Title: Dennis L. Segur and Thermal Exposure Assessment for Shipping
Introduction
Dennis L. Segur is an inventor associated with Rochester, New York, and Eastman Kodak Company. His patent work addresses how to assess the thermal conditions a product may experience while being shipped.
Latest Patents
Segur is credited with 1 patent: “Method for Determining Thermal Exposure of a Product.” The invention describes a computer-based method for evaluating whether a product in a shipping container needs a conditioned environment during transport. It uses a defined shipping route, the container’s thermal characteristics, and historical weather data—including ambient temperature, cloud cover, and humidity—to estimate temperatures inside the container and the product. The estimated product temperature is then compared with the product’s thermal exposure profile.
Career Highlights
Segur’s listed patent reflects an application of data and mathematical modeling to shipping decisions. By estimating a product’s thermal exposure along a route, the method can help determine whether additional environmental controls are needed.
Collaborations
Segur’s listed coworkers include Thomas R. Kolankiewicz and Nadine N. Muehlbauer. His patent is associated with Eastman Kodak Company.
Conclusion
Dennis L. Segur’s patent focuses on using route-specific weather information and thermal modeling to assess product conditions during shipping and inform the need for a conditioned environment.
