Geological History of the Dry Valleys, Antarctica, Based on the Stable Isotope Studies

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1977
In 1973, DVDP 4 drilling was performed to obtain unconsolidated sediments of Lake Vanda, McMurdo Oasis. The cored sediments were found to contain layered salt concretions composed of gypsum, thenardite and calcite.

Optimized Selenium‐Doped Nanocomposites for Enhanced Polymer Gel Performance in Permeability Reduction

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excessive water production in mature oil fields necessitates robust shut‐off treatments, yet conventional polymer gels often fail under high‐temperature and high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to enhance gel thermal stability and mechanical strength by incorporating selenium‐doped Ag/AgO–ZnO nanocomposites synthesized via a novel green ...

Impact of Cattaneo–Christov Heat and Mass Flux on MHD Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over an Extending Surface With Convective and Mass Flux Effects

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the flow of a magnetized hybrid nanofluid over a permeable stretching surface. The mass and thermal transport within the system is regulated using the Cattaneo–Christov flux theory. The fluid is additionally subjected to thermophoresis, chemical reaction, Brownian motion, and activation energy effects.

The Geological Survey of Canada sedimentation flume

open access: yes, 1972
A recirculating, tiltable, sedimentation flume has been constructed, primarily for research on fluvial processes, although the apparatus can be adapted easily to studies of lacustrine and certain beach phenomena. The main channel is 18. 3 metres long, O. 76 metres wide, and O. 6 metres deep. A transparent acrylic section 5 metres long exists in each of

Synergistic Physicochemical Inhibition of Reactive Shale Formations Using Hydrothermally Synthesized Hydroxyapatite Nickel Tungstate Nanocomposites in Water‐Based Drilling Fluids

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wellbore instability driven by the volumetric expansion of reactive shale formations remains a primary operational challenge in modern drilling engineering, causing severe mechanical failures and substantial economic deficits. The objective of this study is to formulate and evaluate a novel dual‐action chemical additive capable of ...
