Critical Evaluation of Infill Well Placement and Optimization of Well Spacing Using the Particle Swarm Algorithm
(2016-06-16)Optimizing the placement of new wells and well spacing is a vital issue in oil field development. Drilling infill wells is one way to maximize the recovery of oil from reservoirs. The problem of infill well placement is ...

Implication of Void Prediction in the Determination of Pressure Gradient in Vertical Pipes
(2016-06-16)This research work mainly investigates the implication of void prediction in the estimation of total pressure gradient in vertical pipes for multiphase flow systems. Experimental data was collected for a multiphase flow ...

Petrophysical Evaluation of Flow units of the Agbada-Akata Formations in the Niger Delta
(2016-06-16)Clastic reservoirs may be heterogeneous and exhibit lateral and vertical variations in porosity and permeability. Therefore, the spatial distribution of the petrophysical properties within the reservoirs is important to ...

Development of a Gas Condensate Reservoir: Case Study of the Niger Delta
(2016-06-16)Gas condensate reservoirs are single phase at the initial condition. It changes to multiphase when the reservoir conditions are located between the critical point and the cricondentherm of the reservoir in the phase envelope. ...

Formal and Operational Study of P-Devs
(2011-12-15)Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) is a sound formal modeling and simulation (M&S) structure based on generic dynamic system concepts. PDEVS (Parallel Discrete Event System Specification) is a well-known formalism ...

Linear Waves in the Interior of Extremal Black Holes II
(Springer NatureAnnales Henri Poincare, 2017-12-01)We consider solutions to the linear wave equation in the interior region of extremal Kerr black holes. We show that axisymmetric solutions can be extended continuously beyond the Cauchy horizon and moreover that, if we ...

The Interval Programming Model Solution Algorithm Experimentation Tools and Results
(2017-09-01)Interval programming (IvP) is model for representing multi-objective optimization problems along with a set of solution algorithms. This paper describes a set of IvP solution experiments run over randomly generated problem ...

A Data-Driven Feature Extraction Method for Enhanced Phonocardiogram Segmentation
In this work, we present a method to extract features from heart sound signals in order to enhance segmentation performance. The approach is data-driven, since the way features are extracted from the recorded signals is ...

Inference and Regeneration of Programs that Manipulate Relational Databases
(2017-08-29)We present a new technique that infers models of programs that manipulate relational databases. This technique generates test databases and input commands, runs the program, then observes the resulting outputs and updated ...

D-modules on rigid analytic spaces II: Kashiwara’s equivalence
(American Mathematical SocietyJournal of Algebraic Geometry, 2018-01-01)Let X be a smooth rigid analytic space. We prove that the category of co-admissible D-cap-modules on a smooth rigid analytic space supported on a closed smooth subvariety is naturally equivalent to the category of co-admissible ...

Analytical and experimental investigation into the effects of leading-edge radius on gust-aerofoil interaction noise
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017-10-25)This paper investigates the effects of local leading-edge geometry on unsteady aerofoil interaction noise. Analytical results are obtained by extending previous work for parabolic leading edges to leading edges of the form ...
