The correct saturation flow rates for the specific circumstances must be used to calculate delays and level of Service at intersections. As a result lack local data, practitioners would often use default values from overseas software developers. Base rate is an important factor timing traffic signals. Despite 1, 900 pc/h/ln number suggested by Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), base differs city ci...

Residual gas saturation is one of the most important parameter in determining recovery factor of water-drive gas reservoir. Visual observation of processes occurring at the pore level in micromodels can give an insight to fluid displacements at the larger scale and also help the interpretation of production performance at reservoir scale. In this study experimental tests in a glass micromod...

Natural gas storage process in aquifer, due to fluid flow behavior of gas and water in the porous medium and because of their contact with each other under reservoir conditions, faces several challenges. Therefore, there should be a clear understanding of the injected gas behavior before and after the injection into the reservoir. This research simulates the natural gas storage in aquifer by us...

AN69 membrane is not suited for diffusion, with an suggested limit at 25 mL/min dialysate flow rate. When prescribing continuous hemodialysis this threshold must be surpassed to achieve. We designed a study aimed to check if a higher dose of dialysis could be delivered efficiently with this membrane. Ten ICU patients under continuous hemodiafiltration with 1.4 m(2) AN69 membrane were included a...

background. given the influence of systemic blood pressure on pulpal blood flow, anxiolytics prescribed may alter the pulpal blood flow along with the local anesthetic solution containing a vasoconstrictor. this study evaluated the impact of preoperative anxiolytics and vasoconstrictors in local anesthetic agents on pulpal oxygen saturation. methods. thirty anxious young healthy individuals wit...

Gyrokinetic δf particle simulation is used to investigate the nonlinear saturation mechanisms in collisionless trapped electron mode (CTEM) turbulence. It is found that the importance of zonal flow is parameter sensitive and is well characterized by the shearing rate formula. The effect of zonal flow is empirically found to be sensitive to temperature ratio, magnetic shear and electron temperat...

In this paper we develop globally robustly stabilizing controllers for rotating stall and surge in multimode axial flow compressor models with uncertain pressure-flow compressor performance characteristic maps. Specifically, using Lyapunov stability theory, a novel switching nonlinear globally robustly stabilizing control law based on equilibria-dependent Lyapunov functions with converging doma...

the prediction of porosity is achieved by using available core and log data; however, the estimationof permeability is limited to the scare core data. hence, porosity and saturation data through theframework of flow units can be used to make an estimation of reservoir permeability. the purposeof this study is to predict the permeability of a carbonate gas reservoir by using physical-basedempiri...
