    摘要: In some embodiments, an apparatus and a system, as well as a method and an article, may operate to receive a vibration signal having a frequency and a characteristic (e.g., voltage) proportional to the vibration amplitude of a tube in a vibrating tube density sensor. Further activity may include transmitting the density of a fluid flowing through the tube based on the frequency and an elastic modulus of the tube determined by the value of the characteristic. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are described.

    摘要: Logging systems and methods that employ nanosensors to obtain spectral measurements downhole. The nanosensors can be dispersed in borehole fluids (including cement slurries) that circulate, diffuse, or get injected in a borehole. Because the nanosensors have diameters on the order of 10 nm to 1000 nm, they readily penetrate into cracks, pores, and other voids where their carrier fluids can reach. The nanosensors transport light sources and recording media to measure spectra in these otherwise inaccessible regions. The nanosensors are then recovered and analyzed to reconstruct the measured spectra and determine relevant material characteristics. Among other things, spectral measurements can reveal the presence of certain elements and molecules in the formation and fluids, from which information scientists determine composition and phases of formation fluids and the formation itself. Certain triggering criteria may also be employed to enable the nanosensor measurements to be associated with specific locations, paths, and/or events.

    摘要: A method of using spectroscopic envelopes for determining components in a sample may include selecting spectroscopic envelopes and passing input light through a sample comprising at least one absorbing component is provided. The method includes measuring throughput light with a photo-detector and determining the concentration of the at least one absorbing component in the sample using the measured throughput, wherein at least one of the plurality of spectroscopic envelopes overlaps at least one absorption band of the at least one absorbing component in the sample. An apparatus for determining components in a sample including an input light source having a spectrum and a sample container having a fixed optical path-length is also provided. The apparatus may include a plurality of pre-selected spectroscopic envelopes to select spectral portions of the throughput light from the sample; and at least one photo-detector to measure the throughput light selected by the spectroscopic envelopes.
