We have conducted a series of measurements of resonantly excited photoluminescence, photocurrent and photovoltage on InGaN/GaN quantum wells with and without a p-n junction under reverse bias condition. The results indicate that most of the resonantly excited photo-generated carriers are extracted from the quantum wells when a p-n junction exists, and the photon absorption of quantum wells is e...

[1] New semianalytical solutions for evaluation of the drawdown near horizontal and slanted wells with finite length screens in unconfined aquifers are presented. These fully three-dimensional solutions consider instantaneous drainage or delayed yield and aquifer anisotropy. As a basis, solution for the drawdown created by a point source in a uniform anisotropic unconfined aquifer is derived in...

S OF SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL PAPERS2 Reprint 107. THE DRAINAGE OF LAND OVERLYING ARTESIAN BASINS. By W. Gardner. O. W. Israelsen, and W. W. McLaughlins • In SOIL SCIENCE, Vol. 26, No.1 (July, 1928), pp. 33-45. The methods of hydrodynamics are used in an effort to calculate the influence of drain tile and of wells on the water-logged condition of fine-textured .oils due to hydrostatic pressure in

We numerically study structural transitions inside shallow nanoscale wells with square cross-section, filled with nematic liquid crystal material. We model the wells within the Landau-de Gennes theory for nematic liquid crystals, in the absence of any external fields. We obtain two qualitatively different states: (i) the DSD state for relatively large wells with lateral dimension greater than a...

A hybrid in situ bioremediation/pulsed pumping strategy has been developed to cost effectively remediate a carbon tetrachloride plume in Schoolcraft, Michigan. The pulsed pumping system uses a line of alternating injection and extraction wells perpendicular to the direction of natural groundwater flow. The wells pump periodically to clean the recirculation zone between adjacent wells. During th...

This paper describes the applications of the fractured continuum model to the different enhanced geothermal systems reservoir conditions. The capability of the fractured continuum model to generate fracture characteristics expected in enhanced geothermal systems reservoir environments are demonstrated for single and multiple sets of fractures. Fracture characteristics are defined by fracture st...

This paper analyzes and quantifies characteristic production behavior using historical data from 1084 shale gas wells in the Eagle Ford shale play from 2010 to 2014. Decline curve analysis, using Hyperbolic and Stretched Exponential models, are used to derive average decline rates and other characteristic parameters for shale gas wells. Both Hyperbolic and Stretched Exponential models fit well ...

The February 21, 2008, Wells earthquake (MW=6.0) occurred in a region of northeastern Nevada where the seismicity has historically been low relative to western Nevada. In a region of area of approximately10 5 km 2 of northeastern Nevada, based rates of smaller earthquakes in the region prior to 2008, earthquakes of MW=6.0 or larger are expected with a rate of about 0.01 per year. The probabilit...

Reinjection has posed a major problem in the operation of the Hellisheidi Power Plant, SWIceland. The formation temperature at the originally planned reinjection zone proved to be very hot (>300°C) when injection wells were drilled there. In order to be able to use that zone for production a new reinjection zone was planned. The new zone has been promising despite problems in operating the new ...
