Title: Method and apparatus for recycling wells for energy production in a geothermal environment
Inventor: CAIRNS PAUL
IPC: F24T10/20
Filed: 2018-03-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus for recycling unused or suspended wells and areas with predetermined suitability for well installation. In one embodiment, existing unused well sites are repurposed for contact in or adjacent a geothermal zone. Drilling extends horizontally in direct contact with the geothermal zone for heat transfer and subsequently terminates at a newly drilled well. The heated working liquid within the sealed annulus is cooled within a sealed top loop at or below the surface and recirculated for further heat transfer.

Filed: 2019-07-02
Abstract: Man portable weapons include integrated electronics that calculate orientation and movement in addition to providing that data to a user's heads-up displays (HUD) as well as to group and area networks. By passing data to a HUD, the user is able to see, virtually, the flight path, point of impact and other ballistic data as well as data representing the condition and performance of the weapon for any rounds fired. The HUD also displays the relative position of other members of the team, last known enemy area of operation and other useful parameters from the man portable weapons of the other team members through the network. The electronics may be integrated within the main components of any suitable man portable weapon in a non intrusive way as to have no effect on the firing mechanism of the small arm when it is fully assembled.

Title: Systems and methods for estimating a position of a heart pump
Inventor: EL KATERJI AHMAD
IPC: A61M1/12
Filed: 2019-03-15
Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for estimating a position of a heart pump system in a patient. The system receives first data indicative of a time-varying motor current during a first time period. The motor current corresponds to an amount of current delivered to a motor, while the heart pump system is operating in the patient. The system receives second data indicative of a time-varying differential pressure during the first time period. The differential pressure is indicative of a position of the heart pump system relative to patient's heart. The system receives third data indicative of time-varying motor current during a second time period, and determines an estimate of differential pressure during the second period of time from the third data and a relationship between the fi rst data and the second data. The estimate is usable to predict the position of the heart pump system in the patient.
