Carbon dioxide flooding is considered to be one of the most effective enhanced oil recovery methods for the light oil reservoirs. Depending on the operating pressure, the process might be miscible or immiscible. Minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) is the most important parameter for assessing the applicability of any miscible gas flood for an oil reservoir. The miscibility condition is determine...

eart pressure problems are encountered in retaining walls, bulkheads, sheeting and bracing in cuts,culverts, tunnels, and cofferdams. in many cases, the lateral pressure is determined by use of classical earth pressure theories, such as coulomb's, where the equilibrium conditions of a failure wedge of soil is considered. excessive dynamic lateral earth pressure on retaining structures resu...

introduction: this study aims at determining and comparing braden and waterlow predictive tools as well as determining the cut off point of these scales. methods: this was a cross-sectional study which was carried out on 1864 patients admitted to imam hossein hospital in shahroud. the data collection instruments included braden and waterlow risk–assessment scales and a skin assessment tool. the...

small and medium enterprises development policy by  cluster approach  program is a new method to attempt to industrial development goals in developed and developing country in the world. in the last decades in some of country such as iran concentrate that programmed. industrial development program by cluster approach need some measurable factor for control and assessment. program’s control must...

various combustion characteristics and properties are studied while selecting a fuel for any engine. the choice of the engine and fuel are highly interrelated. vegetable oil is one obvious fuel particularly because their fuel properties are closer to diesel fuel. two important properties, the cetane number and the calorific value are similar to diesel. hence diesel engines can be operated on ve...
