Treatment of hydraulic fracturing fluids in petroleum wastewater using physical and biological techniques [PDF]
, 2016 Hydraulic fracturing (‘fracking’) is a drilling and extraction technique that uses large volumes of high-pressure, chemically-treated water to free petroleum and natural gas trapped deep in underground strata.

Development of a three-dimensional compositional hydraulic fracturing simulator for energized fluids [PDF]
, 2013 textCurrent practices in energized treatments, using gases and foams, remain rudimentary in comparison to other fracturing fluid technologies. None of the available 3D fracturing models for incompressible water-based fluids have been able to capture the ...

Radiative Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over a Porous Riga Surface: A Fuzzy–ANN Modeling Approach
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study proposes a fuzzy–ANN model to investigate the nonlinear thermal transport in a tangent hyperbolic (Tanh) hybrid nanofluid flow past a porous Riga surface, considering the effects of Rosseland diffusion, chemical reactions, and internal volumetric heating.

Research on Diaphragm Pump Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Res‐DCB‐Net
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nonstationary pressure pulsation signals of diaphragm pumps contain strong background noise and coupled characteristics. This makes it challenging to extract incipient fault features and to decouple faults with similar physical mechanisms. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a spatiotemporal fault diagnosis model named Res‐DCB ...

Supine‐Position Shoulder Arthroscopy Using the Anterior Portal as the Initial Approach
Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract Traditional shoulder arthroscopy mostly adopts the beach chair position or lateral decubitus position. Beach chair position is associated with the risk of cerebral hypoperfusion due to the vertical distance between the carotid artery and the heart, whereas lateral decubitus may induce brachial plexus palsy caused by excessive traction.
