Abstract:
In the case of fracturing of the reservoirs using fracturing fluids, the size of damage to the proppant conductivity caused by treatment fluids is significant, which greatly influence the effective execution of hydraulic fracturing operations. The fracturing fluid should be characterized by the minimum damage to the conductivity of a fracture filled with proppant. A laboratory research procedure has been developed to study the damage effect caused by foamed and non-foamed fracturing fluids in the fractures filled with proppant material. The paper discusses the results for high quality foamed guar-based linear gels, which is an innovative aspect of the work compared to the non-foamed frac described in most of the studies and simulations. The tests were performed for the fracturing fluid based on a linear polymer (HPG—hydroxypropyl guar, in liquid and powder form). The rheology of nitrogen foamed-based fracturing fluids (FF) with a quality of 70% was investigated. The quartz sand and ceramic light proppant LCP proppant was placed between two Ohio sandstone rock slabs and subjected to a given compressive stress of 4000–6000 psi, at a temperature of 60 °C for 5 h. A significant reduction in damage to the quartz proppant was observed for the foamed fluid compared to that damaged by the 7.5 L/m3 natural polymer-based non-foamed linear fluid. The damage was 72.3% for the non-foamed fluid and 31.5% for the 70% foamed fluid, which are superior to the guar gum non-foamed fracturing fluid system. For tests based on a polymer concentration of 4.88 g/L, the damage to the fracture conductivity by the non-foamed fluid was 64.8%, and 26.3% for the foamed fluid. These results lead to the conclusion that foamed fluids could damage the fracture filled with proppant much less during hydraulic fracturing treatment. At the same time, when using foamed fluids, the viscosity coefficient increases a few times compared to the use of non-foamed fluids, which is necessary for proppant carrying capacities and properly conducted stimulation treatment. The research results can be beneficial for optimizing the type and performance of fracturing fluid for hydraulic fracturing in tight gas formations.

Abstract:
Summary Foam is used in the oil industry in a variety of applications, and polymer is sometimes added to increase foam's stability and effectiveness. A variety of surfactant and polymer combinations have been employed to generate polymer-enhanced foam (PEF), typically anionic surfactants and anionic polymers, to reduce their adsorption in reservoir rock. While addition of polymer to bulk foam is known to increase its viscosity and apparent stability, polymer addition to foams for use in porous media has not been as effective. In this pore-level modeling study, we develop an apparent viscosity expression for PEF at fixed bubble size, as a preliminary step to interpret the available laboratory coreflood data. To derive the apparent viscosity, the pressure-drop calculation of Hirasaki and Lawson (1985) for gas bubbles in a circular tube is extended to include the effects of shear-thinning polymer in water, employing the Bretherton's asymptotic matching technique. For polymer rheology, the Ellis model is employed, which predicts a limiting Newtonian viscosity at the low-shear limit and the well-known power-law relation at high shear rates. While the pressure drop caused by foam can be characterized fully with only the capillary number for Newtonian liquid, the shear-thinning liquid requires one additional grouping of the Ellis-model parameters and bubble velocity. The model predicts that the apparent viscosity for PEF shows behavior more shear-thinning than that for polymer-free foam, because the polymer solution being displaced by gas bubbles in pores tends to experience a high shear rate. Foam apparent viscosity scales with gas velocity (Ug) with an exponent [-a/(a+2)], where a, the Ellis-model exponent, is greater than 1 for shear-thinning fluids. With a Newtonian fluid, for which a = 1, foam apparent viscosity is proportional to the (-1/3) power of Ug, as derived by Hirasaki and Lawson. A simplified capillary-bundle model study shows that the thin-film flow around a moving foam bubble is generally in the high-shear, power-law regime. Because the flow of polymer solution in narrower, water-filled tubes is also governed by shear-thinning rheology, it affects foam mobility as revealed by plot of pressure gradient as a function of water and gas superficial velocities. The relation between the rheology of the liquid phase and that of the foam is not simple, however. The apparent rheology of the foam depends on the rheology of the liquid, the trapping and mobilization of gas as a function of pressure gradient, and capillary pressure, which affects the apparent viscosity of the flowing gas even at fixed bubble size. Introduction When a gas such as CO2 or N2 is injected into a mature oil reservoir for improved oil recovery, its sweep efficiency is usually very poor because of gravity segregation, reservoir heterogeneity, and viscous fingering of gas, and foam is employed to improve sweep efficiency with better mobility control (Shi and Rossen 1998; Zeilinger et al. 1996). When oil is produced from a thin oil reservoir overlain with a gas zone, a rapid coning of gas can drastically reduce oil production rate, and foam is used to delay the gas coning (Aarra et al. 1997; Chukwueke et al. 1998; Dalland and Hanssen 1997; Thach et al. 1996). During a well stimulation operation with acid, a selective placement of acid into a low-permeability zone from which oil has not been swept is desired, which can be accomplished with use of foam (Cheng et al. 2002). For environmental remediation of subsurface soil using surfactant, foam is used to improve displacement of contaminant, such as DNAPL, from heterogeneous soil (Mamun et al. 2002).

