  • Publication number: 20230410429
    Abstract: A method and system for three-dimensional reconstruction of material properties of a target using remotely located physical sensors is disclosed. The special technique disclosed here, enables an order of magnitude improvement in computational speed and memory requirements over current state-of-the-art artificial intelligence-based systems. When compared against state-of-the-art methods that do not use artificial intelligence, the improvement in accuracy and resolution enables deployment of order of magnitude cheaper data acquisition systems and/or provide the practical capability to image targets previously considered out-of-bounds.

  • Publication number: 20230203941
    Abstract: A method for determining a location of a proppant in a subterranean formation includes obtaining a first set of data in a wellbore using a downhole tool. The proppant is pumped into the wellbore after the first set of data is obtained. The proppant is pumped while or after the subterranean formation is fractured. A second set of data is obtained in the wellbore using the downhole tool after the proppant is pumped into the wellbore. The first set of data and the second set of data include a gravitational field measurement. The first and second sets of data are compared, and in response to the comparison, the location of the proppant in the subterranean formation is determined.

  • Patent number: 11428839
    Abstract: A method includes acquiring a first set of data before a proppant is pumped into a wellbore. The method also includes acquiring a second set of data after the proppant is pumped into the wellbore. The method also includes determining a weighted average median of the first set of data and of the second set of data. The method also includes determining a location of the proppant in a subterranean formation based at least partially upon the weighted average medians.

  • Patent number: 8723337
    Abstract: A semiconductor chip (101) with bond pads (110) on a substrate (103) with rows and columns of regularly pitched metal contact pads (131). A zone comprises a first pair (131a, 131b) and a parallel second pair (131c, 131d) of contact pads, and a single contact pad (131e) for ground potential; staggered pairs of stitch pads (133) connected to respective pairs of adjacent contact pads by parallel and equal-length traces (132a, 132b, etc.). Parallel and equal-length bonding wires (120a, 120b, etc.) connect bond pad pairs to stitch pad pairs, forming differential pairs of parallel and equal-length conductor lines. Two differential pairs in parallel and symmetrical position form a transmitter/receiver cell for conducting high-frequency signals.
