Drag Reduction Mechanism of Viscoelastic Slick-Water Fracturing Fluid in Tortuous and Rough Fractures

Geofluids, 2021
Slick-water can effectively reduce the flow drag of fracturing fluid. Many studies have focused on the drag reduction performance of slick-water in wellbore and perforation, but there has been little research on drag reduction characteristics in fracture

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

Long-span Suspension Bridge Flutter Analysis ‎with Drag Force Effects

Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2021
The paper investigates the influence of the drag force onto the flutter velocity and frequency of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. Finite element analyses were run in ANSYS by combining unsteady lift and moment actions with: (a) unsteady drag, (b) steady drag, (c) no drag.

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.

Drag reduction and degradation by sodium alginate in turbulent flow

Scientific Reports
The utilization of drag-reducing polymers has long been hindered by their irritancy, corrosiveness, and toxicity across various domains. In this investigation, we explored sodium alginate, a natural drag reducer, for its efficacy in reducing drag and its