Abstract:
A key component in the quantitative assessment of the risk posed to spacecraft by the micrometeoroid and orbital debris (MMOD) environment is frequently referred to as a ballistic limit equation (BLE). A frequently used BLE for dual-wall configurations (which are commonly used on spacecraft to protect them against the MMOD environment) is the New Non-Optimum, or “NNO”, BLE. In design applications where a BLE is needed for a new structural system that has not yet been tested, but resembles to a fair degree a dual-wall system, it is common practice to equivalence the materials, thicknesses, etc., of the new system to the materials, thicknesses, etc., of a dual-wall system. In this manner, the NNO BLE can be used to estimate the failure / non-failure response characteristics for the new system. One such structural wall system for which a BLE does not yet exist is a dual-wall system that is stuffed with a lightweight polymer-based foam material. In this paper we demonstrate that the NNO BLE, in its original form, frequently over- or under-predicts the response of such a system. However, when the NNO BLE is modified to more properly include the effects of the presence of the foam as well as the actual material properties of the walls and the impacting projectile, there is a marked improvement in its predictive abilities.

Abstract:
The notochord is a conserved axial structure that in vertebrates serves as a hydrostatic scaffold for embryonic axis elongation and, later on, for proper spine assembly. It consists of a core of large fluid-filled vacuolated cells surrounded by an epithelial sheath that is encased in extracellular matrix. During morphogenesis, the vacuolated cells inflate their vacuole and arrange in a stereotypical staircase pattern. We investigated the origin of this pattern and found that it can be achieved purely by simple physical principles. We are able to model the arrangement of vacuolated cells within the zebrafish notochord using a physical model composed of silicone tubes and water-absorbing polymer beads. The biological structure and the physical model can be accurately described by the theory developed for the packing of spheres and foams in cylinders. Our experiments with physical models and numerical simulations generated several predictions on key features of notochord organization that we documented and tested experimentally in zebrafish. Altogether, our data reveal that the organization of the vertebrate notochord is governed by the density of the osmotically swelling vacuolated cells and the aspect ratio of the notochord rod. We therefore conclude that self-organization underlies morphogenesis of the vertebrate notochord. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue on ‘Mechanics of development’.

Lighter alcohols like ethanol and methanol are easily miscible with gasoline and by blending alcohols with gasoline; a part of conventional fuel can be replaced while contributing to fuel economy. Several researchers tested various ethanol blends on different engine test rigs and identified ethanol as one of the most promising ecofriendly fuels for spark ignition engine. Its properties high octane number, high latent heat of vaporization give better performance characteristics and reduces exhaust emissions compared to gasoline. This paper focuses on studying the effects of blending 50 of ethanol by volume with gasoline as it hardly needs engine modifications. Gasoline (E0) and E50 fuels were investigated experimentally on single-cylinder, four-stroke port fuel injection spark ignition engine by varying engine speed from 1500 rpm to 3500 rpm. Performance Characteristics like torque, brake power, specific fuel consumption, and volumetric efficiency and exhaust emissions such as HC, CO, CO2, NOx were studied..

Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) is the medical device which is recommended for the patients to improve the walking ability and decrease the risk of falls. Custom AFOs provide better fit, comfort and performance than pre-manufactured ones. The technique of 3D-printing is suitable for making custom AFOs. Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a 3D-printing method for custom AFO applications with the desired resistance and material deposition rate. Generally, FDM is a thermal process; therefore materials thermal behaviour plays an important role in optimizing the performance of the printed parts. The objective of this study is to evaluate the thermal behaviour of PLA, ABS, nylon and WF-PLA filaments before manufacturing the AFO components using the FDM method. In the study, the sequence of testing materials provides a basic measuring method to investigate AFO device parts thermal stability. Thermal analysis (TG/DTG and DSC) was carried out before 3D printing is to characterize the thermal stability of each material.

