Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of microporous carbon materials to perform selective separations of nitrogen in gas mixtures such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane and C2, C3 and C4+ hydrocarbons, with high efficiency, shaped of microspheres or cylinders from copolymers of poly (vinylidene chloride-co-methyl acrylate) with density of 1.3 to 1.85 g/cm·sup·3 or poly (vinylidene chloride-co-vinyl chloride) with density of 1.3 to 1.85 g/cm.sup.3, using two stages. The first stage consists of a surface passivation of the material by chemical attack in a highly alkaline alcohol solution, with the aim of effecting a precarbonization on the surface of the copolymer that during the pyrolysis process is not deformed and gradually develops microporosity. The material of the first stage presents, in the layer, percentages between 55% to 85% carbon, between 5% to 20% oxygen, and between 10% to 40% chlorine.

Abstract: The present invention solves the conventional problem that it is not possible to use one specific asset such as an avatar in two or more metaverses. An information processing apparatus for realizing one metaverse includes: an instruction receiving unit that receives an asset instruction, which is an instruction to use a specific asset; an asset acquiring unit that acquires compatible asset information corresponding to the one metaverse and the specific asset, from an asset storage unit in which compatible asset information regarding a compatible asset corresponding to one asset is stored in association with each of two or more metaverses; an asset configuring unit that configures a compatible asset that is used in the one metaverse, using the compatible asset information acquired by the asset acquiring unit; and an asset output unit that outputs the compatible asset configured by the asset configuring unit.

Abstract: Storing and retrieving subsurface rock physical property models for well drilling by generating estimated subsurface rock physical property models based on a respective set of seismic data, determining a stratigraphic classification for each model based on seismic interpretation data; storing the models associated classification in a database, determining characteristics of the seismic data used to generate the models, selecting from the database a subset of the models based on a similarity of the stratigraphic classification, determining measures of similarity between the characteristics of the seismic data used to generate each of subset of the models and a new set of seismic data and retrieving an estimated subsurface rock physical property model from the subset models based on the similarity measures.

Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for retrieving analogues using topological knowledge representation (TKR). In some embodiments, a TKR input query is built and/or validated using a domain-specific knowledge base (KB). A search database containing candidate analogues and corresponding pre-built TKRs is then searched to retrieve at least one analogue of the TKR input query using statistical analysis. In some embodiments, a system may build the TKR input query based on a seismic dataset. For example, the system may receive a seismic dataset, segment the seismic dataset and classify each region using a computer vision (CV) database and the KB, and build the TKR input query based on the segmented and classified seismic dataset. In some embodiments, the TKR input query may be input and/or edited by a user. For example, the TKR input query may be input and/or edited by the user and validated using the KB.

Abstract: A high efficiency saw chain for a saw including a cutting link and a drive link, the cutting link and a drive link selected to provide a high efficiency saw chain for a specified power range, based on ratios of components of the chain, such as the ratio of the height of the cutter to the pitch of the chain.

Abstract: An improved pick and pick holder assembly for use in mineral winning and the like. The improved pick and pick holder increases the effective life of a tool and pick holder by minimizing the shifting of the pick within the pick holder. The movement of the pick is minimized by front and rear bearing surfaces that remain positively engaged with front and rear bearing surfaces of the pick holder for loads applied to the pick that are predominantly inward and predominantly rearward.

Abstract: A transmission oil cooler adapter is configured to mount to a transmission case and direct transmission oil to and from a transmission oil cooler. The transmission oil cooler adapter includes a housing surrounding a body wherein the body further comprises a first side, a second side and a central opening. A first hose barb and a second hose barb are mechanically coupled to the first side. A longitudinal bore is connected to the first hose barb and traveling through the body. A blind bore is connected to the second hose barb connected to the central opening with a transverse bore. A bolt is inserted through the central opening and attaching the housing to the transmission case. The transmission oil travels through the body and into the transmission case then from the transmission case to the transmission oil cooler in order to cool the transmission oil.

Abstract: A bra with an adjustable and distributed support mechanism is disclosed. One aspect of certain embodiments includes support lifters that are adjustable using a tensioning mechanism.

Abstract: A tooth tip for a ground engaging tool has an elongate body disposed along a longitudinal axis extending from a relatively wide back surface to a relatively narrow front surface. The tooth tip may also have a cavity extending from the back surface towards the front surface and a bottom surface extending between the back surface and the front surface. The bottom surface may include a front face proximate the front surface and a back face proximate the back surface. The front face and the back face may be separated by a ridge. The tooth tip may also include a scallop positioned on the bottom surface extending from a first end proximate the ridge to a second end located towards the front surface.
