Abstract The frequency-dependent amplitude-versus-offset (FAVO) method has become a practical for fluid detection in sand reservoirs. At present, most FAVO inversions are based on the assumption that reservoirs isotropy, but application effect is not satisfactory fractured Hence, we analyse frequency variation characteristics of anisotropy parameters tight sandstone new petrophysical model, and...

We are developing a large-scale model of language comprehension in ACT-R 6 for use in the creation of a synthetic teammate that can function as the Air Vehicle Operator (AVO) in a three-person simulation of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) team performing a reconnaissance mission. The use of ACT-R 6 to implement the core components of this system reflects the strong cognitive modeling orientati...

Autophagy is an evolutionary conserved intracellular process whereby cells break down long-lived proteins and organelles. Accumulating evidences suggest increasing physiological significance of autophagy in pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Anthrax lethal toxin (LT) exerts its influence on numerous cells and herein, we report a novel effect of LT-induced autophagy on mammalian cells. Several...

Common-midpoint (CMP) stacking technique plays an important role in enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in seismic data processing and imaging. Weighted stacking is often used to improve the performance of conventional equalweight stacking in further attenuating random noise and handling the amplitude variations in real seismic data. In this study, we propose to use a hybrid framework of ...

The acquisition footprint noise in migrated sections consists of migration artifacts associated with a discrete recording geometry. Such noise can corrupt the interpretation of seismic sections, especially for AVO studies, so it is critical to design an optimal seismic survey that generates the smallest footprint. Our previous work showed that the Seismic Array Theorem can be used to design bet...

When redundancy of seismic data exists factorial cokriging enables the estimation of (1) a common part, based on the common spatial behavior, and (2) the differences relative to the common part of the input data. Coléou (2002) first introduced the automatic implementation of factorial co-kriging (AFACK) as a filtering technique for the time-lapse (4D) processing sequence. It was specifically de...

The PSRR of a linear regulator is determined by three factors: 1. The PSRR of the bandgap voltage reference, whose output ripple affects the output ripple of the linear regulator up to the roll-off frequency of the bandgap. 2. The open-loop gain of the feedback loop (AV), which is roughly equal to the open-loop gain of the error amplifier, up to the 0dB (unity gain) crossover frequency of the l...
