The reservoir-wave hypothesis states that the blood pressure waveform can be usefully divided into a "reservoir pressure" related to the global compliance and resistance of the arterial system, and an "excess pressure" that depends on local conditions. The formulation of the reservoir-wave hypothesis applied to the area waveform is shown, and the analysis is applied to area and velocity data fr...

BACKGROUND Determinants of left atrial (LA) reservoir function and its influence on left ventricular (LV) function have not been quantified. METHODS AND RESULTS In an open-pericardium, paced (70 and 90 bpm) pig model of LV regional ischemia (left anterior descending coronary constriction), with high-fidelity LV, LA, and RV pressure recordings, we obtained the LA area with 2D automated border ...

The present paper describes the fractional derivative use in a pressure transient data analysis with phase redistribution for fractal reservoir in a geological environment which is not possible by conventional methods. The application of pressure derivatives in pressure transient test data interpretation by reservoir engineers is common place since the work done by Bourdet et al. in 1989 on thi...

A mature understanding of the sandstone gas reservoir in the Xiaoheba Formation in the southeastern Sichuan Basin remains lacking. To assess the reservoir characteristics and the origin of the high-quality reservoir in the Xiaoheba Formation, this paper uses systematic field investigations, physical property analysis, thin section identification, scanning electron microscopy and electron microp...

Vacuum-assisted venous drainage (VAVD) is a technique used to increase venous return during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). However, VAVD has created some new safety concerns. One potential problem is the pressurization of the venous reservoir in the event of vacuum failure. To prevent this overpressurization, a positive pressure release valve (PPRV) is placed on the venous reservoir. The purpose...

The present paper describes the pressure transient data analysis of fractal reservoir with fractional calculus application fo r its characterization in a class of geological environment which is not amenable by conventional techniques. The application of pressure derivatives/integral in pressure transient test data interpretation by reservoir engineers is common place since the work done by Bou...

the goal of this laboratory study is to investigate the effect of pore shapes on seismic wave velocities in carbonate rocks under reservoir conditions. in this research, 41 core plugs of carbonate rocks from oil fields of the southwest of iran were prepared. the compressional and shear wave velocities were measured in both dry and brine saturated samples under several pressures especially reser...

abstract in this study were reviewed some biological characteristics including sex ratio, gonadosomatic index, fecundity and egg diameter carassius gibelio in the study area from february to september 2015. during the study, 222 specimens from boostan dam and 238 specimens from alakoli reservoir were sampled using small beach seine. the maximum total length and weight of boostan dam for females...

Hydroseismicity was proposed to explain the occurrence of intraplate earthquakes in regions. Koyna Warna region one of the reservoir triggered seismicity zone in India, which is an example of intraplate earthquake region. The seismicity is continuing after 45 years of impoundment of the Koyna reservoir in 1961 and 25 years of impoundment of Warna reservoir in 1985. The excess of previous maximu...
