Patent CA-2804747-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KORKMAZ LALE
IPC: E21B33/068
Filed: 2011-06-17
Abstract: Fracturing tools for use in oil and gas wells comprise an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve, a run-in position, and two operational positions. The inner sleeve comprises two ports and two positions. The first port is aligned with a first port of the housing when the tool and sleeve are in the first operational position and is closed when the tool and sleeve are in the run-in position. After performing the first operation, the inner sleeve is returned to its initial position and the outer sleeve is moved placing the tool in the second operational position in which the second port in the inner sleeve is in fluid communication with a second port in the housing. Movement of the tool from the first operational position to the second operational position so that a second operation can be performed is done without the need for an additional well intervention step.

Abstract: A system for accurately modeling of buyer/purchaser psychology and ranking of content objects within a channel for user initiated browsing and presentation contains a neuropsychological modeling engine, a ranking application, and a behavior modeler which communicate with each other and a presentation system over communication networks. The neuropsychological modeling engine utilizes metafiles associated with content objects, a purchaser/viewer model and a channel model to derive a value ? representing an individual's mood and a value m representing an individual's motivational strength to select a content object. If the value ? is within an acceptable predetermined range, the value m is used to determine a ranking for the content object relative to other content objects associated with the channel model. Also disclosed are a system and technique for simultaneously presenting multiple, s content object data streams on the user interface in a manner which encourages multidimensional browsing using traditional navigation commands.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining the metabolic capacity of at least one enzyme. It comprises the steps of the time-resolved determination of the concentration of a product in the air exhaled by an individual, wherein the product has been created by a metabolism of a substrate, previously administered to the individual, by at least one enzyme of the individual and wherein the product concentration is determined at the least until the maximum product concentration in the air exhaled by the individual is reached, the fitting of a model function to measured values of the product concentration, which were obtained by the time-resolved determination of the product concentration between a start time and an end time, and the determination of the metabolic capacity of the enzyme on the basis of parameters of the model function, which specify the model function. The method is characterized in that determining the metabolic capacity of the enzyme takes place on the basis of at least two parameters of the model function, with the proviso that the maximum value of the model function and the time constant of the model function are not selected as parameters at the same time, insofar as the model function is a mono-exponential function, and with the further proviso that the start time and/or the end time are not selected as parameters.

Inventor: MURPHREE ZACHARY
IPC: F03B13/12
Filed: 2012-05-03
Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to a method and device for harvesting energy from a fluid flow by converting the kinetic energy of the flow into vibrational energy, which then may be converted to electrical energy by a magnetostrictive-based vibrational energy harvester. Some embodiments of this device rely on the principle of vortex-induced vibrations, where the frequency of the induced vibration is of the same order as the frequency of vortex shedding. Some embodiments of this device rely on the principle of turbulence- induced vibration, where the frequency of vibration can be significantly higher than the vortex shedding frequency, and is related to the turbulence frequency of the flow. Some embodiments also relate to converting energy from pressure pulses or differentials in the fluid. These embodiments in no way limit the vibration induction mechanism, and other principles of flow-induced vibration may be used in conjunction with the magnetostrictive-based vibrational energy harvester.
