Title: Systems and methods for initiating annular obstruction in a subsurface well
Inventor: CORBETT THOMAS G
IPC: E21B23/06
Filed: 2010-10-18
Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems and methods for initiating annular obstructions in wells used in, or in support of, enhanced oil recovery operations-particularly enhanced oil recovery (EOR) efforts involving steam injection (e.g., steam flooding). In at least some instances, system and method embodiments of the present invention utilize one or more passively-activated annular obstruction devices (and/or hybrid active/passive devices) for inducing annular obstruction, wherein the associated passive or hybrid activation is at least partially controlled by thermal means such that it can be deemed to be thermally-directed or thermally-controlled. Such thermally-directed passive activation can afford considerably more control over the annular obstruction process and, correspondingly, over the overall steam injection into the formation and associated reservoir-thereby providing more efficient recovery of hydrocarbons.

Inventor: AHMED FARHAD
IPC: G01R31/36
Filed: 2005-11-01
Abstract: A method and a system for accurately reporting battery capacity that do not rely on a coulomb counter are disclosed herein. The method comprises the steps of determining if the battery is in a transition phase and determining the battery capacity based on a transition phase battery capacity model when the battery is in the transition phase. The transition phase occurs upon one of attachment of the battery to a power source and disconnection of the battery from the power source. The behaviour described by the transition phase battery capacity model approaches the behaviour of real transition phase battery capacity so as to minimize the error of the determined battery capacity. The method and system accurately report battery capacity during a transition phase from discharging to charging and a transition phase from charging to discharging.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions comprising anti-CD74 and/or anti-HLA-DR antibodies for treatment of GVHD and other immune dysfunction diseases. In preferred embodiments, the anti-CD74 and/or anti-HLA-DR antibodies are effective to deplete antigen-presenting cells, such as dendritic cells. Most preferably, administration of the therapeutic compositions depletes all subsets of APCs, including mDCs, pDCs, B cells and monocytes, without significant depletion of T cells. In alternative embodiments, administration of the therapeutic compositions suppresses proliferation of allo-reactive T cells, while preserving cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific, CD8+ memory T cells. The compositions and methods provide a novel conditioning regimen for preventing aGVHD and/or treating chronic GVHD, without altering preexisting anti-viral immunity.

Abstract: Wedge shaped elements form a ring structure that can increase in diameter for a grip using relative axial motion of adjacent segments. The adjacent seal is further separated from access to the edges of the adjacent segments that move relatively by ring segments attached to the wide dimension of the segments that face the seal. The ring segments move out with the wedge elements to which they are attached so that in the set position of the seal there is an enhanced barrier against the surrounding tubular with the ring segments. The ring segments further block access of the seal under compressive loading to the interface locations between the wedge shaped elements so that their relative axial movement does not trap a portion of the seal and initiate cracks in the seal that can lead to leakage past the seal.

Title: Optimized deblocking filters
Inventor: HASKELL BARIN GEOFFRY
IPC: H04N7/50
Filed: 2011-08-10
Abstract: An encoder executes an iterative search method for selecting deblocking parameters for coded video. According to the method, a decoded picture may be deblocked according to parameters associated with a multi-dimensional deblocking vector and an error, called the "deblocking error" may be estimated therefrom. If the estimated error exceeds a predetermined threshold, then alternate deblocking vectors may be created, each advanced from the current deblocking vector in a respective dimension. The method may deblock the decoded picture according to each advanced vector and may estimate errors from each of the deblocking of each advanced vector. Finally, the deblocking vector may be revised for a next iteration according to a gradient derived from the estimated deblocking errors of the vector dimensions. This gradient-based search method may converge on a final set of deblocking parameters in an efficient manner.
