Abstract: An energy absorber for absorbing energy of a vehicle or component (30) of a vehicle
or occupant of the vehicle in a crash situation so as to allow relatively gradual
deceleration of the vehicle, component or occupant, the energy absorber
including a first part (32), a second part (36) and an elongate deformable member (10)

a tie or strut between said first part and said second part but wherein the
arrangement is such that, when the force acting between said first part and
second part in a predetermined direction exceeds a predetermined amount, said
elongate deformable member is thereby forced progressively through said
deforming arrangement (34) as the distance between said first part and said second
part changes and the deformable member is thereby forced to undergo plastic
deformation, whereby energy is absorbed, and wherein said deforming
arrangement is such as to effect such plastic deformation substantially without
changing the material cross sectional area of the deformable member.

Abstract: A method whereby a computing platform that uses geographic data that are
spatially organized into parcels of a given size can specify a parcel block size larger than
the given size. Thereafter, during runtime, the geographic data are accessed by the
computing platform in groups of one or more parcels not larger than the parcel block size.
According to one embodiment, at or after initialization of the computing platform,
groupings of parcels corresponding to parcel blocks are determined. Each parcel block
has a size larger than the maximum parcel size but not larger than a maximum parcel
block size. Data identifying the groupings and the parcels corresponding thereto are
stored on the computing platform and the data identifying the groupings and the parcels
corresponding thereto are used to access all the parcels corresponding to a parcel block
whenever geographic data in any one of the parcels are needed.
