For technical and economic success of miscible gas injection projects, an accurate laboratory measurement of Minimum Miscibility Pressure (MMP) at reservoir conditions is essential. On the other hand, compositional reservoir simulator is a useful tool in gas injection studies and prediction of MMP. The main goal of this paper is to describe a procedure to generate a three phase sequential t...

Injection is an essential skill for nurses. In nurse education, simulators assist learning of nursing students. There are various types practicing intramuscular injections in neonates. However, cost, time, and ability to provide formative feedback learners remain issues many education. Intramuscular injection a newborn significantly different from other ages simulator this purpose lacking.Metho...

We present a fast parallel simulator to evaluate the impact of different error control methods on the performance of networks-on-chip (NoCs). The simulator, implemented with message passing interface (MPI) language to exploit multiprocessor server environments, models characteristics of intellectual property (IP) cores, network interfaces (NIs), and routers. Moreover, different error control sc...

Although CO2 injection is one of the most common methods in enhanced oil recovery, it could alter fluid properties of oil and cause some problems such as asphaltene precipitation. The maximum amount of asphaltene precipitation occurs near the fluid pressure and concentration saturation. According to the description of asphaltene deposition onset, the bubble point pressure has a very special imp...

In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a high precision real time NAND simulator called Copycat that runs on a commodity multi-core desktop environment. This NAND simulator facilitates the development of embedded flash memory management software such as the flash translation layer (FTL). The simulator also allows a comprehensive fault injection for testing the reliability o...

A fast fault simulation approach based on ordinary logic emulation is proposed. The circuit configured into our system that emulates the faulty circuit’s behavior is synthesized from the good circuit and the given fault list in a novel way. Fault injection is made easy by shifting the content of a fault injection scan chain or by selecting the output of a parallel fault injection selector, with...

In-vehicle systems research is becoming a significant field as the market for in-vehicle systems continue to grow. As a consequence, researchers are increasingly concerned with opportunities and limitations of HCI in a moving vehicle. Especially aspects of attention constitute a challenge for in-vehicle systems development. This paper seeks to remedy this by defining and exemplifying attention ...

We developed a hydraulic fracturing simulator by coupling a flow simulator to a geomechanics code, namely T+M simulator. Modeling of the vertical fracture development involves continuous updating of the boundary conditions and of the data connectivity, based on the finite element method for geomechanics. The T+M simulator can model the initial fracture development during the hydraulic fracturin...