Moreover, energy levels in these deposits are low and need to be elevated by introducing efficient operative conversion technologies to utilize these residues as fuels. In this context, the utilization of a fluidized bed innovation enables a wide range of non-uniform-sized low-grade fuels to be effectively converted into other forms of energy.This study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of fluidized conversion method for transformation of agricultural by-products such as rice husk, sawdust, and groundnut shells into useful energy. The present investigation was conducted to know the mixing characteristics of sand and fuel have been found by conducting experiments with mixing ratio of rice husk (1:13), saw dust(1:5) and groundnut shells (1:12), the variation of particle movement in the bed and mixing characteristics are analyzed. The impact of sand molecule size on the fluidization speed of two biofuel and sand components is studied and recommended for groundnut shells using a sand molecule of 0.6 mm size and for rice husk, sawdust 0.4 mm sand particle size. Also, establish that the particle size of sand has a significant effect on mingling features in case of sawdust. In the next part of the investigation, the CFD simulations of the fluidized bed are done to investigate the mixing behavior of sand and biomass particles. A set of simulations are conducted by ANSYS FLUENT16; the state of the bed is the same as that of the test. The findings were presented with the volume fraction of sand and biomass particles in the form of contour plots.

Abstract:
In the modern-day society, there are an increasing number of explosions, either by accidental explosions or by terrorist attacks on civilian and military infrastructure. In view of the increased threat to infrastructure and lives of people from explosions, there is an urgent need to precisely predict the blast loads resulting from detonation of high explosives, accurately assess the structural responses to blast loads and develop effective blast mitigation technologies and materials which require extensive field testing. One of the most effective methods for protection against blast waves is the use of fluid-filled cellular material as a protective cover on the structure that needs to be systematically evaluated by field testing and numerical simulations. Since blast experiments on real life structures are costly and time consuming, numerical simulation can be used as an alternative to the field experiments, provided they are validated with relevant experimental data. The main goals of this research are: 1. Field experimental investigation of the response of clamped mild steel plates to close range spherical air blast loads and examination of the effect of standoff distance on the structural response. 2. Development of numerical models for predicting the response of structures to close range air blast loads and validation of the numerical models using the field experimental data. 3. To demonstrate and assess the potential of blast mitigation technology using fluid-filled cellular polymer foam. In order to achieve the first objective, a series of close-range blast experiments on mild-steel plates have been conducted at different scaled distances by varying the standoff distance and the mass of explosive charge. The plates deformed into conical or spherical-dome shapes, depending on the severity of blast wave and the permanent deformation profiles and the midpoint deflections of the plates were measured after each blast event. The air-blast pressure and the dynamic strains in the plates were also measured in some of the experiments. Towards achieving the second objective, fluid-structure coupled numerical models for the field air blast experiments are developed using the commercial finite element hydrocode LS-DYNA to simulate the detonation of high explosive in air, blast wave interaction with the structure and the plastic deformations of the plate structures. With the physically consistent coupled numerical models and the material constitutive data evolved in the present research, a good agreement between the air-blast experimental data and the numerical predictions has been achieved. Further, a numerical procedure validated with experimental data is proposed to estimate the total impulse imparted to the structure under air blast loads. In addition, an empirical relation is formulated from the field experimental data to predict the midpoint deflections of the plates subjected to close range spherical explosions in air. Additional numerical simulations are performed with ANSYS-AUTODYN and ConWep codes and the results are compared with LS-DYNA ALE simulation results and the field air-blast experimental data to assess their relative performance in predicting the structural response to close-range air blast loads. The third goal is addressed by conducting a series of air blast experiments, on steel plates covered with cellular polymer foam filled with water, at different scaled distances to vary the intensity of blast load. Further, the effect of foam thickness on blast mitigation is investigated by varying the water-filled foam thickness from 50 mm to 100 mm.The blast mitigation is quantified by the reduction in the plate midpoint deflection and the change in the deformation profiles of the plates by comparing the experimental data on plates tested with and without the water-filled foam protection.The experiments indicate that the blast protection offered by water-filled polymer foam depends on the intensity of the blast load and the thickness of the foam protection. It is found from the experimental data that with 50 mm as well as 100 mm thick water-filled foam protection, there is a reduction in plate midpoint deflection up to 49%. It is further observed that with 50 mm thick protective cover, depending on the intensity of the blast load, there is enhancement of damage to the structure in some of the experiments.Numerical simulations of the blast-protection experiments with fluid-filled foam indicate that the momentum transfer from the blast wave to the foam and water is the principal mechanism of blast protective action by fluid (water)-filled foam, that results in energy dissipation as increase in kinetic energy of water present in the foam, work done in expelling the water from the foam and atomization of water into fine droplets, increase in strain energy of the foam and energy expenditure in disintegrating and dispersing the foam.

