The evaluation of defect size and nature are two most controversial topics in ultrasonic flaw detection. The operation consists of an application of ultrasonic waves to pipes in order to detect metal loss and other defects in the pipe wall due to corrosion and other degradation ... En savoir plus
Logging-while-drilling (LWD) acoustic transducers provide real-time data about the geologic and geophysical properties of the borehole that ensure safety margins and optimize completion. It is important to understand what causes the different resonance modes in the transmitter and obtain ... En savoir plus
Drilled shafts are cylindrical, cast-in-place concrete deep foundation elements used for heavy structures such as highway bridges and tall buildings. Construction involves drilled excavation of soil or rock using large diameter augers to form a deep cylindrical void, placement of the ... En savoir plus
Water-and-energy supply is a global issue of paramount importance. The demand for safe potable water is quickly exceeding the limits of natural regional water resources. Like oil, water is a finite resource; unlike oil, however, water has no alternatives. Water, energy and their ... En savoir plus
Introduction Micro-Spherically Focused Logging (MSFL) tool is a microresistivity open-hole logging tool designed to measure the resistivity of the flushed zone, a region of formation close to the borehole, independent of any mudcake on the borehole wall. Original designs of MSFL were ... En savoir plus
A comparison of discrete fracture and explicit fracture models for single-phase flow in fractured porous media using COMSOL Multiphysics® software is presented to understand the contribution of each individual fracture to fluid flow, and the exchange between fracture and surrounding ...

THM (Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical) behavior of the reservoir during SAGD (Steam-Assistant-Gravity-Drainage) was studied through a proper constitutive modeling of the porous media. Specifically, a generalized density-stress-fabric dependent elasto-plastic model with stress-dilatancy and ... En savoir plus
In a previous publication [1], a porous media model for simulating the pressure development in heated concrete has been presented, which is based on the classical formulation given in [2]. However this formulation has some drawbacks, which are addressed in a new implementation. The ... En savoir plus
Magnetorheological Finishing (MRF) is one of the precision finishing processes in which magnetic field is used to drive abrading forces for Finishing 2D and complex 3D surfaces. In this paper, Ball End Magnetorheological Finishing (BEMRF) has been analyzed for fluid behaviors under the ... En savoir plus
Introduction The COMSOL Multiphysics® software and its CFD Module have a physics interface for solving Laminar Two-Phase Flow problems using the Level Set method (1). This paper discusses how the tool may be used with more than two phases when the flow is laminar. It then introduces a ... En savoir plus
