Abstract:

The immiscible displacement of oil by water through a porous and permeable reservoir rock can be described by the use of a fractional flow curves (fw versus Sw). Water flooding project parameters can be obtained from the fractional flow curve. However, developing a representative fractional flow curve for a specific reservoir can be quite challenging when fluid and special core analysis data is limited or compromised.  Hence, a mathematical model for dependence of fw on Swis developed by solving material balance algorithm using production data. The results of the model were compared with forecasts from the conventional Bucklett Leverett fractional flow equation and Corey’s correlation and were found to be favorable with less time and effort.

Developing a New Bi-Objective Functions Model for a Hierarchical Location-Allocation Problem Using the Queuing Theory and Mathematical Programming

In this research, a hierarchical location-allocation problem is modeled in a queue framework. The queue model is considered as M/M/1/k, in which system capacity is finite, equals to k. This is the main contribution of the current research. Customer's enters to the system in order to find the service according to a Poisson. In this problem, the hierarchical location-allocation model is considere...

A Mathematical Programming Model for Flow Shop Scheduling Problems for Considering Just in Time Production

  In this paper, we consider a flow shop scheduling problem with bypass consideration for minimizing the sum of earliness and tardiness costs. We propose a new mathematical modeling to formulate this problem. There are several constraints which are involved in our modeling such as the due date of jobs, the job ready times, the earliness and the tardiness cost of jobs, and so on. We apply adapte...
