intelligent wells provide the ability for monitoring and control of downhole environment of the wells. downhole monitoring is achieved through sensors while control is realized with downhole valves. recovery from intelligent wells can be improved by proper selection of candidate wells/fields and optimizing the number, location and performance of the installed interval control valves. design cri...

this paper aims to investigate a new and intricate behavior of immediate follower during the lane change of leader vehicle. accordingly, the mentioned situation is a transient state in car following behavior during which the follower vehicle considerably deviates from conventional car following models for a limited time, which is a complex state including lateral and longitudinal movement simul...

estimation of the conceptual costs in construction projects can be regarded as an important issue in feasibility studies. this estimation has a major impact on the success of construction projects. indeed, this estimation supports the required information that can be employed in cost management and budgeting of these projects. the purpose of this paper is to introduce an intelligent model to im...

in this paper, an intelligent controller is applied to control omni-directional robots motion. first, the dynamics of the three wheel robots, as a nonlinear plant with considerable uncertainties, is identified using an efficient algorithm of training, named lolimot. then, an intelligent controller based on brain emotional learning algorithm is applied to the identified model. this emotional lea...

the control of car following is essential due to its safety and its operational efficiency. for this purpose, this paper builds a model of car following behavior based on armax structure from a real traffic dataset and design a model predictive control (mpc) system. based on the relative distance and relative acceleration of each instant, the mpc predicts the future behavior of the leader vehic...

abstractone challenge face political system is implementation national development. there are various models for national development. some countries have relied on import model, but other has emphasis on their indigenous, the purpose of this study is designing intelligence development model in iranian national context. based on the selected theory building methodology, we have theorized intell...

Permeability is the ability of porous rock to transmit fluids and one of the most important properties of reservoir rock because oil production depends on the permeability of reservoirs. Permeability is determined using a variety of methods which are usually expensive and time consuming. Reservoir rock properties with image analysis and intelligent systems has been used to reduce time and money...

uniaxial compressive strength (ucs) and internal friction coefficient (µ) are the most important strength parameters of rock. they could be determined either by laboratory tests or from empirical correlations. the laboratory analysis sometimes is not possible for many reasons. on the other hand, due to changes in rock compositions and properties, none of the correlations could be applied as an ...

Intelligent reservoir characterization using seismic attributes and hydraulic flow units has a vital role in the description of oil and gas traps. The predicted model allows an accurate understanding of the reservoir quality, especially at the un-cored well location. This study was conducted in two major steps. In the first step, the survey compared different intelligent techniques to discover ...
