Patent number: 11957206Abstract: Described are soles for a shoe, in particular for a sports shoe, with a midsole. The midsole includes a first sole region, which includes particle foam. The midsole further includes a deformation region within the midsole, wherein the deformation region has a volume greater than that of a single expanded particle and is positioned so that it allows a sideward deformation of the material of the first sole region under a pressure load on the sole.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: adidas AGInventors: Tru Huu Minh Le, Angus Wardlaw, Dirk Meythaler, Stuart David Reinhardt, Darren Michael Wood, Charles Griffin Wilson, III, Juergen Weidl, Stanislav Goussev, Carl Arnese

Publication number: 20240027644Abstract: A method and system for azimuthal direction detection of a cable. The method may comprise disposing an electromagnetic logging tool into a wellbore, transmitting a primary electromagnetic field from the one or more transmitters, recording one or more secondary electromagnetic fields at the one or more receivers, and identifying a direction to the cable from the one or more secondary electromagnetic fields. The system may comprise one or more transmitters disposed on the electromagnetic logging tool and configured to transmit a primary electromagnetic field. The system may further comprise one or more receivers disposed on the electromagnetic logging tool and configured to record one or more secondary electromagnetic fields. Additionally, the system may further comprise an information handling system configured to identify a direction to an azimuthally localized reduction in metal of the conductor or increase in the metal of the conductor from the secondary electromagnetic fields.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Baris Guner, Ahmed Fouda, Kristoffer Thomas Walker, Stuart Michael Wood

Patent number: 10876381Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a perforating gun assembly. The perforating gun assembly includes a housing and at least one perforating charge disposed within the housing. Additionally, the perforating gun assembly includes a detonating cord disposed within the housing and ballistically coupled to the at least one perforating charge. Further, the perforating gun assembly includes a first coupling location and a second coupling location that are each configured to couple to an additional perforating gun assembly. A detonator assembly disposed within the first coupling location is also included in the perforating gun assembly. A detonator of the detonator assembly is positioned to fire in a direction away from the detonating cord disposed within the housing.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: HALLIBURTON ENERGY SERVICES, INC.Inventors: Darren Philip Walters, Thomas Burky, Stuart Michael Wood
