more than half of all hydrocarbon reservoirs are naturally fractured reservoirs (nfrs), in which production forecasting is a complicated function of fluid flow in a fracture-matrix system. modelling of fluid flow in nfrs is challenging due to formation heterogeneity and anisotropy. stress sensitivity and depletion effect on already-complex reservoir permeability add to the sophistication. horiz...

the purpose of the present study is to examine the effects of ego depletion on arousal of elite iranian swimmers. the sample comprised elite swimmers invited to the national swimming team as focused and semi focused (36 subjects). the research design was as pre- and post-test—in two phases of ego depletion conditions and the lack of ego depletion conditions in two experimental and control group...

in recent years, the debate over the environmental sustainability of agricultural productions is widely increased. in this context, environmental impacts of potato production by semi-mechanized method were studied in markazi province of iran. in this research, life cycle assessment approach was used to identify and reduce environmental impacts. the environmental impacts of potato production in ...

The Dasgupta-Heal-Solow-Stiglitz model of capital accumulation and resource depletion poses the following sustainability problem: is it feasible to sustain indefinitely a level of consumption that is bounded away from zero? We provide a complete technological characterization of the sustainability problem in this model without reference to the time path. As a byproduct we show general existence...

Ancient organic-rich mudstones (black shales) are the most important type of source rock for oil and gas. Black shales are, however, highly variable in their lithologic and geochemical character and in the environmental controls responsible for their formation. Although water-column stratification and bottomwater oxygen depletion are features common to most environments favoring accumulation of...

agricultural activities have always been partly responsible for the emission of greenhouse gases and other environmental contaminants in the atmosphere. thus, studying on the environmental effects of agricultural activities and proposing appropriate strategies to mitigate these adverse effects can be paramount importance. in this study, in order to determine the environmental impacts of peanut ...
