Abstract: Predictive lossless coding provides effective lossless image compression of both photographic and graphics content in image and video media. Predictive lossless coding can operate on a macroblock basis for compatibility with existing image and video codecs. Predictive lossless coding chooses and applies one of multiple available differential pulse-code modulation (DPCM) modes to individual macro-blocks to produce DPCM residuals having a closer to optimal distribution for run-length, Golomb Rice RLGR entropy encoding. This permits effective lossless entropy encoding despite the differing characteristics of photographic and graphics image content.

Title: Method and apparatus for varying the density of drilling fluids in deep water oil drilling applications
Inventor: DE BOER LUC
IPC: E21B21/10
Filed: 2003-11-03
Granted: 2012-07-10
Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling drilling mud density at a location either at the seabed (or just above the seabed) or alternatively below the seabed of wells in deep water and ultra deep water applications are disclosed. The present invention combines abase fluid of lesser density than the mud required at the wellhead to produce a diluted mud in the riser. By combining the appropriate quantities of drilling mud with base fluid, a riser mud density at or near the density of seawater may be achieved. The present invention also includes a wellhead injection device for attachment to the wellhead and for injecting the base fluid into the rising drilling mud at a location below the seabed. The riser charging lines are used to carry the low density base fluid to the injection device for injection into the drilling mud below the seabed. The cuttings are brought to the surface with the diluted mud and separated in the usual manner. The diluted mud is then passed through a centrifuge system to separate the heavier drilling mud from the lighter base fluid.

Granted: 2011-05-03
Abstract: The invention relates to an ultra-lightweight heat and flame resistant (or retardant) composite panel having a three-dimensional artistic design on the surface, and a method for making the lightweight heat and flame resistant composite panel. One aspect of the invention is a system and method for creating a composite panel from high performance heat and flame resistant materials, such as aramid polyamide polymers (for example, NOMEX® from DuPont) or any other fire-retardant or fire-retardant treated material, which can be bonded to another layer of fire-retardant material such as paper, fabric, honeycomb or foam. The fire-retardant materials can be bonded by a welding machine such as an ultrasonic machine, or attached by a thermoplastic, thermoset, thermobond or other fire resistant adhesive. The thickness of the finished composite may be around 1/16~1/4 inch. The composite can then be decorated, and carved (or embossed) with or without inserting a fire-retardant material between the layers prior to carving to give a three-dimensional decorative surface. The steps of decorating and carving may be performed in either sequence-coloring followed by carving, or carving followed by coloring. Alternatively, one or more layers may be printed prior to forming the composite. A clear finish with fire retardant agent is then placed on the surface of the composite.
