A method of determining an amount of wear in a spherical working surface of a bearing ring of a spherical plain bearing, the method including providing a reference groove of predetermined depth in an unworn working surface, using the reference groove and axial end faces of the bearing ring as reference surfaces for centering and aligning a measuring tool. The tool having a first surface, and a protrusion that extends from the first surface in radial direction and is adapted to fit into the reference groove and two or more radial openings that extend from a second surface of the tool. Determining the amount of wear by measuring the radial distance to the spherical working surface through each of the radial openings and comparing the measured value with a reference value measured using the tool for an unworn working surface comprising a reference groove of the same predetermined depth.

This disclose relates to a robust method for automatic real-time monitoring or post-job evaluation of hydraulic fracturing operations based on predictive deconvolution of the wellhead pressure oscillations. Described are a method and system for determining depth of wellbore reflectors, implemented by performing a wellbore operation producing a pressure wave and its reflections from the wellbore reflectors; registering a pressure wave and its reflections; preprocessing the registered pressure wave and its reflections with a bandwidth filter; transforming the registered pressure wave and its reflections from the frequency domain into time-frequency representation with Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT); applying of a predictive deconvolution filter to STFT representation; identifying of a reflected signal on a plot in coordinates reflection timephysical time and determining the reflection time for the signal reflected from the wellbore reflector; determining the depth of wellbore reflector by multiplying the reflection time by pressure wave speed.

Provided is a method for calculating a height map of a sample comprising a body of a transparent material having a refractive index with an inclined or curved surface, the body being provided on an underlying surface extending laterally from underneath the body. The method may include positioning a first area of a body of a transparent material with an inclined or curved surface and a second area of the underlying surface extending laterally from underneath the body under an optical profiler, measuring a height map of the first area and the second area with the optical profiler; and calculating a height map of the inclined or curved surface by using the refractive index, the measured height map of the first area and the second area.

A portable telephone includes at least one processor and the at least one processor detects a barometric pressure value (a water pressure value) based on an output from a pressure sensor. In an underwater mode, a touch panel is turned off and a function for an underwater operation is allocated to a hardware key. A guide image for notification of a function different from a function for use in atmosphere is shown in correspondence with a hardware key to which the function is allocated, on a screen shown during execution of the function.
