摘要:
A method of analyzing Stoneley waveforms obtained in a well logging operation, includes analyzing the waveforms by means of multiparameter inversion using one or more externally provided parameters to obtain borehole fluid slowness and borehole fluid attenuation. and analyzing the Stoneiey waveforms by multiparameter inversion using the borehole fluid slowness and borehole fluid attenuation and the externally provided parameters so as to determine a parameter, such as mobility, related to permeability of the formation being logged. Complex conjugate back propagation [using a maximum likelihood/least mean squares error estimator or] by applying Prony's method and fitting model-derived dispersion curves can be used to obtain mobility.
摘要:
A method is provided for deriving optimized operating parameter settings for industrial furnaces of different designs as commonly used in power generation that will achieve robust and desirable operations (for example, low NOx and low CO emissions while maintaining specific furnace exit gas temperatures). The method includes the application of recursive partitioning algorithms to historical process data to identify critical combinations of ranges of operational parameter (combinations of settings) that will result in robust (low-variability) desirable (optimized) boiler performance, based on empirical evidence in the historical data. The method may include the application of various algorithms for recursive partitioning of data, as well as the consecutive application of recursive partitioning methods to prediction residuals of previous models (a methodology also known as boosting), as well as the application of other prediction algorithms that rely on the partitioning of data (support vector machines, naive Bayes classifiers, k-nearest neighbor methods).
