Abstract: Methods, computer readable medium, and systems for mapping geologic features are described. In one example, a selection of a template describing a theoretical geologic depositional profile is received. In addition, paleo-elevations and/or paleo-depths of actual geologic facies in an actual geologic depositional profile are received. A graphical map that represents the actual geologic depositional profile is generated by mapping the received paleo-elevations and/or paleo-depths onto the theoretical depositional profile.

Abstract: A sequence in the earth, defined by an upper sequence boundary and a lower sequence boundary, where at least one of the boundaries includes an unconformity, is modeled by creating a restored space corresponding to the sequence by reconstructing a portion of the sequence missing because of the unconformity. The sequence in restored space has a restored top boundary having a position and a restored base boundary having a position. Stratigraphic layering is performed within the restored space sequence, using as guides the positions of the restored top boundary and the restored base boundary of the sequence in restored space.

Abstract: A pneumatic vehicle tire having an internal device to impart run-flat capability is described, the device being comprised of an outer ring member for rotational support when operating in the run-flat condition, and an inner support for the ring which is highly flexible before insertion within the tire and which becomes fixed and less flexible after insertion. In preferred aspects the ring is essentially a highly flexible porous body made up of successive circumferential windings of elastomer-coated filamentary material, and the support is a structure made up of a plurality of hinged bracing elements which move into a fixed position after insertion of the device within the tire.

Abstract: Correlating a measured and predicted log. At least some illustrative embodiments are methods including: plotting values of the measured log with respect to an ordinate axis and an abscissa axis, and the plotting in a first pane; plotting values of the predicted log with respect to the ordinate axis and the abscissa axis; selecting an inflection point of the predicted log; shifting horizontal position of the inflection point relative to the measured log responsive to the pointing device; changing dip of at least one modeled surface in a structural model based the relative location of the inflection point; recalculating the predicted log based on the change in dip, the recalculating creates a modified predicted log; and then plotting the modified predicted log. In some cases, the method may also include adding a fixed X, Y, Z point in the at least one modeled surface based on location of the inflection point.

Abstract: A system and method for drawing in a three-dimensional space. The drawings may include dots, line segments, arrows, polylines (open and closed), polygons, surfaces and 3D volumes. The method may include receiving user input that specifies a drawing in a displayed window and mapping the drawing into the 3D space. The mapping process may involve mapping the drawing onto a surface of an existing graphical object in the 3D space, or, mapping the drawing onto a user-specified plane in the 3D space. The drawing may represent a user's interpretation of a geological feature present on the graphical object surface. The graphical object may represent an object of significance in hydrocarbon exploration and production, e.g., an interpreted section or horizon in the earth's subsurface.

Abstract: A wheelchair includes a seat panel which is adjustable in a vertical direction upon the manipulation of a jacking assembly beneath the seat panel by an attendant or person other than the wheelchair occupant. During this shifting of the seat panel it is guided by engagement of its corners with four vertical frame members of the wheelchair. Armrests and side portions of the chair frame are pivotable to an out of the way position to form an enlarged planar surface area permitting at least partial reclining of the occupant and ready shifting to a lateral surface such as an adjacent bed. The wheelchair is alternatively supported upon four small wheels, at least two of which caster or, upon two small front wheels and two larger diameter drive wheels thereby offering the most efficient manipulation by either the occupant or an attendant.

Abstract: A system, method and memory medium for injecting positional information into a geological data set for improved modeling of surfaces in a geological formation. The method involves: (1) displaying a cross section of the formation through a selected subset of wells, where the displayed cross section includes well picks for the selected wells; (2) opening a gap in an unconformity of the displayed cross section, where the gap is opened at one or more wells that intersect the unconformity, where the gap represents non-deposition and/or material that is missing from the formation due to erosion; (3) receiving user input specifying positions of tops within the gap; and (4) closing the gap, where closing the gap includes calculating positions of restored tops based on the positions of the tops specified within the gap, where the positions of the restored tops are usable to model one or more surfaces in the formation.
