The paper describes the role of 3D seismic for oil characterization and exploration. In recent years Luff Exploration Co. has learned that modern processing techniques can extract significantly greater information than was possible when much of the 2D seismic data were recorded in the area. New processing techniques that can...
In orthopedic and trauma surgery it is important to verify the replacement of dislocated fracture fragments, the reconstruction of glenoid surfaces and the positioning of osteosynthetic material. Mispositioning of screws within a joint, for example, can result in complications such as painful, posttrauma arthroses. And preventing such complications can obliterate...
The objective of the paper is to find ways of improving the mechanical properties and simulating the mechanical behavior of knitted fabrics and knitted reinforced composites, so that the engineering design of such materials and structures may be improved. This paper presents a 2D model based on FEA (finite element...
Two-dimensional (2-D) cranial ultrasound US is the principal method for the detection of cerebral injury in the newborn. The aim of this paper was to compare 2-D sonographic methods with more advanced 3-D magnetic resonance imaging MRI for assessing brain structure. From July 1998 to November 2000, they conducted a...
The paper presents digitally created 3D model of metal surface. This surface has stationary and ergodic character. Its model represents surface after laser treatment. Crosssections 2D are quasi-periodic. Fractal structure was imposed on the surface. Abbot- Firestone Pmrc and height distribution curves zx in 2D and 3D systems (according to...
The 3D imaging of the middle ear facilitates better understanding of the patient's anatomy. Cross-sectional slices, however, often allow a more accurate evaluation of anatomical structures, as some detail may be lost through post processing. In order to demonstrate the advantages of combining both approaches, we performed computed tomography CT...
Three-dimensional (3-D) seismic data can improve the probability of a successful drilling program, but it adds significantly to a project's cost. Thus, the value and limitations of 2-D versus 3-D data must be clearly understood to determine when/if 3-D data are required. Also, Because of the cost involved, operators must...
Digital waveguide mesh models have provided an accurate and efficient method of modeling the properties of many resonant structures, including acoustic spaces. 2-D rectilinear and triangular mesh structures have been used extensively in the past to model plates and membranes and as potential analogues to 2-D acoustic spaces. This paper...
This paper studies the operational utility of fusing synthetic aperture radar SAR imagery and digital terrain map DTM data. Specifically, the two-dimensional (2D) display of SAR imagery was compared against a two and a half dimension (21/2D) display of SAR overlaid on corresponding DTM data. The measures employed in this...
The temporal bone anatomy is difficult to comprehend by looking at cross-sectional CT-images alone. 3D-visualization can help to understand the spatial relationship of the bony parts of the skull base, nerve structures and the middle and inner ear. 2D-images, however, often reflect the anatomy more accurately as some detail is...
This study uses a spectroscopic method that was applied to measure the 2-D temperature distribution of luminous flames during the spray combustion of heavy oil in the test furnace. The method is based on the two-color thermometry, in which the ratio of two spectral intensities of continuum emission is taken...
Raytec Metals Corp. (the "Company") (TSX-V: RAY) is pleased to announce the receipt of its first exploration permitfrom the government of Saskatchewan on the Company's KP441 Potash claim incentral Saskatchewan. The company is now in the process of awarding acontract for the commencement of 2D and 3D seismic work...
PORT TOWNSEND, Wash. -- Intelli-Check - Mobilisa, Inc. (AMEX:IDN), will feature its IM2700 - Transportation Worker Card Reader at the American Association of Port Authorities Port Security Seminar and Expo in Houston, Texas, on July 17th. The device reads the newly developed Transportation Worker Identification Credential, or TWIC,...
Junex (TSX VENTURE: JNX) has recently commenced its 2008-2009 exploration program that foresees the investment of about $10 million in the Saint Lawrence Lowlands over the next 18 months. The exploration operations undertaken by Junex are aimed at evaluating the natural gas potential of Shales in the Lorraine and Utica...
On July 1, the New York State Court of Appeals affirmed the local case of People v. Estrella, NY Slip Op 05962 (facts are found in the decision of People v. Estrella, 48 A.D.3d 1283 [Fourth Dept. 2008]). The Rochester police wanted to stop a Mercedes Benz...
-400GB Drive Cuts Acoustic Noise During Data Seek By 2dB(*1) For near Silent Operation- TOKYO -- Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced a new line-up of high performance 2.5-inch HDDs, including a low-noise flagship model that boosts areal density to 477Mbit/mm2 (308Gbpsi) to achieve a capacity of 400GB on...
DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/2d16a0/security_hardware) has announced the addition of the "Security Hardware Market 2007-2010" report to their offering. The increase in instances of identity theft and network breaches, growth in enterprise networks and online data transfers, and the need to be connected securely 24x7 are...
For a trio of Chester County car thieves, the unlocked black Mercedes Benz in Charlestown Township was a trove of unexpected bonuses: its keys, a $3,800 Tiffany diamond ring, a $1,000 Acer laptop and a $600 Louis Vuitton briefcase. The group typically grabbed vehicles just for joyriding, ditching them in...
3D Screens over 3.7X Revenue of 2D Screens LOS ANGELES -- RealD 3D, the world's leading 3D experience, brought in 55% of the total box office for Warner Bros. Pictures/New Line Cinema's Journey to the Center of the Earth, which earned an estimated $21.02M in its opening weekend....
Pantera Petroleum, Inc. ("Pantera" or the "Company") (OTCBB: PTPE)(FRANKFURT: 4PP) is pleased to announce that the Company has completed the reprocessing and interpretation of approximately 178 miles of 2-D seismic data located on its Pantera Concession, consisting of approximately 988,000 acres in northern Paraguay.
