How Do Thermal Recovery Methods Affect Wettability Alteration?

Journal of Petroleum Engineering, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
We will investigate the effect of temperature on wettability. First, we will list and summarize the different schools of thoughts from previous literature describing wettability changes for sandstone and carbonate reservoirs at elevated temperature. Next, we will describe the properties that affect wettability: how they alter wettability and how they ...

Incidence of Difficult Facemask Ventilation and Intubation in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery—A Cross‐Sectional Observational Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cardiac surgery patients often present challenging airways and limited cardiopulmonary reserves, necessitating meticulous preoperative assessment by the anesthesia team. This observational study aimed to determine the incidence of difficult airways in cardiac surgery patients and identify predictive factors. By addressing a

Exfoliation Corrosion and Pitting Corrosion and Their Role in Fatigue Predictive Modeling: State‐of‐the‐Art Review

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Intergranular attack (IG) and exfoliation corrosion (EC) have a detrimental impact on the structural integrity of aircraft structures of all types. Understanding the mechanisms and methods for dealing with these processes and with corrosion in general has been and is critical to the safety of critical components of aircraft.

Axial Vibration Characteristics of Piecewise Large Space Truss Structures

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Large space truss structures (LSTS) are essential load‐bearing components in many spacecraft. Owing to their large size, lightweight design, and high flexibility, they inherently exhibit very low natural frequencies and small damping ratios, making them susceptible to persistent vibrations induced by small disturbances.

Effects of Strain Rates on Kinetics of Elements of Repeated Pattern Structures: A Continuous Modeling Approach

Shock and Vibration, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 545-554, 2012., 2012
Space inflatable technology is a promising solution to placing large metrology systems in space. Lighter weight, higher packaging efficiency, and easier maintenance are among a few of their advantages over mechanically deployed structures. On the other hand, their large volume after deployment makes them susceptible to disturbances in space. Therefore,

Characterization and Reporting Protocols for Structural Power Composites: A Perspective

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 42, November 11, 2025.
Here, the issues for testing and reporting on structural power composites are described: multifunctional materials that can carry loads while providing electrical energy. As well as proposing best practice, the development of a “universal coupon” is recommended for studying these materials and any interactions that occur between the two functions ...

Dynamic Effects of Embedded Macro‐Fiber Composite Actuators on Ultra‐Light Flexible Structures of Repeated Pattern‐ a Homogenization Approach

Shock and Vibration, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 81-100, 2012., 2012
Motivated by deployable satellite technology, this article presents a homogenization model of an inflatable, rigidized lattice structure with distributed macro‐fiber composite (MFC) actuation. The model is based upon a general expression for the strain and kinetic energy of a fundamental repeated element of the structure.

Numerical-experimental static analysis of the effort of the crossbar-longeron in the semi-trailer frame [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2019
The article presents the verification process of a new type of transverse of beam semi-trailer main frame, as an element of the process of developing a new structural design. The main goal of the research was to determine the possibility of using bent sheet metal profiles as the transverse beams in the curtain semi-trailer frame.

An Iterative Determination Method of an Axial Deployment Force of a Lanyard‐Deployed Coilable Mast in Local Coil Mode

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The axial deployment force is an indispensable parameter of a lanyard‐deployed coilable mast, which reflects its load capacity in practical applications. However, research on the axial deployment force in the literature is very limited, and there are no mature numerical methods to determine this parameter in the design stage of coilable masts.
