a good knowledge of the parameters causing casing damage is critically important due to vital role of casing during the life of a well. cement sheath, which fills in the gap between the casing and wellbore wall, has a profound effect on the resistance of the casing against applied loads. most of the empirical equations proposed to estimate the collapse resistance of casing ignore the effects of...

Liquid jets that develop in surface nanobubble collapse are weaker than similar sized spherical bubble collapse, resulting reduced damage and a constant pit depth, independent of initial size.

A high-order accurate shock- and interface-capturing scheme is used to simulate the collapse of a gas bubble in water. In order to better understand the damage caused by collapsing bubbles, the dynamics of the shock-induced and Rayleigh collapse of a bubble near a planar rigid surface and in a free field are analysed. Collapse times, bubble displacements, interfacial velocities and surface pres...

Crocin, the main constituent of saffron (Crocus sativus L.), is a natural carotenoid which is known for its antioxidant activity. Liver as the organ that metabolizes many chemicals is one of the first position that is at risk of environmental pollutants. It is clear that compounds that exhibit antioxidant properties, scavenging of free radicals and inhibition of lipid peroxidation are expected ...

Oryctes agamemnon (Burmeister 1847) (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae) was accidentally introduced in the southwestern oases of Tunisia (Tozeur) around 1980 and spread to the Rjim Maatoug region. In these areas O. agamemnon was specific to date palm trees causing severe damage that can result in potential danger due to collapse of the tree. This study was conducted from April 2004 to March 2006 in 4 si...

We expound on the nature of collapse of one class of tall buildings (steel moment frame buildings) under earthquake excitation. Using a parametric analysis of a couple of index buildings subjected to idealized ground motion histories, we establish the ground motion features that cause collapse in these structures. Systematically mapping damage localization patterns, we track the evolution of th...
