In o_shore petroleum engineering, the multiphase production technique has become a standard method for the exploitation of marginal fields. The multiphase production technology consists in conveying untreated wellhead e_uent through a single pipeline either to an existing processing platform or to onshore processing facilities. Transient phenomena can be caused by changes in the inlet flow-rate...

Recent dense granular flow experiments have shown that shear deformation in one region of a granular medium fluidizes its entirety, including regions far from the sheared zone, effectively erasing the yield condition everywhere. This enables slow creep deformation to occur when an external force is applied to a probe in the nominally static regions of the material. The apparent change in rheolo...

an important and fundamental issue in iran is to utilize water and to avoid wasting it. therefore, climate change can be considered as an effective factor on water resources. the most tangible climate change phenomenon is drought which is much important to be identified. in this study, the effect of climate changes on flow rate in bashar river, shahmokhtar station of yasouj city was evaluated u...

OBJECTIVE An elevated red cell distribution width has been recognized as a predictor of various cardiovascular diseases. Slow coronary flow syndrome is an important angiographic clinical entity with an unknown etiology. This study aimed to examine the relationship between red cell distribution width and the presence of slow coronary flow syndrome. METHODS In total, 185 patients with slow coro...

In acute myocardial infarction (AMI), slow flow (<TIMI 3) after reperfusion remains a problem. Removing the thrombus from culprit lesions should reduce this phenomenon and improve clinical outcome, so to evaluate the advantages of the Rescue percutaneous thrombectomy system (Rescue PT), 65 cases of AMI in which Rescue PT (RT group) was carried out were compared with 66 cases of AMI that were tr...

To try to unravel the complexity and heterogeneity of the "no-reflow" phenomenon and its underlying mechanisms, we studied tissue perfusion in reperfused heart muscle by using tracer microspheres in an anesthetized dog model of 90-minute coronary occlusion followed by reperfusion for 2 1/2 hours, 24 hours, or 1 week. Regional myocardial blood flow was determined both in basal flow conditions an...

This study investigates the suppression mechanism of instabilities induced by fluid–structure interactions (FSI) using passive vibration absorption devices, such as nonlinear energy sink (NES). The present FSI framework comprises a low-order phenomenological model, wherein wake effect is modeled classical Van der Pol oscillator. structure represented cylindrical bluff body with degree-of-freedo...

Abstract: This study is carried out to describe the behaviour of vehicles flow on the road, in the presence of blocking effects. A non-linear three dimensional system of ordinary differential equations is used to describe vehicles flow on the road. The study classify total vehicles population on the road into three compartments as Free – Slow – Released vehicles. The formulated model is well-po...
