We study continuous interfacial transitions, analagous to two-dimensional complete wetting, associated with the first-order prewetting line, which can occur on steps, patterned walls, grooves and wedges, and which are sensitive to both the range of the intermolecular forces and interfacial fluctuation effects. These transitions compete with wetting, filling and condensation producing very rich ...

This paper introduces the notion of space-filling trees, which are analogous to space-filling curves, but have a branching, tree-like structure and are rooted. A space-filling tree is defined by an incremental process that results in a tree for which every point in the space has a finite-length path that converges to it. In contrast to space-filling curves, individual paths in the tree are shor...

The study of the carbonate cements in the Permian-Triassic Dalan-Kangan formations resulted in the identification of five stages of calcite and dolomite cementation, which completely or partially occluded pores. Cement types appear to be early isopachous calcite (i; C1-non-luminescence), equant (ii; C2-dull CL), fairly coarse secondary dolomite rhombs (iii; C3-zoning red CL), coarse sparry calc...

qualitative analysis of petroleum reservoir rocks is still one of the most important topics of core laboratories and directly affects hydrocarbon-in-place, fluid flow, and prediction of field performance. magnetic resonance imaging (mri) as a non-invasive, millimeter resolution technique which only images fluids in porous media fits this purpose perfectly. magnetic resonance is a radio frequenc...

The dispersed particles of magnetorheological fluid form stable chain-like clusters under the magnetic field, and show an effect of controllable flowability and shape. Based on this characteristic, using migration magnetic acted on the magnetorheological fluid, the object directional migration can be realized, and then the magnetorheological fluid forms levitation at the same time, which has li...

A two fluid model (TFM) was used to study gas-solid heat transfer in a riser with different inclination angles. A two dimensional pipe with 5.8 cm internal diameter and 5 meter length was chosen.  Effect of bed angle and solid particles feed rate were studied on the heat transfer behavior of gas and solid particles. Obtained results from simulation are compared with the experimental data in the...
