The objective of this work is to utilize integrated geomechanics, field vertical seismic profile (VSP) and microseismic data characterize the complex subsurface stress conditions at Farnsworth Unit (FWU). model based on a five-spot sector extracted from primary geomechanical model. well injection pattern characterized by extensive reservoir characterization data, such logs, cores borehole geoph...

This paper shows how the identiication step in several identiication for control schemes can be performed in a uniied and simpliied manner. We utilize a particularly simple indirect method for closed-loop identiica-tion and show how the x noise model/preelter should be chosen in order to match the identiication and control criteria.

OBJECTIVES Indirect comparison methods have been increasingly used to assess the effectiveness of different interventions comparatively. This study evaluated a Trial Similarity and Evidence Consistency Assessment (TSECA) framework for assessing key assumptions underlying the validity of indirect comparisons. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING We applied the TSECA framework to 94 Cochrane Systematic Rev...

Instruction sequences with direct and indirect jump instructions are as expressive as instruction sequences with direct jump instructions only. We show that, in the case where the number of instructions is not bounded, there exist instruction sequences of the former kind from which elimination of indirect jump instructions is possible without a super-linear increase of their maximal internal de...

Abstract Hydrogen injection is a promising technology currently under development to reduce CO 2 emissions in ironmaking blast furnaces (BFs). Therefore, hydrogen BF studied by recent process model based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). It focuses the effect of peripheral opening extent (POE), which represents coke amount near furnace wall. The simulations consider 380 m 3 operated with t...

The F10 is a new commercially available scanning laser confocal ophthalmoscope (SLO) that can perform multiple functions. We determined the usefulness of noninvasive evaluation of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) pathologies before and after intravitreal injection of bevacizumab (IVB) using the new indirect viewing system of the retro-mode function of the F10 SLO, and compared the image...

Passivity{based feedback controllers are derived for the indirect stabilization of the average output voltage in Pulse{Width{Modulation (PWM) controlled dc{to{dc power converters of the \boost", \buck{boost" and \buck" types. The controller design is carried out on the basis of well known average PWM models of such circuits. These models are shown to be Euler{Lagrange systems corresponding to a...

This paper deals with fault-tolerant control of five-phase induction motor (IM) drives under single-phase open. By exploiting a decoupled model for five-phase IM under fault, the indirect field-oriented control ensures that electromagnetic torque oscillations are reduced by particular magnitude ratio currents. The control techniques are developed by the third harmonic current injection, in orde...

Shaft gas injection is considered helpful for realizing an oxygen blast furnace (OBF) to mitigate CO2 emissions substantially. This paper presents a systematic study of the shaft 430-m3 industrial OBF using process model. The operated at 35, 50, or 100 pct enrichment. It combined with reducing through tuyeres achieve reasonable flame temperature. effects rate, position, and temperature are stud...

A lyophilized aqueous leaf extract of Cecropia obtusifolia proved to be antihypertensive when intravenously administrated to conscious spontaneous hypertensive rats. Forty-five minutes after injection, the maximum fall in arterial pressure (-23.5% relative to preinjection values) was seen and recovery was not complete by the end of the 180 min observation period. The extract was also given to p...
