A wind turbine blade has upper and lower shell members with a respective spar cap configured on an internal face of the shell members. A shear web extends between the spar caps along a longitudinal length of the blade. A connection assembly is configured between the transverse ends of the shear web and the spar caps. The connection assembly includes spring flange members that extend distally beyond the transverse ends of the shear web at opposite sides of the shear web so as to define a laterally extending float section. A bond paste layer is between the float sections and the spar cap and between the transverse end of the shear web and the spar cap as a result of compression of the spring flanges against the spar cap.

Methods for ultrashort pulse laser processing of optically transparent materials. A method for scribing transparent materials uses ultrashort laser pulses to create multiple scribe features with a single pass of the laser beam across the material, with at least one of the scribe features being formed below the surface of the material. Slightly modifying the ultrashort pulse laser processing conditions produces sub-surface marks. When properly arranged, these marks are clearly visible with side-illumination and not clearly visible without side-illumination. In addition, a method for welding transparent materials uses ultrashort laser pulses to create a bond through localized heating. The ultrashort pulse duration causes nonlinear absorption of the laser radiation, and the high repetition rate of the laser causes pulse-to-pulse accumulation of heat within the materials.

An auxiliary welding rib is arranged at the top end of the material-blocking plate, when the two components are welded to each other, the base plate, the main welding rib, the material-blocking plate and the auxiliary welding rib enclose a spillage cavity, such that the spillage of the main welding rib generated in the welding process is fully accommodated in the spillage cavity. The anti-spillage structure of the present invention effectively improves spillage in the case of the manufacturing difficulty not being increased, and at the same time, solving the problem of dirt being contained that is generated at a conventional welding material-blocking edge. 1.

Disclosed are embodiments of a volume control storage bag and methods of making same. The volume control storage bag may have first and second sidewalls, a double-locking closure mechanism with a first closure element extending along the first sidewall and a second closure element extending along the second sidewall, each closure element having a channel and an elongated member configured for interlocking with one another. A gusset is sealed along three sides of the first and second sidewalls, leaving an opening through the closure mechanism and defining an interior space having a specific volume. Corner seals may be formed at the corners of the first and second sidewalls, further reinforcing the double-locking closure mechanism for an airtight and hence waterproof seal. The volume control storage bag may be made of a food-grade polyethylene vinyl acetate blend, approximately 90% or less ethylene vinyl acetate and approximately 10% or less polyethylene. 1wherein each of the first part and the second part of the storage bag is formed of a first portion having a closure element and a second portion having a flat or substantially flat surface,wherein the first portion and the second portion are joined along a base of the closure element of the first portion,wherein the closure element of the first part has a channel and an elongated member extending along the base of the closure element of the first part,wherein the closure element of the second part has an elongated member and a channel extending along the base of the closure element of the second part,wherein the channel of the closure element of the first part and the elongated member of the closure element of the second part are structured for interlocking with one another,wherein the channel of the closure element of the second part and the elongated member of the closure element of the first part are structured for interlocking with one another,wherein the third part is formed of a single continuous gusset having ...
