods are described for securely monitoring a shipping container for an environmental anomaly using elements of a wireless node network of sensor-based ID nodes disposed within the container and a command node associated with the container. The method has the command node identifying which of the ID nodes are confirmed as trusted sensors based upon a security credential specific to each of the ID nodes; monitoring only the confirmed ID nodes for sensor data broadcast those ID nodes; detecting the anomaly based upon the sensor data from at least one of the confirmed ID nodes; automatically generating an alert notification related to the detected environmental anomaly for the shipping container; and transmitting the alert notification to the external transceiver to initiate a mediation response related to the detected environmental anomaly.
