摘要:
A method of collecting geothermal steam using Acoustic Emission Microseismic Activity (AE/MA) measurement includes the steps of (a) surveying an AE wave emitted in subsurface cracks to obtain the size of a water permeable geothermal reservoir by analyzing the AE wave, (b) further surveying the AE wave emitted in and around the periphery of the geothermal reservoir, (c) operating the wellhead valve of the geothermal well connected with the geothermal reservoir, thereby extending or preventing the extension of the geothermal reservoir in accordance with the information obtained in step (a) and/or step (b), thereby stably obtaining a predetermined quantity of steam of high quality. Thus, the method can stably obtain geothermal steam of high quality by accurately surveying or monitoring subsurface cracks by an AE measurement technique and propagating the subsurface cracks or suppressing the propagation of the cracks.

A method of drilling a well by utilizing AE/MA measurement which has the steps of monitoring an AE wave emitted at the periphery of the well, and drilling the well without lost circulation by providing lost circulation preventing means in the well if the energy of the AE wave emitted at the periphery of the well increases. Thus, the method can confirm a lost circulation layer, i.e., the size, the place and the direction of the underground crack to further determine whether further drilling is necessary or not.

Earth's crustal stress is measured by drilling a bore-hole in rock body, producing a longitudinal crack at a selected portion thereof with or without a natural traverse crack through intermittent application of hydraulic pressure thereat while measuring the pressure at different stages of crack production, producing an artificial traverse cracks through the use of a prenotch, determining orientations of the cracks thus produced by inspecting the bore-hole surface conditions, and numerically analyzing the crack orientations and the pressures at different stages of crack production.

A job processing device capable of preventing a poor communication while keeping the sufficient communication speed. The job processing device is connected to a host, which has a host interface supporting a first connection mode for communicating in a first communication speed and a second connection mode for communicating in a second communication speed being slower, and processes a job transmitted from the host. A device interface has the first and second connection modes. A connection control means changes the device interface from the second connection mode to the first connection mode when the device interface is connected to the host interface in the second connection mode and when a first operation mode for processing a job is shifted to a second operation mode being lower in power consumption. A mode control means shifts to the second operation mode from the first operation mode after changing the connection mode.

A method for transferring image data to be transferred is switched depending on whether print setting is performed to image data transferred from a data processing apparatus. The the control method includes performing print setting to image data to be transferred to the image forming apparatus, determining whether the print setting is performed to the image data according as the data processing apparatus becomes communicable with the image forming apparatus, and controlling the data processing apparatus to transmit the image data and the print setting to the image forming apparatus in a case where it is determined that the print setting is performed, and transmit the image data to be printed according to the print setting set by the image forming apparatus to the image forming apparatus in a case where it is determined that the print setting is not performed.

At least one transmitting coil 1 and at least one receiving coil 2 are disposed along the bore axis 18 of a borehole 7 such that these coils are inclined and face each other, thus causing these coils to have directivity for examining electric characteristics of a formation around the borehole. More specifically, a method of and an apparatus for directional induction logging are provided, which permit measurement of the electric conductivity distribution of a formation in the circumferential direction in a range of several meters around the borehole and also imaging reflecting the electric conductivity.

An acoustic emission is detected by a pickup, and its output is converted by a A/D converter into a digital signal, which is provided to a fast Fourier transform processor. The fast Fourier transform processor comprises a cascade connection of a plurality of operation stages, each composed of first and second input memories, a third memory having stored therein a rotation vector and an arithmetic unit for performing a Butterfly operation through using the pipelined architecture. In each stage one of the first and second input memories and the third memory are read out and the Butterfly operation is carried out on the pipelined basis. The operation result is written into that one of the first and second input memories of the next operation stage which has not been read out; thus all the operation stages perform a pipelined operation as a whole. The power of a spectrum obtained as the operation result of the last operation stage is calculated, obtaining a signal corresponding to the acoustic emission.

An information processing apparatus that is capable of controlling electric energy consumption with sufficient accuracy. An execution unit executes a job. A calculation unit calculates electric energy consumption in a period from a start of execution of the job by the execution unit to an end except a period from interruption of execution of the job by the execution unit to restarting, as electric energy consumption at the time of job execution.
