Additive Manufacture of Wellbore Tubulars
Provided are systems and method for casing a wellbore of a hydrocarbon well. The casing including disposing a casing print head in a wellbore of a hydrocarbon well, and conducting a downhole casing operation including operating the casing print head to eject casing material to form a casing tubular in the wellbore, and operating the casing print head to eject casing liner material into an annular region located between the casing tubular and a wall of the wellbore to form a casing liner in the annular region, the casing tubular and the casing liner forming a casing of the wellbore.
Additive Manufacture of Wellbore Lining
Provided are systems and methods for forming a casing liner in a wellbore of a hydrocarbon well. The forming including disposing a casing liner print head in an annular region located between a casing pipe disposed in a wellbore of a hydrocarbon well and a wall of the wellbore, conducting a downhole lining operation including operating the casing liner print head to eject casing liner integrated structure material into the annular region to form, in the annular region, a casing liner integrated structure including contiguous voids formed in the casing liner integrated structure material, and depositing a cementitious material into the contiguous voids formed in the casing liner material to form, in the annular region, a casing liner including the casing liner integrated structure material and the cementitious material.

THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTING OF MULTILAYER CERAMIC MISSILE RADOMES BY USING INTERLAYER TRANSITION MATERIALS
Production of multilayered ceramic missile radomes with wide frequency band and high electromagnetic permeability through three-dimensional printing technology and the use of glass inter-layer materials to minimize defects caused by thermo-mechanical incompatibility of adjacent layers during sintering are provided. The three dimensional printing of the multilayered ceramic missile radomes provide an automated, operator-independent and repeatable manufacturing technique to produce wide band ceramic missile radomes.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING MULTI-LAYER CLADDINGS WITH A DECORATIVE LAYER
The invention is a machine for producing decorative aggregate G-layer on top surfaces of claddings in cooperation with a cladding manufacturing machine. The G-layer production machine may be integrated into the cladding manufacturing machine or a standalone machine. In both options, the machines synchronize the overlaying of the top G-layer with the manufacturing process of the claddings to ensure continuous production of multi-layer claddings with a decorative aggregate layer. The overlaying itself is done under controlled condition to produce homogenous distribution of the aggregates on the top surface of the claddings to provide them an aesthetic look.
Paving Block with Improved Illumination
A method of manufacturing a paving block with embedded photoluminescent material, comprising the steps of mixing sand, aggregate, water, and cement to form an uncured concrete mixture; mixing phosphorescent pigments, sand, cement, aggregate, and water to form an uncured phosphorescent mixture; providing a paving block mold; pouring the uncured concrete mixture into the paving block mold to fill the paving block mold; compressing the uncured concrete mixture in the paving block mold via a tamper head until the paving block mold is between 80% and 90% full; pouring the uncured phosphorescent mixture into the paving mold block to substantially fill the paving block mold; and compressing and vibrating the uncured concrete mixture and the uncured phosphorescent mixture in the paving mold block to generate an uncured paving block having a desired thickness and density.
Automated method and system for forming prefabricated vertical wall construction units
A method and system for forming vertical wall construction units in one or more provided forms provides environmentally-manageable construction with reduced labor burden over existing non-traditional construction techniques. The method is a method of operation of the system, which includes a programmable controller, a reciprocating tamper head, a positioner that is guided to position the tamper head, and a filling mechanism for introducing loose material to a form in pre-determined layer volumes to provide loose material for individual layers of the prefabricated vertical construction unit. The programmable controller operates the filling mechanism to introduce the loose material for the current layer, then operates the three-axis positioner to guide the reciprocating tamper head over a horizontal cross-section of the form at a height determined for the current layer and along a program-determined path to compact the current layer. The process is repeated until the compacted material reaches a programmed height.
