oil production optimization is one of the main targets of reservoir management. smart well technology gives the ability of real time oil production optimization. although this technology has many advantages; optimum adjustment or sizing of corresponding valves is still an issue to be solved. in this research, optimum port sizing of inflow control devices (icds) which are passive control valves ...

A frequency response function based parameter estimation method is used for finite element model calibration of a full-scale bridge utilizing measured dynamic test data. Dynamic tests are performed on the bridge to obtain measured frequency response functions. Data quality is ensured by comparing measured data with the finite element model and removing erroneous data. A coherence data selector ...

As a crucial component for temporary blocking of layer segments in the segmental fracturing process, bridge plugs are difficult to unseal by conventional methods and may cause major downhole accidents if not handled properly. In this paper, nanofluidic self-heating unsealing rubber cylinder is designed, which equipped with sandwich inside cylinder, consisting system an annular flexible heater. ...

Long waves caused by storm surges or river floods can significantly impact marine and fluvial structures such as bridge piers. Apart from the forces that they generate on structure, also contribute to formation of turbulent eddies downstream obstacle. This is relevant, in this way affect both an erodible bottom ecosystem. The present study describes a medium-scale experiment, which propagation ...

the flow characteristics around an elliptic cylinder with an axis ratio of ar=2 located near a flat plate were investigated experimentally. the elliptic cylinder was located on the inside and outside a turbulent boundary layer region whose thickness (δ) is 0.38b. the reynolds numbers based on the height of the cylinder cross-section were 15000 and 30000. measurements of mean velocity and turbul...

A new procedure for deriving nonlinear mathematical modeling for a specific class of aerospace hydro - mechanical control valves is presented. The effects of friction on the dynamic behavior of these types of valves along with the experimental verifictions are also given. The modeling approach is based on the combination of the following three tasks: decomposition of the valve into simple speci...

Faghihi, Ph.D. The present study was carried out to examine the congruence among the intended, implemented and attained “thinking and life style” curricula in th...

In the present study, the magnetic field effects of the elastic response of the polymeric piezoelectric cylinder reinforced with the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are studied. The cylinder is subjected to an internal pressure, a constant electric potential difference at the inner and outer surfaces, and the thermal and magnetic fields. The Mori-Tanaka model is used for obtaining the equivalent materi...
