Abstract: L'invention vise à permettre la détection des brûlures d'usinage des aciers de type THR de façon efficace et industrialisable. Pour ce faire, l'acier usiné est immergé dans une solution aqueuse d'acides comprenant de l'acide fluorhydrique et de l'acide nitrique. Afin de définir un degré de brûlure, un nuancier d'étalonnage de brûlures d'usinage d'aciers THR détectées avec la méthode ci-dessus est préparé. Ce nuancier peut être composé de plots (P1 à P10) de l'acier examiné soumis à des dommages volontaires par des rectifications abusives (ou autres modes d'usinage), puis immergés dans la solution d'acides défini ci-dessus. Les rectifications peuvent être simulées par un traitement thermique en surchauffe, entre la température de vieillissement Tv (par exemple 510 °C pour l'acier) et la température de mise en solution Ts (950 °C pour cet acier). Les échantillons sont classés par leur niveau de gris résultant de l'immersion et correspondant à une dureté déterminée, et donc à un niveau de dommage déterminé.

Abstract: A treatment device and method for use in delivering fluid treatment to a wellbore is described. The device includes a first treatment housing and a second treatment housing, mounted along a tubing string, each of the first and second housing defining a fluid pathway which is continuous with the tubing string and each of the first and second treatment housing defining a port for fluid communication between the tubing string and the wellbore. Fluid flow through the first housing may be selectively blocked by delivery of a deformable ball to the tubing string to seal against a ball seat disposed between the first and second housing. While the first pathway is blocked, fluid may be selectively delivered to the wellbore through the port on the second treatment housing. The ball may be removed from the ball seat by application of hydraulic pressure in excess of the deformation threshold of the ball, forcing the ball to deform and pass through the seat, re-opening the fluid flow through the first treatment housing and allowing for treatment through port defined in the first housing.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods perform diagnostic and/or treatment procedures on an eye using a pupilometer to determine a change in pupil size, a processor and a variable illumination source. In response to a change in pupil size as determined by the pupilometer, the processor may determine an optical light output sufficient to induce a pupillary response and mitigate the change in pupil size. The system directs the desired optical light output to the eye with the variable illumination source optionally to prevent the pupil size from exceeding certain limits so as to improve torsional tracking of markers of the eye.
