  • System and methods of acoustic monitoring
    Patent number: 9705607
    Abstract: A high performance computing strategy along with the capability to integrate various layers of data within a modeling framework incorporates various tools such as ambient noise, vessel and animal data to measure acute and chronic noise levels, detect and classify marine mammal vocalizations, and compute various metrics such as receive levels, signal excess, masking and communication space over relatively large temporal and spatial scales.
    Type: Grant

  • Hydrocarbon synthesis from lower alkanes at advanced temperatures and high pressures
    Patent number: 5073666
    Abstract: Upon a pressure vessel reactor, lower alkanes such as methane and propane subjected to temperatures of up to 800 K and pressures up to 70,000 psi (467 MPa), isomerize even in the absence of catalyst to produce a variety of alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons containing up to twelve carbon atoms.
