Title: Acoustic logging systems and methods employing multi-mode inversion for anisotropy and shear slowness
Inventor: COLLINS MARK V
IPC: G01V1/40
Filed: 2012-04-02
Abstract: Acoustic logging systems and methods are provided with multi-mode inversion for at least vertical shear slowness and shear anisotropy. At least some method embodiments acquire waveforms for multiple acoustic wave modes as a function of tool position in a borehole, derive position-dependent mode dispersion curves from the waveforms, match the derived dispersion curves with parameterized dispersion curves to determine a vertical shear slowness and a shear anisotropy as a function of position, and displaying a borehole log that represents at least one of the vertical shear slowness and the shear anisotropy as a function of position. The objective function employed for the inversion is evaluated across multiple wave propagation modes and mud slownesses and may employ an adaptive, frequency-dependent weighting based on distance between the derived dispersion curves and the parameterized dispersion curves.

Abstract: This intraocular lens (IOL) injector cartridge has a proximal opening in a main body for receiving an IOL. The main body has a lumen that extends longitudinally to a distal end having an opening smaller than the IOL. Passage through the lumen compresses or rolls the IOL so that when the distal end is inserted through a small incision in the eye the IOL can be expelled into the capsular bag. The distal end of the cartridge is beveled with a leading tip in front of a trailing heel. The characteristics of the beveled end are such that damage to the IOL is reduced. The bevel may be straight or curved and includes a distal face defined by the thickness of the distal end between the lumen and an exterior surface. The distal face may be flush with the bevel or chamfered. An inner corner angle between the distal face and the lumen is = 60° to reduce the chance of scratching the IOL as it passes out of the distal opening.

Abstract: Rooms, structures, vehicles, and other objects can be accurately diagrammed, often without performing a physical on-site inspection. Photographs of a room, structure, vehicle, or other object are uploaded to a computer having a processor. A base calibration measure is determined for a room, structure, vehicle, object, or component thereof, depicted in the photographs using at least one known dimension for items observable in the photographs. The base calibration measure is then used to determine dimensions of other areas, items, or objects depicted in such photographs, and to create at least one scale diagram of the subject matter of the photographs. Damages areas of the structure/vehicle/object can be assessed from the scale diagram. The scale diagram can then be used to calculate appropriate insurance payment amounts for damage claims.
