The main objective of this work is quantitative evaluation of porosity in carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) with the help of X-ray computed tomography (XCT). For this purpose two types of sample were compared. Industrial porosity sample was obtained from an aeronautical industry. Artificially induced porosity samples were created by drilling holes with diameter 0.2 mm and 0.3 mm in non-po...

Optimal reservoir management requires reliable reservoir performance forecasts with as little uncertainty as possible. There is a need for improved techniques for dynamic data intergration to construct realistic reservoir models by using geostatistical techniques. This paper gives a method to create porosity models that honor interpreted pore volumes from well test data. Well porosity data, sei...

Grain size distribution (sorting) is determined by deposition. It may affect sediment bulk and elastic properties in a non-linear and non-unique way. The quantification of these relations is important for seismic reservoir characterization, especially in geological settings where sand/shale (bimodal) mixtures are present. Below, effective-medium equations are introduced for calculating the poro...

This study presents the effect of porosity on mechanical behaviors of a power distribution functionally graded beam. The Euler-Bernoulli beam is assumed to describe the kinematic relations and constitutive equations. Because of technical problems, particle size shapes and micro-voids are created during the fabrication which should be taken into consideration. Two porosity models are proposed. T...

Ubiquitous porosity gradients have a potentially important effect on the mixing of particle-bound tracers, such as 210Pb Mass-depth coordinates cannot be used to deal with these effects if values of the traditional mixing coefficient, D,, are required. This paper compares and evaluates three different means of dealing directly with porosity gradients while modeling bioturbation, i.e. mean const...

Sound propagation in water-saturated granular sediments is known to depend on the sediment porosity, but few data in the literature address both the frequency and porosity dependency. To begin to address this deficiency, a fluidized bed technique was used to control the porosity of an artificial sediment composed of glass spheres of 265 μm diameter. Time-of-flight measurements and the Fourier p...

The substitution of matrix permeability for fracture permeability to simplify the simulation of complex fracture systems requires a radically different treatment of transport in the matrix. The spatial distribution of pressure is reasonably well described by inclusion of only the major fractures. Transport of tracer and heat, however, depends on a detailed knowledge of fluid velocities. These v...

electrospinning is a method of nanofiber filter media production. by this method, it is possibleto produce media with nanofiber in the range of nanometer to micrometer. nanofibrous media provide a large specific surface area in a finite volume thus they are suitable for filtration applications. in this study, nanofiber non-woven membranes production of nylon-6 by electrospinning method is inves...
