摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for fabricating an integrally bladed rotor which comprises providing a hub section, preferably formed from a titanium based alloy, and welding an airfoil, also preferably formed from a titanium based alloy, to the hub section. The method further comprises partially aging and cooling the hub section prior to welding and aging the airfoil and the weld joint between the airfoil and the hub section subsequent to welding. The post welding aging step is preferably carried out using a novel encapsulated local airfoil heating device having a plurality of heating elements woven into a jacket made from a high temperature cloth material. The method of the present invention may also be used to repair integrally bladed rotors.

摘要:
Methods for determining the hardness and/or ductility of a material by compression of the material are provided as a first aspect of the invention. Typically, compression is performed on multiple sides of a geologic material sample in a contemporaneous manner. Devices and systems for performing such methods also are provided. These methods, devices, and systems can be combined with additional methods, devices, and systems of the invention that provide for the analysis of compounds contained in such samples, which can indicate the presence of valuable materials, such as petroleum-associated hydrocarbons. Alternatively, these additional methods, devices, and systems can also stand independently of the methods, devices, and systems for analyzing ductility and/or hardness of materials.

The invention described here provides new methods of analyzing materials, e.g., geologic materials, to identify wettability characteristics of such materials. Methods of the invention comprise analyzing the amount of easily extracted water obtained from samples of a material, such as a geologic area, analyzing release resistant water obtained from such samples or co-located samples, and/or optionally calculating or analyzing the combined water in or obtained from such samples, and utilizing such values alone or in comparison to one another to assess the wettability characteristics of the material.

The present disclosure relates to a golf swing training device that gives real-time visual feedback for obtaining correct golf club swing mechanics. Features and implementations include: (1) a number of alignment indicators such as disks or blocks capable of lying flat on the ground or a surface; (2) a cable, string, rope, or chain that connects the alignment indicators and that the alignment indicators are spaced along; (3) a positioning guide placed on the ground or a surface that indicates proper placement of the connected alignment indicators in order to create the proper arc shape of the connected alignment indicators; and (4) alignment markers on each alignment indicator to show the proper angle the golf club face should have at different points during a swing.

Methods for determining the locations/heights of fractures in a subterranean formation use a post-fracture log obtained with a compensated neutron or pulsed neutron logging tool. Utilizing predetermined relationships between tool count rates and associated near/far count rate ratios, the methods detect the presence of proppant containing high thermal neutron capture cross-section material, substantially eliminating proppant determination uncertainty resulting from changes in formation hydrogen index. In an interval of a well with given borehole and formation conditions, and not containing proppant, a relationship is developed between detector count rate and near/far ratio. This relationship is used to compute count rate from the ratio in intervals of the well possibly containing proppant and which have similar formation and borehole conditions. The count rate computed from the ratio is compared with the observed detector count rate, with proppant indicated from suppression in observed count rate relative to count rate computed from the ratio.
摘要:
A method for predicting hydrocarbon-bearing zones and estimating rock properties by analyzing fluids trapped in the pore spaces or adsorbed on the surfaces of rock samples. The trapped gases are removed under vacuum and analyzed by a mass spectrometer. Data peaks corresponding to petroleum constituent molecules provide an indication of presence and abundance of hydrocarbons. A decrease of the count rate over time is used to estimate permeability and other rock properties. Concentration ratios for selected constituents indicate oil quality and depth of the oil-water contact.
摘要:
Improved vertical resolution from pulse neutron logs is obtained by the disclosed process; a pulse of fast neutrons is emitted from a source and counts are taken at near and far dectors. This is done repetitively so that the interval between neutron bursts is conveniently divided into a number of gates, the preferred form being six contiguous gates. The count rate especially in gates 3-6 is obtained and is processed in a modified form to thereby enhance vertical resolution. While before vertical resolution was dependent in part in spacing of the detectors and source, improved vertical resolution is obtained to thereby locate thin beds which would otherwise be obscured.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for analyzing fluid inclusions. A sectioned mineral sample is mounted on a glass slide and placed in a vacuum chamber. An optical microscope is used to examine the sample through a window in the vacuum chamber to identify a single fluid inclusion. A linear rotary feedthrough includes a diamond stylus on the end thereof that is received in the vacuum chamber. The feedthrough is manipulated by the operator to urge the diamond stylus against the identified fluid inclusion thereby rupturing the same. The gases, including evaporated volatile liquids, released from the inclusion are analyzed by a mass spectrometer.
