渤海绥中油田J3井疏水缔合聚合物驱数值模拟研究

为了进一步提高渤海油田J3井区缔合聚合物驱的技术经济效果,在渤海油田室内配方和先导性矿场试验研究基础上,利用化学驱油藏数值模拟软件FAPMS,分析和研究了高浓度缔合聚合物前置段塞、主段塞的大小和浓度以及段塞组合方式对驱油效果的影响,优化设计了渤海绥中油田J3井区块矿场试验的最佳注入程序及段塞大小。结果表明,通过对不同浓度的疏水缔合聚合物注入的前置段塞及主段塞和梯度式后续段塞的优化后,原油采收率比未优化时提高了约10个百分点。研究表明,渤海油田应该高度重视聚合物驱的注入方式和段塞优化设计,进一步提高聚合物的技术经济效果。     

基于主体外部轮廓的照片分割算法

在实际应用中常常需要将人像从照片的背景中有效地分割出来，通常的做法是通过提取照片中人像各部分特征来实现分割，其缺陷是计算复杂度较大，分割效果受各种干扰因素影响很大。现提出了一种基于主体外部轮廓信息的照片分割算法，通过梯度锐化、边缘保护、临近像素点相似度比较来确定图像的边界，该算法对于具有相对均匀背景的照片具有较高的计算效率。

Computing surfaces invariant under subdivision

In this paper, we propose a general subdivision algorithm for generating surfaces. The algorithm has as motivation our earlier work on the design of free form curves where similar ideas were investigated. Here we describe some properties of uniform refinement algorithms for surface generation. A detail analysis of their properties will be given later by one of us.     

Micromechanical approach to damage mechanics of composite materials with fabric tensors

The purpose of this study is to apply continuum damage mechanics – introduced through the concept of fabric tensors – to composite materials within the framework of the theory of elasticity. A directional data model of damage mechanics for composite materials will be developed using fabric tensors. The introduction of fabric tensors into the analysis of damage of composite materials will allow for an enhanced and better understood physical meaning of damage. The micromechanical approach will be used here to relate the damage effect through fabric tensors to the behavior of composite materials. In this approach, damage mechanics is introduced separately to the constituents of the composite material through different constituents’ damage effect tensors. The damaged properties of the composite system as a whole can then be obtained by proper homogenization of the damaged properties of the constituents.

The derivation of a generalized formulation of damage evolution will be shown here in a mathematically consistent manner that is based on sound thermodynamic principles. Numerical examples will be presented to show applicability. In addition, damage evolution for the one-dimensional tension case is also illustrated.

Linear Algebra Considerations for the Multi-Threaded Simulation of Mechanical Systems

A solution method suitable for the multi-threaded simulation ofmechanical systems represented in Cartesian coordinates isproposed and analyzed. In a state-space framework for thesolution of the Differential Algebraic Equations (DAE) ofMultibody Dynamics, the position/velocity stabilization and theacceleration computation are based on iterative solvers applied toequivalent reduced problems. The most in-depth computationalaspect analyzed is the preconditioning, i.e., the direct solutionof the reduced systems. Provided a topology index reduction is first applied to the model, the effort for the direct solution of the reduced systems is shown to be of order O(N _J ), where N _J is the number of joints in the model. The recurring theme of thepaper is the central role that the topology of the mechanicalsystem plays in the overall performance of the numericalsimulation. Based on the topology of the model, parallelcomputational threads can be established to start in the equationformulation and continue through the iterative numericalalgorithms employed for the numerical solution. Task schedulingthese parallel threads is expected to redeem real-time performancefor certain classes of complex applications.     

Consolidation of Long-Term Memory: Evidence and Alternatives.

Memory loss in retrograde amnesia has long been held to be larger for recent periods than for remote periods, a pattern usually referred to as the Ribot gradient. One explanation for this gradient is consolidation of long-term memories. Several computational models of such a process have shown how consolidation can explain characteristics of amnesia, but they have not elucidated how consolidation must be envisaged. Here findings are reviewed that shed light on how consolidation may be implemented in the brain. Moreover, consolidation is contrasted with alternative theories of the Ribot gradient. Consolidation theory, multiple trace theory, and semantization can all handle some findings well but not others. Conclusive evidence for or against consolidation thus remains to be found.

An investigation of the unstable region for dense phase conveying in sliding bed flow

For fine powdered materials, capable of being conveyed in dense phase, a conveying region exists in which instability in flow and pipeline blockage can occur if the pressure gradient available is insufficient to maintain a minimum value of solids loading ratio. A reduction in material flow rate can also lead to pipeline blockage in this region. Conveying trials under-taken with cement are used to illustrate the nature of the problem.
