Patent CA-2714447-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DATZ R MICHAEL
IPC: F21K99/00
Filed: 2010-09-03
Abstract: An LED beacon has a plurality of LED's mounted on opposite sides of a square post in the same horizontal plane. Each LED projects the light there from through an optical system. The optical system is provided by a collimating lens, preferably a cylindrical fresnel lens and a condensing, coupling lens for each LED also mounted on the post. The optical system provides enhanced illumination distributed in a cylindrical beam emanating from the fresnel collimating lens. The illumination is enhanced in that the condensing lens shifts the focus of the collimating lens to the location of the LEDs.  Nominally, the fresnel collimating lens is focused at the center of the array of LEDs (the middle of the post). The condensing lens shifts the focus radially outward to the light emitting area of the LED, and the condensing lens captures the light from the LEDs and distributes the light uniformly on the fresnel collimating lens, thus efficiently utilizing the LED light and providing an intense beacon suitable for use as a warning light on vehicles and stationary applications. The coupling lens constitutes adapter optics which may be used in other warning light applications to condense and redirect focus of LEDs, such as for example, where the cylindrical fresnel lens is replaced by a rotating or stationary reflector to form an LED beam beacon.

Abstract: Architecture that facilitates the combining and presentation of location information with presence information in a communications system. The location information can be virtual location information published from a location source and/or associated location systems to a presence system. The presence system then makes the virtual location information available to end users as participants to a conferencing session, for example, or as invites to the session. The location information and/or the presence information can be made active (e.g., a hyperlink) such that when selected as presented to a user, automatically joins the user to the session.

Abstract: An operating tool uses programmed fluid logic provided by use of flow paths including pre-determined spaced ports and varying orifice sizes to provide discreet pressures and fluid flow rates upon pressure differential sensitive devices, such as a membrane or piston, in operative communication with an operative sleeve to manipulate one or more secondary tools, and/or to perform a service, such as, for example, acidzing or stimulation or injecting proppants within the well. The tool remains "immune"  to internal well hydraulic or hydrostatic pressures, if desired, until the fluid logic is achieved. The fluid logic is adjustable for activation of tools sequentially by making changes in the port spacing and fluid relief profiles so that all tools can be actuated by a single geometry of fluid flow paths, or each tool can have its own unique fluid flow geometry so it becomes hydraulically coded.

Title: System and method for extracting power from fluid
Inventor: SHERRER GORDON DAVID
IPC: F03D3/02
Filed: 2008-05-05
Abstract: Smooth, preferably variable-sweep fluid collection device surfaces disposed into opposition with wind, river, surf, ocean or tidal currents generate enhanced velocity fluid flows at length driven into onboard work-extracting disc turbines at advan-tageous angles of attack. Keyed to shafts turning freely through optionally extendable volutes, disc turbines comprising a dense population of smooth, axially fixed or adjustably spaced discs conducting preferably laminar flow between adjacent elements de-velop significant torque through boundary layer adhesion and viscous shear-stress between fluid layers. Exhaust of disc turbine throughput into divergent channels drafting into external currents of initially higher than ambient velocity and lower pressure may reduce turbine discharge backpressure, rapidly clear system throughput, and allow normally disadvantageous drag to be utilized to develop greater work generation. Gainfully turning with, instead of at odds to natural or anthropogenic currents provided, disc turbines utilized as disclosed may provide unprecedented renewable energy from fluids in motion.

Abstract: An approach is provided for a multi-component seismic data processing that separates P-type and S-type seismic waves in an affine coordinate system. A method for separating and composing seismic waves comprises: determining base vectors of the seismic waves;  transforming and separating the seismic wave in an affine coordinate system; and obtaining a signal with true amplitudes and eliminating a mode leakage phenomenon. Therefore, the method achieves the wave separation and recovers the amplitudes of separated waves simultaneously, which reduces noises to provide more precisely seismic data and to satisfy the requirement of seismic data analysis and processing.
