This approach is based on exponential and constant bottom-hole pressure solution. Based on this method, when In （flow rate） is plotted versus time, two straight lines are ob- tained which can be used for estimating different parameters of a naturally fractured reservoir. Parameters such as storage capacity ratio （co）, reservoir drainage area （A）, reservoir shape factor （CA）, fracture per- meability （ky）, interporosity flow parameter （,~） and the other parameters can be determined by this ap- proach. The equations are based on a model originally presented by Warren and Root and extended by Da Prat et al. and Mavor and Cinco-Ley. The proposed method has been developed to be used for naturally fractured reservoirs with different geometries. This method does not involve the use of any chart and by us- ing the pseudo steady state flow regime, the influence of wellbore storage on the value of the parameters ob- tained from this technique is negligible. In this technique, all the parameters can be obtained directly while in conventional approaches like type curve matching method, parameters such as co and g should be ob- tained by other methods like build-up test analysis and this is one of the most important advantages of this method that could save time during reservoir analyses. Different simulated and field examples were used for testing the proposed technique. Comparison between the obtained results by this approach and the results of type curve matching method shows a high performance of decline curves in well testing.展开更多

Numerical examples illustrate that the quasi-conforming elements of the curved beam and shallow curved beam which is used to approximate the curved beam have better accuracy than the straight beam clement. The curved beam element constructed by displacement method can not satisfy rigid body motion condition and the very fine grids have to be used in order to satisfy rigid body motion condition approxtmately.In this paper it is proved that the straight beam element and the quasi-conforming element of the curved beam and shallow curved beam, when element size is reduced infinitely, have convergence rate with the same order O(l2) and when regular elements are used.

Several different conditions were studied under simulated boiler conditions at 650 ℃. The protection effect of an Al coating deposited by HVAS onto the Ni-Cr coating was also investigated. Microscope, X-ray diffraction and corrosion rate curves have been used to analyze corrosion mechanisms. The experimental results show that: 1) The oxidation rates are almost superposed in both air (no SO3) and in simulated coal-fired gas (containing SO3) as long as no salt was present on the surface. These rate curves show a logarithmic relationship. 2) When the surface is coated with salt (75%K2SO3 + 25%Na2SO3) the rate curve for LTHC of the Ni-Cr coated surface shows a parabolic shape in the simulated coal-fire flue gas. In air only the oxidation reaction takes place, the second type of LTHC was not seen. And 3) the Al over coating on the Ni-Cr enhances resistance to LTHC because an inter-metallic compound, Al3Ni2, forms at the Al/Ni-Cr interface and because of the increase in coating thickness.展开更多

Methods Eleven mongrel dogs were subjected to occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery for acute ischemia. Strain rate imaging had M-mode of strain-rate （CAMM） curve pointed from the basal segment of the anterior wall to the basal segment of the inferior wall to detect the border of ischemia size. The strain rate （SR） defined the cut-off value of ischemic myocardium in a two-chamber apical view, and marked by the anterior and inferior wall on two-dimensional images respectively. Along the endocardium and epicardium, the ischemic size was curved on two-dimensional images by the trackball method and then compared with the pathologically ischemic size. And then longitudinal strain rates were compared in the cut-off value, adjacent non-ischemic and ischemic segments at which the cut-off point was defined by changing the curve M-mode of strain rate after ischemia. Results Linear correlation existed between pathology and strain rate ischemic size （r=0.884, P 〈0.001）. The SR parameters were lower in ischemia and cut-off point than in non-ischemic segments. The peak SRs of systole （SSR）, early diastole （EsR）, late diastole （ASR）, strain during ejection time （εet）, and the maximum length change during the entire heart cycle （Emax） in ischemic segments lowered （P〈0.05）. Time to onset of regional relaxation （TR） was prolonged （P=0.012）. Conclusion SR imaging can accurately assess the size of ischemic myocardium. Chin Med J 2009; 122（2）： 193-198展开更多
