Abstract: One form of an apparatus for controlling a fuel gauge in a circuit mode of a vehicle includes: a vehicle mode determiner configured to compare a damping time with a response time, and to determine whether a driving mode of the vehicle is a general mode or a circuit mode; a fuel amount calculator configured to calculate a current fuel amount of the vehicle based on fuel consumption (FCO) by the engine or a change in the resistance of a fuel sender based on the driving mode of the vehicle; and a fuel gauge controller configured to control the fuel gauge based on the calculated current fuel amount, wherein the response time is a time taken for the fuel gauge to actually descend to a state ‘empty’ from a state ‘full’ due to fuel consumption by an engine.

The antimicrobial susceptibility test is rapidly performed based on an analysis of changes in morphology and growth pattern of a microbial cell under different concentrations of various antimicrobial agents, and this makes it possible to obtain highly reliable test results faster by six to seven times than the standard method recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations for identifying fracture barriers in a well. The operations include converting rebound hardness values of a rock specimen from the well to unconfined compressive strength (UCS) values, where each of the rebound hardness values corresponds to a respective coordinate of a measurement grid imposed on the specimen. The operations further include, for each column of the grid, plotting the UCS values versus depth. Further, the operations include mapping, based on a maximum UCS value and a minimum UCS value, a relative strength contour plot for the specimen. Yet further, the operations include mapping, based on a fixed strength range, an absolute strength contour plot for the specimen. In addition, the operations include determining, based on the relative strength contour, the absolute strength contour, and mineralogy of the rock specimen, that the rock specimen is indicative of a fracture barrier in the well.

Abstract: A system for and a method of measuring ultrasonic wave velocities in a subterranean core specimen is provided. Ultrasonic wave velocities are measured from the side surfaces (faces) of a polygonal-shaped core specimen having at least ten sides or faces. Stress is introduced to the core specimen by hydraulic rams associated with each set of opposing sides. As stress is applied, ultrasonic waves are introduced to at least one side of the set of opposing sides and the wave transmitted through the core specimen is measured. Subsequently, the wave velocity for the ultrasonic wave can be calculated based on the measurements taken. Also, elastic properties associated with the core specimen can be calculated.
