Title: Spectrometer with validation cell
Inventor: FEITISCH ALFRED
IPC: G01J3/02
Filed: 2011-02-15
Abstract: A valid state of an analytical system that includes a light source (102) and a detector (106) can be verified by determining that deviation of first light intensity data quantifying a first intensity of light received at the detector from the light source after the light has passed at least once through each of a reference gas in a validation cell (114) and a zero gas from a stored data set does not exceed a pre-defined threshold deviation. The stored data set can represent at least one previous measurement collected during a previous instrument validation process performed on the analytical system. The reference gas can include a known amount of an analyte. A concentration of the analyte in a sample gas in a measurement cell (112) can be determined by correcting second light intensity data quantifying a second intensity of the light received at the detector after the light passes at least once through each of the reference gas in the validation cell and a sample gas containing an unknown concentration of the analyte compound.  Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

Title: Method and system for increasing degree days for the cultivation of particular fruit bearing vines in unfavourable climatic regions
Inventor: LAMOUREUX NORMAND
IPC: A01D46/28
Filed: 2014-11-19
Abstract: A method and a system for increasing the degree days in the immediate environment of fruit bearing vines for the cultivation of particular fruit bearing vines, such as non-rustic vinifera variety vines, in unfavourable climatic regions where the degree days is insufficient for the full maturity of the fruit, is described. Rows of the vines are protected in removable shelters which have a removable tarp cover disposed over a support frame structure to shield the rows of vines from the harsh , vine damaging, winter month temperatures while keeping the vines in a controlled temperature environment. Heated liquid circulation conduits are supported in the shelters at predetermined locations and provide controlled heat during the winter months to prevent the vines and the cordon bearing spuds of the vines from damaging cold temperatures. In the early spring the roots are activated early and the tarp is removed and a transparent film sheet covering is substituted to admit sunlight to help activate the vine early to gain degree days. The method and system is also applicable to semi-rustic or rustic wine producing grape vines grown in these climatic regions having degree days down to about 1200.

Abstract: A method and system for computing the price for shipping goods. The method includes causing a computer to deliver first information to a user prompting the user to enter at the computer information about a rail transportation service for shipment of goods by one or more railcars. Information about a basic pool of railcars is received and filtered based on one or more filtering criteria to produce a filtered pool of railcars. The computer is then caused to deliver second information to the user prompting the user to select at the computer one or more railcars among the filtered pool of railcars for the shipment of goods.  A price for the shipment of the goods is then computed at least in part on the basis of the rail transportation service and the one or more characteristics of the railcars in the filtered pool of railcars selected by the user.

Title: Impact-driven downhole motors
Inventor: SHEEHAN MARK
IPC: E21B4/10
Filed: 2016-03-24
Abstract: A downhole motor has a bearing mandrel rotatably disposed within a housing, plus an impact adapter disposed above and connected to the bearing mandrel and rotatable therewith. The impact adapter has upwardly-projecting teeth engageable with downwardly-projecting teeth on a drive mandrel disposed above and coaxially aligned with the impact adapter. The drive mandrel is both rotatable and axially movable within the housing, and relative to the impact adapter. By means of a cam assembly and a helical spring (or other energy storage means) associated with the drive mandrel, rotation of the drive mandrel causes upward movement of the drive mandrel within the housing, thus compressing the spring. Further rotation causes instantaneous dropping of the drive mandrel, releasing energy stored in the spring, and causing the application of rotational and/or axial impacts to the bearing mandrel, and thus to a drill bit connected to the bearing mandrel.

Abstract: A pasting unit (58) pastes an omnidirectional panoramic image, which is obtained by capturing images over a range including all directions, along an inner wall of a virtual three-dimensional spherical body disposed in a virtual three-dimensional space. An acquiring unit (60) acquires an embedded image to be embedded in the omnidirectional panoramic image. A generating unit (62) generates a planar image in which the embedded image has been pasted onto a two-dimensional plane. A calculating unit (64) calculates a placement position for placing the planar image with an orientation such that a sight line direction from a center point of the virtual three-dimensional spherical body toward the inner wall is parallel to a line perpendicular to the planar image, said placement position being on the center point side of the inner wall. A display control unit (66) displays, on a display unit, a display image obtained by converting a state in which the omnidirectional panoramic image has been pasted along the inner wall of the virtual three-dimensional spherical body, and the planar image has been placed in the placement position, into a two-dimensional image as viewed in the sight line direction from the center point.
