Bipolar q $q$‐Fractional Fuzzy Aggregation Operators for Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making in Optimal Renewable Energy Selection

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study introduces bipolar q‐fractional fuzzy sets and new aggregation operators to support renewable energy selection under uncertainty. The proposed decision‐making framework effectively integrates positive and negative evaluations, ensuring consistent ranking and robust performance, as demonstrated through practical analysis and comparative ...

Multidisciplinary approach for the sustainable utilization of medium-low temperature geothermal resources

open access: yes, 2013
A growing interest in the applications of the medium-low temperature geothermal resources can be observed, but often a reference frame in this field does not exist. Different backgrounds are involved in the design and optimization of geothermal projects:

Spatial Variations in Methane Content and Their Main Controlling Factors of the Deep‐Buried Coalbed in the Nalinhe–Hengshan Area, Ordos Basin

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Ash yield is the primary geological factor controlling the spatial variations in the total gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin. However, porosity dominates the differential enrichment of the free gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin.

Stability Evaluation and Parametric Optimization of Coal‐Concrete Composite Bearing Systems Under Mine‐Water‐Induced Deterioration: Experiments and FEINN Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

A simple, inexpensive downhole geothermal fluid sampler [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
Several commercially available downhole water samplers have been used in a high temperature geothermal well in Hawaii; none have been able to withstand the temperature-pressure conditions found at the bottom of the hole (358°C, 150 kg/cm2). A sampler has

Designing Orthogonal‐Arc Trajectories for Horizontal Wells to Reduce Drilling Cost in Development of Shale Oil/Gas Reservoirs

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Designing 3‐dimensional (3D) horizontal well trajectories is critical for enhancing drilling efficiency in shale reservoirs. This paper proposes an innovative Orthogonal‐Arc Trajectory (OAT) for 3D horizontal wells, which employs a single constant curvature in the curved section.
