纳米级超声造影剂的理论研究进展

为了克服超声造影剂中微米级气泡尺寸较大的局限性,大量研究人员对超声应用的替代造影剂(纳米级造影剂)进行了研究。随着生物纳米技术的飞速发展,纳米级超声造影剂在诊断与治疗领域有着广阔的发展前景。与超声造影剂中的微米级气泡相比,纳米级造影剂粒径较小,渗透能力极强,可以通过血管内皮间隙,进而可以实现血管外病变部位的显影。文中详细论述了超声造影剂在超声作用下的行为以及2种主要的纳米级造影剂:纳米气泡和纳米液滴造影剂,对其理论研究进展进行了总结,并提出了目前仍存在的一些问题及其未来的研究方向。     

气藏平均地层压力跟踪计算新方法

平均地层压力是产能评价和动态分析的基础，准确、快速获取平均地层压力对高效开发气藏意义重大。基于地层压力随时间变化的规律，分析了平均地层压力的变化规律。研究结果表明：平均地层压力等效点仅随时间发生改变，平均地层压力的下降速率等于或者近似等于井底流压的下降速率。从封闭弹性驱动气藏的物质平衡方程出发，考虑偏差系数和井底流压随平均地层压力的变化，推导建立了平均地层压力跟踪计算新方法，根据生产数据可迭代计算平均地层压力。方法验证结果显示，采气速度和采出程度共同影响模型的计算结果。应用实例表明，跟踪计算法与压力恢复试井和物质平衡法之间的相对误差均较小，满足工程计算精度要求，且跟踪计算法不需依托生产测试数据，节约了测试费用，避免了测试占产。

Squeezed MHD tangent hyperbolic fluid flow across a sensor surface

In the present numerical study, the combined effect of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, linear thermal radiation, and magnetic effect on shear-thinning tangent hyperbolic fluid past a sensor surface has been studied. After converting the modelled partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation, the system of equations is tackled with the aid of the shooting method. The influence of important parameters on the fluid motion and energy distribution is displayed graphically and analyzed in detail. The presented simulations depict that a significant rise in fluid velocity is noticed for an enhancement in the magnetic parameter while an opposite trend is observed for the temperature distribution. Moreover, the skin friction coefficient decreases as the squeezed flow index is increased.     

A modified Kozeny–Carman equation for predicting saturated hydraulic conductivity of compacted bentonite in confined condition

Kozeny–Carman (KC) equation is a well-known relation between hydraulic conductivity and pore properties in porous material. The applications of KC equation to predicting saturated hydraulic conductivities of sands and non-expansive soils are well documented. However, KC equation is incapable of predicting saturated hydraulic conductivity of expansive soil (e.g. bentonite) well. Based on a new dual-pore system, this study modified KC equation for improving the prediction of saturated hydraulic conductivities of bentonites. In this study, an assumption that inter-layer space (micropore) has limited effect on fluid flow performance of compacted bentonite was adopted. The critical parameters including total porosity and total tortuosity in conventional KC equation were replaced by macroporosity and tortuosity of macropore, respectively. Macroporosity and microporosity were calculated by basal spacing of compacted bentonite, which was estimated by assuming that specific surface area is changeable during saturation process. A comprehensive comparison of bentonite's saturated hydraulic conductivity predictions, including modified KC equation proposed in this study, conventional KC equation, and prediction method based on diffuse double layer (DDL) theory, was carried out. It was found that the predicted saturated hydraulic conductivity of bentonites calculated using modified KC equation fitted the experimental data better than others to a certain extent.     

Analysis of predictor equations for determining the blast-induced vibration in rock blasting

The paper proposes a new empirical correlation designed to complement the “site laws” currently used to evaluate the attenuation in the rock masses of vibrations induced by rock blasting. The formula contains a deformed exponential known as the K-exponential, which seems to well represent a large number of both natural and artificial phenomena ranging from astrophysics to quantum mechanics, with some extension in the field of economics and finance. Experimental validation of the formula was performed via the analysis of vibration data covering a number of case studies, which differed in terms of both operation and rock type. A total of 12 experimental cases were analysed and the proposed formulation exhibited a good performance in 11 of them. In particular, the proposed law, which was built using blast test data, produced very good approximations of the points representing the vibration measurements and would thus be useful in organising production blasts. However, the developed formula was found to work less well when a correlation obtained for a given site was applied to another presenting similar types of rocks and operations, and thus should not be employed in the absence of measurements from test data.     

接触器触头系统振动机理分析及算法优化

为了解决合闸过程中动、静触头接触引起的振动弹跳问题.本文建立了接触系统的二自由度运动微分方程,并利用遗传算法对交流接触器吸合过程进行优化,同时通过高速摄影实验对接触弹跳的全过程进行了观察和分析.结果表明:理论与实验结果高度一致,铁心在触头分离前发生碰撞,进一步加剧触头弹跳;铁芯弹跳再次碰撞时,触头的弹跳不受影响;在接触器运行过程中,动铁芯的运动会引起系统轻微振动;采用遗传算法优化的接触器触头弹跳时间和最大振幅均减小.研究结果为进一步控制和减小接触弹跳提供了理论依据.     

Quasi gradient-based inversion-free iterative algorithm for solving a class of the nonlinear matrix equations

Inspired by the gradient-based and inversion-free iterations, a new quasi gradient-based inversion-free iterative algorithm is proposed for solving the nonlinear matrix equation $X+A^{\mathrm{T}}{X}^{?n}A=I$. The convergence proof of the suggested algorithm is given. Several matrix norm inequalities are established to depict the convergence properties of this algorithm. Three numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the suggested algorithms.

基于可变临界孔隙度Nur模型的页岩气层横波速度预测

准确的横波测井速度是影响地震叠前属性分析及反演质量的重要参数，在缺乏偶极横波测井情况下需要用Krief、Pride等数学模型预测横波，近年来临界孔隙度模型在计算骨架的弹性模量中应用效果较好。在前人研究的临界孔隙度模型的基础上，发展出了可变临界孔隙度的Nur模型，并将遗传算法应用于可变临界孔隙度的计算，最终估算得到了页岩气层的横波速度。实例应用表明，遗传算法可以计算得到沿井眼不同深度的临界孔隙度，而且预测得到的横波与偶极横波测井（DSI）一致性好，证明该方法应用于页岩气的横波估算中是可行的。
