Title: Compression connector for coaxial cable with staggered seizure of outer and center conductor and center conductor seizing mechanism
Inventor: MONTENA NOAH
IPC: H01R9/05
Filed: 2010-04-02
Abstract: A coaxial cable compression connector includes a connector body having opposing first and second ends and a defined center passageway, an insulator disposed within the center passageway adjacent the first end of said connector body, and a compression sleeve movably connected to the second end of said connector body.  In one version, the outer conductor of a prepared coaxial cable end and the center conductor are sequentially seized based on axial movement of the compression sleeve upon insertion of a prepared coaxial cable. The compression sleeve when axially moved from the second end to the first end sequentially enables a clamp to engage and seize each of the outer and center conductors.  In another version, movement of the compression sleeve causes engagement of the center conductor of an engaged coaxial cable by a plurality of seizing elements disposed in relation to a conductive member into which the center conductor is advanced a predetermined distance.

Abstract: Procédé pour mettre à jour un modèle géologique en temps réel à l'aide de données dynamiques tout en conservant sa cohérence avec les observations statiques. On dispose d'un ensemble initial de cartes d'une propriété du gisement obtenues au moyen de simulations stochastiques d'une fonction aléatoire. On choisit des paramètres qui, appliqués à cet ensemble, fournissent de nouvelles réalisations de la fonction aléatoire. On crée de nouvelles cartes à l'aide de valeurs initiales de ces paramètres. Dès que de nouvelles données dynamiques sont disponibles, on modifie les paramètres afin de réduire l'écart entre les données simulées pour les modèles perturbés et les données mesurées. Enfin, on exploite le gisement en mettant en oeuvre un schéma d'exploitation modifié pour tenir compte des cartes déformées.
