The effect of atmospheric horizontal resolution on tropical variability is investigated within the modified Scale Interaction Experiment (SINTEX) coupled model, SINTEX-Frontier (SINTEX-F), developed jointly at Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV), L’Institut Pierre-Simon Laplace (IPSL), and the Frontier Research System. The ocean resolution is not changed as the atmospheric mod...

A complete and accurate analysis of the complex spatial structure of heterogeneous hydrocarbon reservoirs requires detailed geological models, i.e. fine resolution models. Due to the high computational cost of simulating such models, single resolution up-scaling techniques are commonly used to reduce the volume of the simulated models at the expense of losing the precision. Several multi-scale ...

to date, a number of numerical methods, including the popular finite-difference time domain (fdtd) technique, have been proposed to simulate ground-penetrating radar (gpr) responses. despite having a number of advantages, the finite-difference method also has pitfalls such as being very time consuming in simulating the most common case of media with high dielectric permittivity, causing the for...

      Many large oil and gas fields in the most productive world regions happen to be fractured. The exploration and development of these reservoirs is a true challenge for many operators. These difficulties are due to uncertainties in geological fracture properties such as aperture, length, connectivity and intensity distribution. To successfully address these challenges, it is paramount to im...

Because of the multi-scale nature of hurricanes, the proposed large-eddy simulation work is also a challenging computational problem. A three-dimensional research cloud model (CM1) with horizontal grid stretching capability is used to conduct convergence test. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is used as a weather-prediction model to examine the eddy-diffusion coefficients obtain...

soil erosion models are useful tools to predict runoff, sediment and soil erosion in watersheds. although, the swat model is used for evaluating runoff discharge and the long-term effects of management operation on water, sediment and agricultural chemical yields in the large watersheds, in this research, its efficiency was investigated in monthly runoff simulation for tuyserkan watershed (with...

the objective of this study is evaluation of topographic wetness index (twi) using attraction model in northern of fars province. the first attraction model was used to enhance the spatial resolution of digital elevation model (dem). in this research to estimate of value of sub-pixels neighboring pixels, touching and quadrant neighboring models were used. after manufacturing output images for s...
