Granted: 2012-03-08
Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically controlling bandwidth of connections are described. In some embodiments, a proxy for one or more connections may allocate, distribute, or generate indications of network congestion via one or more connections in order to induce the senders of the connections to reduce their rates of transmission. The proxy may allocate, distribute, or generate these indications in such a way as to provide quality of service to one or more connections, or to ensure that a number of connections transmit within an accepted bandwidth limit. In other embodiments, a sender of a transport layer connection may have a method for determining a response to congestion indications which accounts for a priority of the connection. In these embodiments, a sender may reduce or increase parameters related to transmission rate at different rates according to a priority of the connection.

Title: Radial rotary dryer
Inventor: KIM YOUNG
IPC: F26B11/04
Filed: 2009-03-12
Granted: 2013-05-23
Abstract: The present radial rotary dryer improves drying performance for sludge or other material to be dried, prevents blockage and simplifies equipment. The present apparatus is a radial rotary dryer wherein the space formed by inner and outer drums is divided by a plurality of radiation plates. When material to be dried is placed in the inner drum, the material moves to the center and is dried by hot blowing air in the divided radial space while the drum rotates, and is then discharged to the opposite side by movement of the inner drum. The drying performance is improved by attaching a lift plate on one surface of each radiation plate, attaching a hammer on the other surface of each radiation plate in an axial direction, and crushing the material using free-fall impact energy according to the rotation of the drum. Therefore, the present invention is a radial rotary dryer which enables best drying performance, least installation space and a crushing function, that can be used for sewage sludge, food waste or multipurpose industrial drying.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for a User Equipment (UE) to transmit in a control channel ACKnowledgement signals associated with a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest process (HARQ-ACK signals) in response to receiving Transport Blocks (TBs) transmitted from a base station. The UE conveys the HARQ-ACK information by selecting one resource from multiple resources in the control channel and by selecting a constellation point of the modulation scheme for the HARQ-ACK signal. Transmission diversity is supported using different control channel resources that are already available to the UE without configuring additional resources. Design principles are described to optimally map the HARQ-ACK information to control channel resources and modulation constellation points for a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system and for a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) system.

Title: A rapid kill and restoration system for blowout wells
Inventor: LIU XIANHUA
IPC: E21B33/02
Filed: 2011-07-28
Granted: 2015-03-19
Abstract: Well blowouts, such as happened in the PTTEPAA Montara gas well in the Timor Sea in August 2009 and the BP Macondo oil well in the Gulf of Mexico in April 2010, caused colossal disasters. The existing top kill technique by pumping in kill- weight mud failed. The relief well technique worked, however it was very costly and very late due to drilling the relief well. This invention is a rapid and reliable kill and restoration technique and its implementation system for the well blowout accidents. It uses solid particles to block, suppress and greatly reduce the blowout flow to gain time for repair or replacement of the damaged blowout preventer and other devices, and connection of production pipelines; It then takes out some of the solid particles to restore well production. In such a way, environmental damage is greatly reduced and the well is kept as a valuable production asset. While any shape of solid particles may be used, the ball shape is an optimum for the kill and restoration operation; hence kill balls are the recommended solid particles. The kill procedure is to sequentially release large, medium and small density balls into the blowout well. Balls of different densities can be made of different materials such as lead, iron, stone or rubber and can have a shell cover made of iron, steel or other environmental friendly material. An implementation system for the kill procedure consists of a tubing system, a blower or a pump, a ball injection device and a cage. The transporting fluid can be air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oil or other fluid depending on the operation safety assessment in regarding to the specific well blowout situation. The cage mounted on the tubing and sits on top of the well will temporally contain the blown out balls at the early stage of the kill process. Balls in the cage will fall down to the well as the flow is reduced. A technique for taking out some of the balls from the well to restore production is carried out by a tubing system, a pump and a balls storage tank.
