Abstract: A drilling system for drilling a well. The drilling system may include a drillstring, a gas detector, and a computer system. The drillstring may include a downhole motor operable to rotate a drill bit and the downhole motor may include a stator and a rotor, at least one of the stator or the rotor comprising an elastomer compound. The gas detector may be operable to detect a gas indicative of deterioration of the elastomer compound. The computer system may be programmed to generate an indication based on the detection of the gas indicative of the deterioration by the gas detector.

Abstract: Green bodies are safely, economically and efficiently debound in a dual quartz reactor by subjecting them to a steady laminar upward flow of freshly distilled solvent so that the concentration difference of soluble binder at the green body/solvent interface is at all times maximized for optimum binder extraction as per Fick's laws of diffusion. Binder extraction rate is monitored by inline spectrophotometry of the reactor overflow. Following solvent extraction, the residual insoluble binder is thermally extracted without the need to transfer the green bodies to a different vessel.

Abstract: A golf club head with center of gravity proximate to the club head's sweet spot is disclosed. The golf head is composed of a strike face component made from a high-density material and a club body component made from a lightweight material. This combination improves the golfer's chances to strike the golf ball with the club head sweet spot and to land the ball closer to the hole on the green.

Abstract: An acetabular reamer of the type used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) to prepare a patient's acetabulum for implantation of a hip prosthesis is described. The acetabular reamer consists of a substantially hemispherical cup having a plurality of cutter-hole combinations aligned along one or more loxodromes on the surface of the hemispherical cup. The reamer, complete with integral back plate for connecting the reamer to a driver, is produced to net shape using a molding and sinterwelding technique.
