Abstract: A method and system for identifying bonding between a material and tubing. The method may include disposing an acoustic logging tool in a wellbore, wherein the acoustic logging tool comprises a transmitter, a receiver, or a transceiver, broadcasting a shaped signal with the transmitter such that the shaped signal interacts with a boundary of a casing and a material and recording a result signal from the boundary with the receiver. The method may further comprise identifying a cut-off time to be applied to the result signal, transforming the result signal from a time domain to a frequency domain, selecting one or more modes sensitive to a bonding at the boundary between the casing and the material, computing a decay rate of the one or more modes that were selected based at least one or more decay curves, and converting the decay rate to a bonding log.

Abstract: Enclosed herein are a method and system for reduction of a tool wave excited by a transmitter of the well logging tool. In one embodiment, a method comprises transmitting, by a primary transmitter, a primary acoustic wave into a geologic formation which excites a tool wave and a formation wave in the geologic formation, wherein the logging tool comprises a tool wave propagating factor which is different from a formation wave propagating factor; receiving, by one or more receivers, the formation wave and the tool wave; propagating waveform data associated with the received tool wave and formation wave based on a distance between the auxiliary receiver and a primary receiver; and reducing the tool wave in waveform data associated with the formation wave and the tool wave received by a primary receiver of the one or more receivers based on the propagated waveform data.

Abstract: The invention is generally related to a soft hydrogel ocular insert that is composed of at least one hydrogel material in fully hydrated state and can be comfortable for wearing. The hydrogel material comprises polymer chains, which are derived from at least one arylborono-containing hydrophilic copolymer and at least one mucoadhesive polymer, and cyclic boronic ester crosslinks for crosslinking those mucoadhesive polymer chains and arylborono-containing hydrophilic copolymer chains to form a 3-dimensional polymer network. Those cyclic boronic ester crosslinks can be hydrolyzed slowly in the tear of the eyes of a patient, resulting in the disintegration (dissolution) of the 3-dimensional polymer network and thereby providing mucoadhesisve polymers and optionally drugs impregnated in the hydrogel ocular insert in a controlled manner.

Abstract: RI/ORASE history and current transaction data are stored in partitioned fact tables and aggregation tables based on business calendar. Most of associated indexes are locally partitioned indexes. In a typical RI customer environment, partitioned transaction data takes 85% or more of overall RI database space. The benefits of partitioning include easy management of data, enhanced performance, and assistance with backup and recovery. A partition management system provides the ability to create initial partitions and manage existing partitions in ways that allow the size of the partitioned database to exceed a backup limit size.

Abstract: Fungal glucoamylases from Aspergillus fumigatus—expressed in Trichoderma reesei host cells (AfGATR) are provided. Trichoderma reesei host cells express AfGATRs at higher, or at least comparable, levels to natively expressed AfGA Aspergillus fumigatus. AfGATRs, including AfGA1TR and AfGA2TR, exhibit high activity at elevated temperatures and at low pH, so AfGATRs can be used efficiently in a process of saccharification in the presence of alpha-amylase, such as Aspergillus kawachii alpha-amylase (AkAA). AfGATRs advantageously catalyze starch saccharification to an oligosaccharide composition significantly enriched in DP1 (i.e., glucose) compared to the products of saccharification catalyzed by Aspergillus niger glucoamylase (AnGA) or native AfGA expressed in Aspergillus fumigatus. AfGATRs such as AfGA1TR, AfGA2TR or a variant thereof can be used at a lower dosage than AnGA and natively expressed AfGAs to produce comparable levels of glucose.
