Patent CA-2767686-A1 (CA)
Title: Reinforced frac tubing head
Inventor: UDIPI MAHESHA
IPC: E21B43/26
Filed: 2012-02-09
Abstract: A reinforced wellhead member (10) for use during fracing operations. The wellhead member (10) is preloaded at a flange section (66) by creating compressive stresses via a ring (70) that interacts with a tightening nut (64) on a bolt (62). The bolt (62) is rigidly attached to an adapter (60) which may also be modified to create stresses on the flange (66) of the wellhead member (10). The induced stresses counter the tensile stresses experienced by the flange (66) during fracing operations, allowing a standard wellhead member (10) to be utilized.

Abstract: A vascular graft incorporating a stent into a portion of its length. While various materials may be used for the vascular graft, the graft is preferably an ePTFE graft. The stent is preferably a self-expanding stent, although it may alternatively be a balloon expandable stent. The vascular graft preferably has a continuous inner tubular liner that extends between the opposing ends of the graft and provides a continuous luminal surface for blood contact that is uninterrupted by seams or joints. The length portion of the graft that does not include the stent has a greater wall thickness than does the portion including the stent.

Patent CA-2798944-A1 (CA)
Title: Analysis of clustering solutions
Inventor: NELSON JAMES CARL
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2012-12-21
Abstract: A computing system determines incremental values associated with a plurality of clustering solutions. Each of the clustering solutions groups stores of a retailer into clusters in a different way. For each clustering solution in the plurality of clustering solutions, the incremental value associated with the clustering solution indicates a difference between an estimated revenue associated with the clustering solution and revenue associated with a baseline clustering solution. The computing system then determines, based on the incremental values associated with the plurality of clustering solutions, the appropriate number of clusters. The clustering solutions that group the stores into more or fewer clusters than the appropriate number of clusters tend to be associated with incremental values that are the same or lower than the clustering solutions that group the stores into the appropriate number of clusters.
