”Radiographic Testing is a NDT method to detect inherent volumetric discontinuities in materials such as castings and welds” A common type of discontinuity found and most often misinterpreted and evaluated is rounded indications, whether isolated, aligned or clustered. This paper addresses the acceptance criteria of rounded indications based on various codes and standards and intends to lay at ...

for obtaining reservoir petrophysical properties, for example porosity, non-destructive methods such as x-ray computed tomography, ct, seems to be precise and accurate. porosity is deducted from the ct image with a single scan via different techniques, such as pore space detection by image segmentation techniques then correlation with porosity. more than one hundred samples with carbonate li...

Fiber-reinforced laminated composites are frequently preferred in many engineering projects. With the development in production technology, the using of the fiber reinforced laminated composites has been increasing in engineering applications. In the production stage of the fiber-reinforced laminated composites, porosities could be occurred due to production or technical errors. After a level o...

abstract the groines are structures which are use to protected the river bank and to form the water way .the most important problem of groynes is scour at around it that makes breaking and overturning the groynes. because of the less researches at about l-head groynes and open groynes ,this article considers the amount of scour in this type of groynes. so because of this have been used the lace...

The Berriasian-Valanginian Fahliyan Formation forms one of the giant reservoirs in the subsurface of the Abadan plain, onshore Iran. A detailed petrographical analysis of the available cores and thin sections revealed that the different diagenetic parameters influenced the reservoir quality of the Fahliyan Formation in this field. The Fahliyan Formation has been influenced by three diagenetic e...

This study explored the effect of porosity and installation angle, thickness (dimension) and second layer of permeable obstacles on density current control and trapping in the laboratory. For this purpose, an insoluble suspended polymer and two types of groove and cavity obstacles made from plexiglass sheets were selected. The experiments were conducted with two different concentrations, five d...

The injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) in deep, unmineable coalbeds is a very attractive option for geologic CO2 storage: the CO2 is stored and at the same time the recovery of coalbed methane (CBM) is enhanced. The revenue of methane (CH4) production can offset the expenditures of the storage operation. Coalbeds form complex gas reservoirs characterized by their dual porosity: they contain both...

Many countries intend to use compacted bentonite as a barrier in their deep geological repositories for nuclear waste. In order to describe and predict hydraulic conductivity or radionuclide transport through the bentonite barrier, fundamental understanding of the microstructure of compacted bentonite is needed. This study examined the interlayer swelling and overall microstructure of Wyoming B...

We will present calculations and experiments on the effect of porosity on the shock wave attenuation, dynamic strength and fragment distribution of porous, brittle materials. These results are part of our developing theory of porosity effects on impact processes in solar system materials. We will also examine the effects of porosity on crack propagation in ice and comet analog materials. The st...
