the source of cement in oilfields is critical to the prediction of the distribution of cements in the reservoirs and also prediction of reservoir quality. the source of mineral forming cements has been determined for the storrington oolitic carbonate reservoir (middle jurassic great oolite formation, weald basin, onshore uk) using a combination of petrography, electron microscopy, fluid inclusi...

The Conowingo Reservoir is situated on the Susquehanna River, immediately upstream of Chesapeake Bay, the largest estuary in the United States. Sedimentation in the reservoir provides an unintended benefit to the bay by preventing sediments, organic matter, and nutrients from entering the bay. The sediment storage capacity of the reservoir is nearly exhausted, however, and the resulting increas...

A mature understanding of the sandstone gas reservoir in the Xiaoheba Formation in the southeastern Sichuan Basin remains lacking. To assess the reservoir characteristics and the origin of the high-quality reservoir in the Xiaoheba Formation, this paper uses systematic field investigations, physical property analysis, thin section identification, scanning electron microscopy and electron microp...

The augmentation index predicts cardiovascular mortality and is usually explained as a distally reflected wave adding to the forward wave generated by systole. We propose that the capacitative properties of the aorta (the arterial reservoir) also contribute significantly to the augmentation index and have calculated the contribution of the arterial reservoir, independently of wave reflection, a...

An integrated Rough Set approach is proposed to discover the historical operation rules of irrigation purpose reservoirs. Operation rules are derived by expressing monthly releases as functions of reservoir stored volume, inflow and outflow. This is accomplished through the Rough Set approach and the use of performance indices able to recognize the effective rules used in water supply managemen...

in this research, a 2d laterally averaged model of hydrodynamics and water quality, ce-qual-w2, was applied to simulate water quality parameters in the ilam reservoir. the water quality of ilam reservoir was obtained between mesotrophic and eutrophic based on the measured data including chlorophyll a, total phosphorus and subsurface oxygen saturation. the ce-qual-w2 model was calibrated and ver...

We demonstrate reservoir computing with a physical system using a single autonomous Boolean logic element with time-delay feedback. The system generates a chaotic transient with a window of consistency lasting between 30 and 300 ns, which we show is sufficient for reservoir computing. We then characterize the dependence of computational performance on system parameters to find the best operatin...

We investigated modifications to the reservoir tube usually used in drawover anaesthetic breathing systems as a method of improving its efficiency and performance. The resulting oxygen concentration was recorded at different oxygen flow rates whilst an artificial lung was being ventilated over a range of minute volumes. Addition of a reservoir bag and valves significantly increased the measured...

The dynamics of a three-level atom in a cascade ~or ladder! configuration with both transitions coupled to a single structured reservoir of quantized electromagnetic field modes is treated using Laplace transform methods applied to the coupled amplitude equations. In this system two-photon excitation of the reservoir occurs, and both sequences for emitting the two photons are allowed and includ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between right atrial (RA) reservoir and conduit function and to determine how hemodynamic changes influence this relationship and its impact on cardiac output. In 11 open-chest sheep, RA reservoir and conduit function were quantified as RA inflow with the tricuspid valve closed versus open, respectively. Conduit function was separate...
