Influence of Natural Fractures and Laminae on Fracture Propagation and Failure Mode of Continental Shale. [PDF]
Natural fractures and laminae are well-developed in continental shale, which greatly affects the fracture propagation and failure mode. Based on the natural fractures and laminae developed in the outcrops of Triassic continental shale from the southern ...

Proximal humeral fractures with a severe varus deformity treated by fixation with a locking plate [PDF]
We treated 47 patients with a mean age of 57 years (22 to 88) who had a proximal humeral fracture in which there was a severe varus deformity, using a standard operative protocol of anatomical reduction, fixation with a locking plate and supplementation ...

Fracture characteristics based on discrete element method [PDF]
In order to explore the characteristics of fracturing fractures of shale with weak plane development, a fracture propagation model of shale reservoirs taking the weak plane of bedding and natural fractures into account is established by the three ...

Simulation of Fracturing and Well Pattern Optimization of Fractured Tight Sandstone Reservoirs
The fracturing and well pattern optimization of fractured reservoirs is a hot spot in petroleum engineering. In this study, taking the tight oil reservoirs of the Yanchang Formation in the Ordos Basin as an example, an optimized plan of hydraulic ...

Bone fractures after menopause [PDF]
Every year 30% of individuals above age 65 fall, and falls are the principal cause of bone fractures. To reduce fracture incidence requires both prevention of falls and maintenance of bone strength.PubMed searches were performed, for studies of the ...
