The minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) is one of the crucial and substantial parameters in the gas injection projects for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). This parameter indicates the minimum pressure at constant temperature and composition conditions for reaching 100 percent of the oil production recovery which leads to a huge economic income. Therefore, an inaccurate prediction of the MMP may lea...

the increased risk of hemolytic reactions and erythrocyte recovery delay in abo incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) is well established. effects of abo incompatibility on transplantation outcomes is evaluated in this study. we prospectively followed 501 patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation according to abo compatibility groups of minor, major and bidi...

Texture and color appearance of froth is a discreet qualitative tool for evaluating the performance of flotation process. The structure of a froth developed on the flotation cell has a significant effect on the grade and recovery of copper concentrate. In this work, image analysis and neural networks have been implemented to model and control the performance of such a system. The result reveals...

The origin of most animal phyla and classes during the Cambrian explosion has been hypothesized to represent an 'early burst' of evolutionary exploration of functional ecological possibilities. However, the ecological history of marine animals has yet to be fully quantified, preventing an assessment of the early-burst model for functional ecology. Here we use ecological assignments for 18,621 m...

conclusions the results clarified a deep perception of participants’ experiences after disaster. the path of life recovery after disasters involves participants’ striving to achieve a comprehensive health recovery, which starts with the need for all-inclusive health recovery as a main concern; this is the motivator for a responding strategy. this strategy is participatory, and the process is pr...

various researches on laboratory and field scale illustrate that manipulating the ionic composition and the ion concentration of injected water can affect the efficiency of water flooding and the interaction of injected water with rock and other fluids present in porous media. the objectives of this paper are to investigate parameters that affect low salinity water flooding; mainly the effect o...

recovery is a part of disaster management cycle during which repair and reconstruction takes place, and individuals, groups, and communities retake what they have lost and ideally the risk of future incidents reduces. life recovery is a subjective and multidimensional issue influenced by various factors, whereas valid measurable indicators in evaluating the recovery after disasters are helpful....
