History matching of a stochastic model of field-scale fractures: methodology and case study — This paper focuses on the history matching of stochastic models of large-scale fractures under seismic resolution, namely sub-seismic faults and fracture swarms. First, we propose an object-based stochastic model for describing geological features of large-scale fractures. This model accounts for stati...

Fracture repair is a normal physiological response to bone injury. During the process of bony callus formation, lacunocanalicular network (LCN) formed de novo that evolves with remodeling. Our aim was longitudinal assessment development and evolution LCN during fracture repair. To this end, 45 adult wild-type C57BL/6 mice underwent closed tibial surgery. Fractured intact contralateral tibias we...

Failures in the water distribution network are some most important factors in water losses, water shortage and dissatisfaction of users and secondary pollutions as well. This research aimed to analyze failure in water distribution networks during 2006-2008, for better water management. Daily failure reports in Ahvaz, Iran distribution network during 2006-2008, were collected from emergency depa...
