A self-aligning mechanical mount and electrical connection system for an electronic module comprises a mechanical mount assembly configured to be integrated into or attached to a base frame and defining a mount connection position assurance (CPA) feature for self-aligning and securing of the electronic module therein, and an electrical connection assembly configured to be integrated into or attached to the mechanical mount assembly and comprising a modular electrical connector (i) being electrically connected to an electrical backbone wire cable and (ii) defining a connector CPA feature for self-aligning the modular electrical connector with a corresponding electrical connector integrated into or attached to the electronic module when the electronic module is secured in the mechanical mount assembly.

The present invention relates to a utility support framing system for structurally suspended concrete slab over void form foundation systems. The inventive utility support framing system avoids problems created by expansive soils which damage utility lines under foundation systems. The inventive utility support framing system permits suspending utility pipes within an interior space of the foundation system while avoiding the problems of the prior art.

A fixing method of a wire harness is provided. A wire harness structure is formed by covering a wire harness with a sheet material in which a thermoplastic adhesive is coated on one surface including a required portion so as to fix the wire harness to the sheet material. The formed wire harness structure is spread on a roof liner. By pressuring the required portion warmed, the wire harness structure is fixed to the roof liner with the thermoplastic adhesive.

A cable with a tactile twist indicator, wherein the cable has at least one core for signal transmission and a cable sheath surrounding the at least one core, wherein the cable has precisely one tactile twist indicator, which extends along a longitudinal direction of the cable over essentially the entire length of the cable sheath and which has a predetermined orientation relative to the at least one core over essentially the entire length of the cable sheath.

A method for determining optimal path arrangements for an infrastructure link between two geographic locations, in particular, in uneven terrain. The method includes modelling a geographic terrain containing the two geographic locations; optimizing an arrangement cost and a repair rate for two or more potential paths based on the modelled geographic terrain, an arrangement cost model, and a repair rate model, taking into account at least two design levels, wherein the arrangement cost model incorporates direction-dependent factor and direction-independent factor associated with the path arrangements; and determining the optimal path arrangements each including multiple path portions and respective design levels associated with the path portions based on the optimization.
