we use a multi-resolution analysis based on a wavelet transform to upscale a 3d fractured reservoir. this paper describes a 3d, single-phase, and black-oil geological model (gm) that is used to simulate naturally-fractured reservoirs. the absolute permeability and porosity of gm is upscaled by all the possible combinations of haar, bior1.3, and db4 wavelets in three levels of coarsening. the ap...

reliable characterization of subsurface soil in urban areas is a major concern in geotechnical and geological engineering projects. in this regard, this research deals with development of a 3d geological engineering model on mashhad city soil using sequential gaussian simulation (sgs) approach. the intense variability of soil in the study area has sometimes caused serious problems in civil engi...

numerical investigation of 3d electrokinetic mixing through micromixer has performed both qualitatively and quantitatively. in order to reduce numerical expenses of 3d flows, we implement the helmholtz-smoluchowski method for the numerical modeling of electroosmotic flows. according to the previous study of electrokinetic mixing inside the heterogeneous microchannels, existence of the vortexes ...

a numerical study of 3d electrokinetic flows through micromixers was performed. the micromixers considered here consisted of heterogeneous rectangular microchannels with prescribed patterns of zeta-potential at their walls. numerical simulation of electroosmotic flows within heterogeneous channels requires solution of the navier-stokes, ernest-plank and species concentration equations. it is kn...

throughout history dams have been important structures in water storage. to avoid overtopping, damage, and or failure of a dam, adequate spillway is needed to release excess water from upstream floods. researchers found that spillways have to be made nonlinear in order to reach an economic structure with high performance. a piano key weir is one of the best solutions. piano key weirs are the mo...

in this paper, the operation of helix traveling wave tube in interaction region is investigated by using a three dimensional large signal lagrangian model in frequency domain. the complete simulation of these tubes is essential for optimum design and minimum manufacturing cost. this 3d code can compute interception current (or current losses ), beam radius changes in interaction region and the ...

in this study, we have theoretically investigated the effect of electron stopper layer on internal temperature distribution of high performance vertical cavity surface-emitting laser emitting at 1305 nm.  simulation software pics3d, which self-consistently combines the 3d simulation of carrier transport, self-heating, gain computation and wave-guiding, was used. simulation results show that cha...
