  • STABLE GROUNDING SYSTEM TO AVOID CATASTROPHIC ELECTRICAL FAILURES IN FIBER-REINFORCED COMPOSITE AIRCRAFT
    Publication number: 20170307672
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described to detect, measure, and determine the presence of unknown Groundloop currents flowing through unidentified circuit pathways within the wiring system distributed within a portion of a fuselage of an airplane substantially made from fiber-reinforced composite materials to avoid catastrophic failures of the electrical system within such an airplane.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 13, 2015
    Publication date: October 26, 2017
    Applicant: SMART DRILLING AND COMPLETION, INC.
    Inventors: WILLIAM BANNING VAIL, III, TOMISLAV SKERL, PAUL B. SCHWINBERG, STEVEN T. MOMII

  • Oil well logging tools measuring paramagnetic logging effect for use in open boreholes and cased well bores
    Patent number: 4792757
    Abstract: Nucleons which are chemically bound to oil and water in geological formations possess magnetic moments which align in the earth's magnetic field causing the natural nuclear paramagnetism of the formation. An A.C. magnetic field at the Larmor frequency is repetititively applied to the formation adjacent to a borehole resulting in a repetitive excitation-relaxation process of the nucleons present within an "excitation zone" which results in an amplitude modulation of the paramagnetism within this zone. This physical process results in an amplitude modulation of the earth's magnetic field in the vicinity of the excitation zone of the formation and is called the Paramagnetic Logging Effect (PLE). The PLE may be measured with logging tools in open holes and within cased well bores.
