application of outflow water from treatment plants for irrigation as a non-usual water resource is being developed due to the lack of usual water resources in iran. activated carbon as a conditioner in water treatment procedures causes undesired changes in hydraulic properties of porous media and soil degradation. in this paper, the effects of activated carbon concentration on hydrodynamic prop...

inverse problem is one of the most important problems in geophysics as model parameters can be estimated from the measured data directly using inverse techniques. in this paper, applying different inverse methods on integration of s-wave and gpr velocities are investigated for estimation of porosity and water saturation. a combination of linear and nonlinear inverse problems are solved. linear ...

Petrophysical parameters such as porosity, water and oil saturations, formation resistivity factor, etc. describe the storage capability of the porous media or the capacity of rocks to hold fluids. The modified Archie’s equation . / . , also called the saturation equation, is used to determine the water saturation. Archie’s parameters, namely , , and , are sometimes assumed constant to simp...

In industry, the porosity of petrochemical reservoirs is measured frequently by coring and is an important property when trying to determine if a site is appropriate for drilling. Porosity can also be used in waste water treatment in order to determine if a material is ideal for water purification in industrial or residential applications. The purpose of this experiment was to simulate a oil re...

We investigate the scattering and absorption of light by random ballistic aggregates of spherical monomers. We present a general measure for the porosity of an irregular particle. Three different classes of ballistic aggregates are considered, with different degrees of porosity. Scattering and absorption cross sections are calculated, using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA), for grains of...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate MTA Plus (Prevest Denpro Limited, Jammu, India, for Avalon Biomed Inc) material's properties, namely calcium release, the pH change, solubility, water sorption, porosity, surface morphology, and apatite-forming ability after immersion in simulated body fluid. METHODS Two tricalcium silicate powders (MTA Plus and ProRoot MTA; Dentsply Tulsa Sp...

We investigate the scattering and absorption of light by random ballistic aggregates of spherical monomers. We present general measures for the size, shape, and porosity of an irregular particle. Three different classes of ballistic aggregates are considered, with different degrees of porosity. Scattering and absorption cross sections are calculated, using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA...
