Abstract: A gas and liquid separator includes a wet gas feedstock ingress, a plurality of separating baffles, a dried gas egress, and a first liquid egress. A wet gas feedstock under pressure enters the separator through the wet gas feedstock ingress. The wet gas feedstock ingress adiabatically and isentropically converges the wet gas feedstock and then accelerates the wet gas feedstock into the separation baffles. The separation baffles separate the constituents of the wet gas feedstock. The separated, dry gas egresses the separator through a straw of the dried gas egress that extends into the interior of a separation chamber of the separator from the top thereof. The separated liquids egress from the separator through the first liquid egress.

Abstract: Improvements in a molecular-dynamic simulator provide ways to save energy during computation and reduce die area consumed on an integrated circuit. Examples of such improvements include different interaction modules for different ranges, the use of streaming along rows while multicasting along columns in an array of interaction modules, the selection of computation units based on balancing computational costs and communication costs, the use of fences in networks that connect computation units, and the use of bond calculators to carry out specialized bond calculations.

Abstract: Manual human processing of documents often generates results that are subjective and include human-error. The cost and relatively slow speed of manual, human analysis makes it effectively impossible or impracticable to perform document analysis at the scale, speed, and cost desired in many industries. Accordingly, it may be advantageous to employ objective, accurate rule-based techniques to evaluate and process documents. This application discloses data processing equipment and methods specially adapted for a specific application: analysis of the breadth of documents. The processing may include context-dependent pre-processing of documents and sub-portions of the documents. The sub-portions may be analyzed based on word count and commonality of words in the respective sub-portions. The equipment and methods disclosed herein improve upon other automated techniques to provide document processing by achieving a result that quantitatively improves upon manual, human processing.

Abstract: A method for drilling a subterranean wellbore includes rotating a drill string in the subterranean wellbore. The drill string includes a drill collar, a drill bit, and survey sensors (e.g., a triaxial accelerometer set and a triaxial magnetometer set) deployed therein. The triaxial accelerometer set and the triaxial magnetometer set make corresponding accelerometer and magnetometer measurements while drilling (rotating). These measurements are synchronized to obtain synchronized accelerometer and magnetometer measurements and then further processed to compute at least an inclination and an azimuth of the subterranean wellbore while drilling. The method may further optionally include changing a direction of drilling the subterranean wellbore in response to the computed inclination and azimuth.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generation and use of document analysis architectures are disclosed. A model builder component may be utilized to receiving user input data for labeling a set of documents as in class or out of class. That user input data may be utilized to train one or more classification models, which may then be utilized to predict classification of other documents. Trained models may be incorporated into a model taxonomy for searching and use by other users for document analysis purposes.
