Allocation and Spatial Distribution of Resources
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A primary component of our approach is the spatial distribution of resources throughout the study area. To map the spatial distribution of gas and oil resources, the quantities of resources from different estimates must be allocated to spatially defined units. The units used in this study are derived from the “plays” defined by the U.S. Geological Survey. Plays are sets of known or postulated oil or gas accumulations sharing similar geologic, geographic, and temporal properties.1 To improve upon the spatial resolution provided by published assessments of technically recoverable resources, we divided the published plays into subplays, then further divided each subplay into three areas corresponding to the locations of different resource categories (proved reserves, reserve appreciation, and undiscovered resources). A key step in our methodology is defining these subplays and resource areas and allocating resources from published assessments to them.2

متن کاملAn Overview on the Applications of Spatial Analyses in the Management and Allocation of Hemodialysis Services
Introduction: The prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) reached about 13.4% in 2016. Among available treatment methods, hemodialysis is the most common way used for the treatment of patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), the last stage of CKD. On average, these patients refer to hemodialysis centers three times a week. The high patients referral rate indicates the importance of prop...

Background Allocation of adequate healthcare facilities is one of the most important factors that public health policy-makers consider when preparing for infectious disease outbreaks. Negative pressure isolation rooms (NPIRs) are one of the critical resources for control of infectious respiratory diseases, such as the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. However, there is insuffi...
متن کاملDevelopment and Resources Distribution Structure in Political Systems
Distribution and allocation of resources is affected by factors such as values, norms, social stratifications, ideology, information, coercion, political challenges, and even external factors. This finding means that there is always a fundamental tendency to redirect resources toward political goals instead of public interests and development. Because the resource structure is strongly influenc...
متن کاملDetermination of Optimal Allocation and Penetration Level of Distributed Energy Resources Considering Short Circuit Currents
The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in the distribution network has plenty of advantages if their allocation and Penetration Level (PL) are done appropriately. Hence, the challenge of finding the best allocation and PL of DERs in large distribution networks is an important but intricate problem. This paper proposes a novel methodology to simultaneously determine the optimal lo...
