Geomechanics is a term that includes a number of important aspects in the petroleum industry, such as studying the changes that can be occur in oil reservoirs and geological structures, and providing a picture of oil well stability during drilling. The current review study concerned about the advancements in the application of the finite element method (FEM) in the geomechanical field over a course of century. Firstly, the study presented the early advancements of this method by development the structural framework of stress, make numerical computer solution for 2D thermal stress then stress analysis of the airplane. The second part focused on the most recent developments of FEM, and this method generates new techniques for solving these problems, such as the 1D, 2D, and 3D finite element models; the dynamic p...

Regarding to significance and status of this problem, it would be accurate to say that all philosophical attempts proving the existence of the soul, have been dealing with setting fourth an explanatory definition of it. As two major figures in this tradition, Avicenna and Aquinas, following Aristotle, got substantially involved in giving a religiously and philosophically valid basis to support the existence of the soul. They both elaborated this concept on the Aristotelian understanding and further developed their own theories, viewing immortality as one of the pivotal features of the soul. For this reason, a succinct explanation of Aristotle's idea of the soul should be inevitably presented. This essay consists of two parts. The first part concerns explaining the concept of the soul, its abstractness and in corporeality and the way it is affiliated to the body, introductory to prove immor...

Trust can be developed for clients by service providers, third parties through an agreement, or special security services. This creates a considerable level of risk in maintaining the privacy and security of processed data by virtual machines. This article presented a new management solution for maintaining the security of personal data in data centers through virtualization, which could be accomplished by opting for a trusted platform and deleting personal data after releasing the intended platform. Using a new concept known as “a quarantined host”, this method assisted in increasing the security level of the infrastructure layer. Results demonstrated that, the presented method was effective in identifying and responding to attacks without inducing any noticeable change in the level of migration or...

Wealth, which is the subject of power struggles, is a purely lucrative illegal culture, especially in processing laboratories. Drug trafficking, an illicit but well-established market, is an international trade that includes all stages, from cultivation to the sale of substances that are, of course, prohibited. That said, drug trafficking is part of the process of globalization as it concerns traffickers who are direct beneficiaries of the prohibition or states that directly benefit from it by leading the war on drugs. In a world of increasing interdependence, inequalities and social disparities that are becoming more and more numerous and exploited, this drug problem is rich in teaching. The geography of drugs is to be considered with regard to the asymmetry of power, wealth and the impact on crises and conflicts.

Explanations of its function fall broadly into two camps. One sees its function as a wiqāyati (“protection”) element, while the other considers it as a personal suffix, i.e. 1 st p. sg. –nī as an object. At the same time this paper argues for the two personal endings for the 1 st p. sg -ī and –nī in order to reach an acceptable morphological analysis. After reviewing the opinions of the classical and modern Arab grammarians about the nūn al-wiqāyati as an Arabic term, its original function becomes clear.

The problem is modeled by the time-dependent Schrodinger-Poisson system. By decomposing the wave function into a non resonant part and a resonant part, the fast algorithm is designed by combining standard finite difference method for the Schrodinger-Poisson equation with proper time-dependent and/or nonlinear transmission boundary condition. In addition, with a suitable interpolation of the non resonant one, an accurate and fast algorithm is presented for the computation of the resonant part via the projection method. With this two scale decomposition, the new numerical method can save the computational time significantly.

We used scintillation NaI(Tl) detector with resolution 8.2% (at 662keV ). The attenuation coefficient data were then used to obtain the effective atomic numbers (Z eff ), and effective electron densities (N eff ), atomic cross-section (бt )and electronic cross-section (бe ) off atty acids. It was observed that the effective atomic number (Z eff ) and effective electron densities (N eff ) initially decrease and tend to be almost constant as a function of gamma-ray energy. Z eff and N eff experimental values showed good agreement with the theoretical. Data on interaction of photons...

In this problem, the crossing of the energy levels of the system at Dirac points requires a particular treatment in the algorithm in order to describe the quantum transition—characterized by the Landau-Zener probability— between different energy levels. We first derive the Landau-Zener probability for the underlying problem, then incorporate it into the surface hopping algorithm. We also show that different asymptotic models for this problem derived in [O. Morandi, F. Schurrer, J. Phys. A:Math. Theor. 44 (2011) 265301]may give different transition probabilities. We conduct numerical experiments to compare the solutions to the Dirac equation, the surface hopping algorithm, and the asymptotic models of [O. Morandi, F. Schurrer, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 (2011) 265301].

It will also clearly set procedures, and evaluation criteria used to qualify MPFM in Saudi Aramco gas condensate/wet gas fields in Saudi Arabia. This trial test was designed to ensure that clear conclusions are reached and that a purely objective evaluation of the results can be performed. The implementation of this new procedure has improved the confidence level of the reference measurement and eliminated any doubts on the performance of the test separator. In this challenging environment of wet gas, this has enabled a clear mapping of each MPFM technology performances and limitations versus operating and fluid conditions. It is the first time in Saudi Aramco to conduct a field trial test using a test sepa...
