20210252744 · 2021-08-19 ·

A resin supply unit of a manufacturing apparatus supplies a resin to a roller surface of an impregnated roller which is capable of rotating at a constant speed. A transport mechanism brings the fiber bundle into contact with the resin on the roller surface and thereby forms a tow prepreg while the fiber bundle is being transported. A fineness acquisition unit acquires as a fineness acquisition value a fineness, which is defined by a mass per unit length of the fiber bundle during conveyance thereof before being brought into contact with the resin. A resin supply amount control unit controls the resin supply amount based on the fineness acquisition value, in a manner so that a resin content of the tow prepreg becomes a target resin content.

Fleet tracking and behavior modification in geographic areas of interest

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for a mobility management system that serves as a data processing intermediary between mobility operators and governing entities that define rules associated with vehicle behavior occurring in a geographic region. The system receives from a mobility operator historical vehicle data including GPS locations for fleet vehicles within the geographic region. The system determines aggregate behavior metrics for the vehicles using the behavior data. If the aggregate behavior metrics exceed one or more behavior thresholds for a specified time period, the system generates one or more suggested behavior modifications for the vehicles or mobility operators. Moreover, the historical vehicle data may be used to train a machine-learned model to predict a number and behavior of vehicles within the geographic region at a specific time, and if the current number or behavior of vehicles satisfies pre-determined governing criteria, the system modifies one or more vehicle rules.
