20090251406 | System and Method for Selective Activation and Deactivation of an Information Handling System Input Output Device - An information handling system has a chassis and a lid, the lid rotating between a closed position and a tablet position. An indicator coupled to the lid, such as a magnet, aligns with a first detector coupled to a chassis of the information handling system, such as a Hall effect detector, in the tablet position so that the detector signals to a position detector module to disable a keyboard of the information handling system. The indicator aligns with a second detector coupled to the chassis in a closed configuration so that the second detector signals to the position detector module to enter a power down state. | 10-08-2009 |

20090231805 | System and Method for Information Handling System Chassis Impact Bumpers - A bumper extending from a portable information handling system chassis aligns with a recess on a lid of the information handling system to maintain the lid in position when the lid closes against the chassis, such as in a closed position or a tablet position. The bumper has a rigid material that couples to the chassis covered at the exposed portion of the bumper by a non-rigid material that interacts with the lid. The non-rigid material absorbs shocks translated through the lid and chassis, and reduces the risk of damage to lid cosmetic features. The rigid portion provides a secure coupling of the bumper to the chassis. | 09-17-2009 |

20120253770 | Method and System For Creating History Matched Simulation Models - A method for matching production history to flow simulations includes identifying a plurality of parameters that control an objective function measuring the mismatch between a flow simulation response in a parameter subspace and a production history. A value is calculated for an objective function and for a static measurement at each of a plurality of experiments in the parameter subspace. These results are used to develop a mathematical relationship between one or more static measurements and the objective function. During subsequent adjustment of the simulation model, a target window in the objective function is identified, and flow simulations are performed for each modified model that is predicted from the static geologic measurement to produce an objective function within the window. An objective function of each flow simulation to the production history is calculated and the procedure is iterated until the objective function is within a target range. | 10-04-2012 |
