Analysis of spontaneous electrochemical oscillations by energy distribution technique

Analysis of non-stationary electrochemical oscillations emerges utilization of the techniques allowing an observation of time evolution of their parameters such as instantaneous frequency, amplitude or frequency band. An algorithm of extraction of these parameters can be based on one of linear or quadratic time-frequency representations of oscillations record. In this paper, the authors present representatives of such transformations (Choi-Williams and Cone-shaped) originating from one of the most popular joint time-frequency energy distribution—Wigner-Ville distribution. Short introduction to the mathematics of the topic discussed is provided, then the authors present an example of application in the analysis of current oscillations of copper dissolution process.     

西部地区深井井身结构设计技术探讨

科学合理地确定井身结构及钻井液密度是深井超深井钻井的关键环节之一，其基础是准确建立地层孔隙压力、地应力、破裂压力、坍塌压力的钻前预测剖面。分析了西部地区目前深井井身结构的缺点和进行井身结构应考虑的问题，介绍了深探井井身结构的设计方法，并针对西部复杂地区的地层特点，建议采用3种增加技术套管的井身结构方案。塔河油田钻井实践表明，采用这3种井身结构方案后，深井机械钻速得到提高，钻井周期缩短，而且降低了钻井成本。

变形介质中宾汉稠油驱替特征

通过建立变形介质中考虑启动压力梯度的一维两相宾汉稠油驱替的数学模型,并进行了数值求解,分析了地层变形以及启动压力梯度对水驱稠油的影响,分析表明:介质变形对含水饱和度的分布没有影响,而对地层压力的影响是非常显著的,随着变形介质弹性的增加,地层压力越来越低,并且越靠近注入端,地层压力下降越快;原油的启动压力梯度同时影响含水饱和度和地层压力的分布,在其它条件一定时,启动压力梯度的存在,造成地层压力的增加和平均含水饱和度的降低。在油田开发实际中,应考虑地层变形和启动压力梯度的影响,以提高原油采收率。     

高压对气井套管接头螺纹接触应力的影响研究

高温高压气井对螺纹密封性的要求要比油井更为严格。对于高压气井中的整个管柱,每一段处于不同的力学环境中,发生泄漏的可能性也不同,因此研究压力对气井套管接头螺纹接触应力的影响,对高压气井套管的合理使用尤为重要。利用弹塑性有限元分析方法,建立了API偏梯型螺纹套管接头的有限元模型,分析了气井压力对套管接头接触应力的影响,提供了研究压力对套管接头螺纹接触应力影响的方法。对于井口压力或井底压力超过34MPa的高压气井,应选用气密性良好的特殊螺纹接头,建议采用金属对金属的螺纹接头套管,以加强螺纹部位的连接强度和密封性能。     

Characterization of the Residence Time Distribution in Spray Dryers

In this work it is presented a study on the residence time distribution (RTD) of particles in a co-current pilot-plant spray dryer operated with a rotary atomization system. A nuclear technique is applied to investigate the RTD responses of spray dryers. The methodology is based on the injection of a radioisotope tracer in the feed stream followed by the monitoring of its concentration at the outlet stream. The experiments were performed during the drying of aqueous suspensions of gadolinium oxide. The RTD responses obtained experimentally presented good reproducibility, indicating that the technique applied is well suited to investigating fluid-dynamics of spray dryers. In addition to the experimental investigation, a mathematical model was used to describe the RTD experimental curves.     

Sociotechnical systems, risk management, and public health: comparing the North Battleford and Walkerton outbreaks

Accidents in different complex sociotechnical systems are rarely compared using the same theoretical framework for risk management. We conducted a comparative analysis of two Canadian public health disasters involving drinking water distribution systems, the North Battleford Cryptosporidium parvum outbreak in April 2001 and the Walkerton E. coli outbreak in May 2000. Both accidents resulted from a complex interaction between all levels of a complex sociotechnical system. However, the low-level physical and individual factors differed in the two cases, whereas, the high-level governmental and regulatory factors tended to be the same. These findings may have implications for the design of public policies to minimize risk in complex sociotechnical systems.
