Abstract: A system and method for perceiving drilling learning through visualization is provided. In one embodiment using three-dimensional visualization of the earth model as a foundation, a new IT development strategy focuses on perceiving “Drilling Learning” by an intuitive method. Symbols, known as “Knowledge Attachments” are attached to each wellbore trajectory displayed in the three-dimensional environment, with each symbol indicating a specific event—such as one related to drilling operations or problems. A Knowledge Attachment system proves particularly useful to represent disparate data at once, in such a manner that the interdependencies between the earth model and drilling operational data are evident and correlated. Operational issues and lessons learned from prior wells are easily accessed and perceived in the context of the earth model. By understanding this information at the beginning of the well planning process, operational efficiencies may be improved.

Abstract: A ball joint apparatus for a pressurized fluid line includes a bellows (16) and a pair of opposed tube portions (12, 14) to accommodate limited flexure between the tube portions. The apparatus also includes an annular ball element (20) positioned over one of the tube portions and an annular housing member (30) mounted on the other tube portion and overlapping the ball member (20). As initially formed, the overlapping end (40) of the housing member (30) is open and of a diameter exceeding the maximum diameter of the ball member to permit ease of assembly. After the component parts are in position and welded as desired, the apparatus is placed in a hydraulic press and the open end (38) of the housing member (40) is necked-down by a swaging process to establish bearing contact with the ball member and to form an axially-extending lip (41) to provide additional strength. Alternative arrangements of the apparatus are provided for use with stainless steel tubing and with titanium tubing. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A buffer tube design that allows easy access to signal carrying fibers disposed within the buffer tube with risk of damaging the signal carrying fibers. The buffer tube can be made with a ripcord disposed within. Additionally, the buffer tube has the mechanical properties that allow the ripcord to be pulled through the tube wall with less energy than is required to bend the signal carrying fibers within. The buffer tube can also be designed without a ripcord in such a way that the mechanical properties allow the tube to be hand torn using a lower amount of energy than required to bend the signal carrying fibers within. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a mechanically and chemically embossed surface covering having selectively textured surfaces. The method includes forming a web (19) coated with a wear layer (18). The coated web is heated to a temperature at which the wear layer is cured, the foam layer (14) expands, and the pattern is chemically embossed to form a surface covering having foamed regions and nonfoamed regions. The temperature gradient of the surface covering is adjusted such that there is a temperature gradient difference between the foamed and nonfoamed regions. A surface texture is then mechanically embossed into the wear layer (18) and selectively set onto the wear layer substantially overlying the non-foamed regions.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for alias suppressed digitizing of high frequency analog signals, comprising sampling of the analog signals at mean frequencies considerably lower than the upper frequencies in spectra of said signals, is disclosed. A clock produces a sequence of electrical pulses at a predetermined frequency Fclk. This sequence is divided by a pseudo-random integer A to select one pulse from every series of A clock pulses. A digitally controllable delay block delays the selected pulse by a pseudo-random value DxB, where D is a constant increment of the delay and B is a pseudo-random integer. An analog-to-digital (A/D) converter samples the input signal at the time instant of the said delayed pulse. A memory receives and stores the digital sample value from the output of the A/D converter. Said integers A and B are changed after every sampling event. <IMAGE>

A side connection system is particularly useful for stabilizing free-standing walls. Horizontal reinforcing members are also used in the channels and vertical reinforcing members are used in cores of adjacent blocks for reinforcing a wall. Reinforcing geosynthetic materials can also be firmly held in a wall by means of the pins or by connectors adapted to fit in the block channels.

Abstract: Steering and bit lines (of a flash EEPROM system, for example) are segmented along columns of a memory cell array. In one embodiment, the steering and bit lines of one of their segments are connected at a time to respective global steering and bit lines. The number of rows of memory cells included in individual steering gate segments is a multiple of the number of rows included in individual bit line segments in order to have fewer steering gate segments. This saves considerable circuit area by reducing the number of segment selecting transistors necessary for the steering gates, since these transistors must be larger than those used to select bit line segments in order to handle higher voltages. In another embodiment, local steering gate line segments are combined in order to reduce their number, and the reduced number of each segment is then connected directly with an address decoder, without the necessity of a multiplicity of large switching transistors outside of the decoder to select the segment.
