detection of oil-water contacts (owcs) is one of the primary tasks before evaluation of reservoir’s hydrocarbon in place, determining net pay zones and suitable depths for perforation operation. this paper introduces bayesian decision making tool as an effective technique in owc detecting using wire line logs. to compare strengths of the suggested method in detecting owc with conventional one, ...

in this paper two nodes to model isotropic and anisotropic media in transmission line matrix method (tlm) are presented. by using these two nodes, the permeability and permittivity of an anisotropic media can be modeled simultaneously. another application of these nodes is in modeling media with permittivity and permeability less than one. in the conventional 2 dimensional tlm, the stubs repres...

introduction: analysis of smile is one of the esthetic evaluations in dentistry. in the present study, gla, lid, the long axis position and the oblique axial angle of each tooth were evaluated. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional analytical study, 80 subjects with properly-aligned teeth and healthy periodontium were selected. a digital camera was to take photos of lip areas in unifor...

This paper presents a method to estimate and correct the positions of an indoor mobile robot. Scene matching is based on geometric hashing[9, 101. An optimization method[l2] of maximizing cross-correlation of image regions is used to estimation correction. We assume that the robot is equipped with two or more video cameras, a 2 0 laser range finder and an odometry system. The 3 0 CAD model of i...

Reactions A(γ, πp) are considered to proceed through the formation of πp pairs on ∆ constituents in nuclei. We develop the nonrelativistic operator of γ∆ → πp process in an arbitrary frame. The calculated cross section of C(γ, πp) reaction is compared to the existing experimental data. The role of isobars as nuclear constituents was a topic of a large body of research over a long time (a compre...

this paper showed the results of a qualitative investigation that looked into intracultural communication between brazilian teachers and students of english, and intercultural communication between american teachers and brazilian students of english. the aims were to identify and describe contextualization cues used by both brazilian and american speakers of english, and to connect these cues w...

objectives due to the lack of a standard tool for assessing patients’ capacity to consent to medical treatment in iran, the present study was carried out aiming to devise a persian version of a cross-cultural adaptation of the macarthur competence assessment tool. conclusions in the present study, we are able to focus on and prove the efficacy and benefits of this measurement tool. results the ...

Tomographic imaging is a technique for exploration of a cross-section of an inspected object without destruction. Normally, the input data, known as the projections, are gathered by repeatedly radiating coherent waveform through the object in a number of viewpoints, and receiving by an array of corresponding detector in the opposite position. In this research, as a replacement of radiographs, t...

This paper presents an evaluation of different types and families of multiwavelets in stereo correspondence matching. Different multiwavelet families with different filter types such as balanced versus unbalanced, symmetricsymmetric versus symmetric-antisymmetric are used. Normalized cross correlation is employed to find the best correspondence points and generate a disparity map. In the case o...

During the last decade, few issues have generated as much debate among scholars, policy-makers and political activists as the relationship between economic globalization and domestic income inequality in the developed world. The central aim of this paper is to offer an empirical assessment of the impact of economic globalization on the distribution of income generated by the market and the abil...
