Applying the Simplified Local Density Model to Study the Effects fo Confinement on Density in Shale Formation
(2016)
The pores in shale gas reservoirs are represented on a nanometer scale. In addition to having smaller pore sizes than conventional reservoirs, shale gas reservoirs exhibit different mechanisms of gas storage, i.e. gas ...
SON: PREDICTING THE NATURE OF SERVICE DISRUPTIONS IN CELLULAR NETWORKS
(2016-12)
An important aspect of communication is involved in its cellular network. To meet the demands, communication requires the next generation cellular network, i.e., self organizing networks (SON). In order to implement a ...
Synoptic and Local Influences on a Summertime, Long-Lived, Mixed-Phase Cloud Event Over Summit, Greenland
