Method to optimize perforations for hydraulic fracturing in anisotropic earth formations

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

The subject disclosure relates to determining an optimum orientation for perforations around the circumference of a subsurface borehole and optimum wellbore fluid initiation pressure for hydraulic fracturing in anisotropic formations. ...

In coastal marshes, low-permeability mud is often found overlying high permeability sandy deposits. A recently developed 3D creek-marsh model was used to investigate the effects of soil stratigraphy (a mud layer overlying a sandy-loam layer) on pore-water ...

Monitoring CO2 migration in an injection well: Evidence from MovECBM

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

Carbon dioxide (CO2) geological storage relies on safe, long-term injection of large quantities of CO2 in underground porous rocks. Wells, whether they are the conduit of the pumped fluid or are exposed to CO2 in the storage reservoir (observation and old ...

Direct localised measurement of electrical resistivity profile in rat and embryonic chick retinas using a microprobe

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Harald Van Lintel, Robert Meissner, Sri Harsha Kasi Raj

We report an alternative technique to perform a direct and local measurement of electrical resistivities in a layered retinal tissue. Information on resistivity changes along the depth in a retina is important for modelling retinal stimulation by retinal p ...

Increased sediment production resulting from the erosion of unprotected soil in a catchment may result in severe changes in the morphodynamics and hydrodynamics of mountain rivers. Sediment overfeeding can lead to the degradation of salmonids' spawning sit ...

Porosity in Aluminum Alloys

Milan Felberbaum

Porosity is one of the major defects in castings because it reduces the mechanical properties of a cast piece [1]. Porosity formation results from the effect of two concomitant mechanisms, namely solidification shrinkage and segregation/precipitation of ga ...

Tubular bridge design has to deal with fatigue issues. The fatigue susceptibility of these bridges, composed of circular hollow section profiles welded together in K-joints, is mainly due to stress concentrations, to welding imperfections and to tensile re ...

Three-dimensional petrographical investigations on borehole rock samples: a comparison between X-ray Computed- and Neutron Tomography

Aurèle Parriaux, Pascal Turberg, Pierre Guillaume Christe

Technical difficulties associated with excavation works in tectonized geological settings are frequent. They comprise instantaneous and/or delayed convergence, sudden collapse of gallery roof and/or walls, outpouring of fault-filling materials and water in ...

Within-pin reaction rate distributions: CASMO-4 and HELIOS compared against tomographic measurements at the PROTEUS reactor

Rakesh Chawla, Fabian Jatuff

In the framework of the LWR-PROTEUS project - an extended validation program for advanced light water reactor core analysis tools conducted at the Paul Scherrer Institute - the radial, internal variations of the total fission rate (Ftot) and the capture ra ...

Single and Multi-Hop ARQ in Sensor Networks

Martin Vetterli, Henri Julien Dubois-Ferrière

We present a novel error-correction scheme for sensor networks called Multi-hop Hybrid ARQ (MHARQ). Rather than immediately discard a received corrupt packet, a node buffers it. When two corrupt versions of a packet have been received, a procedure attempts ...
