Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide enhanced low-density hollow glass bead (HGB) fluids, as well as methods for utilizing such HGB fluids for wellbore drilling operations, completion operations, and workover operations. Such low-density HGB fluids include the following combination of constituents: a base oil, an oil viscosifying agent, HGBs at a concentration in a range between 20 vol % and 60 vol %, an organophilic clay, a clay activator, a surfactant, and (optionally) an H2S scavenger. Moreover, the low-density HGB fluids are suitable for use as lower-density cap fluids for pressurized mudcap drilling (PMCD) operations, alternative drilling fluids for managed pressure drilling (MPD) operations, alternative drilling fluids for conventional drilling operations corresponding to very-low-pressure or highly-depleted reservoirs, and/or lightweight fluids for wellbore workover operations.

Abstract: Online advertisers may demand compliance with certain standards for the content of emails and other digital content with which its advertisements may be associated. Emails may contain control objects directing users to a web page showing content related to oil change coupons. However, in some systems, methods, and processes, a small variable proportion of users may instead be directed to a different sequence of pages to conduct a compliance check on the contents of the email received by the user. The compliance check sequence of pages may offer the user an incentive to forward the email to a specified email address for subsequent compliance review. Delivery of an incentive may be conditioned on successful receipt of the forwarded email.

Abstract: A dual energy x-ray imaging system and method of operation includes an artificial intelligence-based motion correction system to minimize the effects of motion artifacts in images produced by the imaging system. The motion correction system is trained to apply simulated motion to various objects of interest within the LE and HE projections in the training dataset to improve registration of the LE and HE projections. The motion correction system is also trained to enhance the correction of small motion artifacts using noise attenuation and subtraction image-based edge detection on the training dataset images reduce noise from the LE projection, consequently improving small motion artifact correction. The motion correction system additionally employs separate motion corrections for soft and bone tissue in forming subtraction soft tissue and bone tissue images, and includes a motion alarm to indicate when motion between LE and HE projections requires a retake of the projections.

Abstract: Methods and systems for circuit design are described. A tool may detect a timing violation on a signal path connected to a local clock buffer in a circuit model. The local clock buffer may be configured to generate a first clock signal having a first pulse width. The tool may determine a first metric associated with a first type of timing violation, and may determine a second metric associated with a second type of timing violation different from the first type of timing violation. The detected timing violation may be one of the first type and second type of timing violations. The tool may, based on the first metric and the second metric, determine whether to retain the generation of the first clock signal or to configure the local clock buffer to generate a second clock signal having a second pulse width different from the first pulse width.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for facilitating disabling an alarm in response to particular types of activity-indicative data. More specifically, activity-indicative data (e.g., measurements obtained by an electronic device) can be detected prior to a preset alarm time. Upon determining, based on the activity-indicative data, that a wakefulness condition is satisfied, the alarm can be disabled such that the alarm stimuli is not to be presented at the preset alarm time.