Abstract:
A metal foam filled microchannel cooling device for polymer-electrolyte-membrane fuel cell (PEFC) and flow batteries was investigated experimentally and numerically in this study. Nickel foam was selected due to its high conductivity, large surface area, low density and low cost. The properties of the nickel foam were determined analytically and experimentally. Experiments were conducted to obtain pressure drop at various Reynolds numbers for metal foams of varying porosities. The experimental data was used to provide inputs for the numerical model. A modeling approach for flow in a metal foam filled channel was validated with the available data. The validated model was then used to analyze the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of the metal foam microchannel. Two different locations of the cooling device with respect to the PEF C stack were investigated. The thermal resistance and pressure drop change with Reynolds number are presented. Significant temperature drop was observed with the metal foam microchannel design. The modeling results can be used to guide the direction of future experiments.

Abstract:
Wear resistant and low friction solid lubricants offer the design engineer attractive options for extreme environment lubrication, particularly in situations where the use of fluid lubricants are precluded. Past work with wear resistant PTFE nanocomposites made with sub 100nm particles of alumina showed that the nanoparticles decorate the PTFE surface during jet-milling process. Subsequent compression molding of these powders is believed to result in a compartmentalize PTFE composite. It is hypothesized that these reinforcing nanoparticles arrest crack propagation, although there is qualitative evidence that they weaken strength of the composite. The hypothesis for this investigation was to use small particles of PEEK as the filler, which can act to compartmentalize damage and form a structural filler network that would not require matrix/filler strength for mechanical integrity. The tribological properties of composite samples ranging from 0–100 weight percent PEEK filled PTFE were evaluated in this study.

Abstract:
The linear stability of the Rayleigh-Benard situation in a viscoelastic fluid occupying a high-porosity medium is investigated. The viscoelastic correction to Brinkman momentum equation is effected by considering the modified form of Jeffrey constitutive equation. Further, the non-classical Maxwell-Cattaneo heat flux has been used in place of the classical Fourier heat flux law. The results of the study reveal that the non-classical theory predicts finite speeds of heat propagation. The eigen value is obtained for free-free, isothermal boundary combinations and it has been observed that the critical Rayleigh number is less than the corresponding value of the problem governed by the classical Fourier law. The study finds application in progressive solidification of polymeric melts and solutions, and also in the manufacture of composite materials.

Abstract:
For the last decade, many researchers have been working to develop self-healing materials, and have obtained good results in the field of polymers, these components with microencapsulated healing agent have exhibited noticeable mechanical performance and regenerative property The research described in this paper applies the concept of self healing to simulate self healing polymer matrix composites, with the aid of models developed by the authors for the manufacturing processes and self-healing behavior. The development of self-healing is a novel idea that has not been totally explored in great detail yet. The concept of self-healing described in this paper consists of simulation of a healing agent dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) inside of a microvascular network within a polymer matrix coating with catalyst forming a self-healing composite (SHC). When this SHC is damaged or cracked, the healing agent by capillary action will flow inside of the microvascular network; when the liquid enter in contact with the catalyst will form a polymer structure and sealing the crack. The study consists of theoretical analysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics of a self-healing polymer. The objective of the study reported here was to find the influence and efficiency of the microvascular network in healing a polymer matrix. To check this effect a computational model was created to simulate the healing treatment, thus a crack was created on the matrix surface piercing the microvascular network filled with healing agent and the method to simulate healing behavior of the composite allows assessment of the effects of the autonomously repairing repeated damage events.

Abstract:
Work is underway to develop high energy density active materials based upon biological processes. These materials utilize the controlled transport of charge and fluid across a selectively-permeable membrane to achieve bulk deformation in a process referred to in the plant kingdom as nastic movements. The nastic material being developed consists of synthetic membranes containing biological ion pumps, ion channels, and ion exchangers surrounding fluid-filled cavities embedded within a polymer matrix. In this paper the formulation of a biological transport model and its coupling with a hyperelastic finite element model of the polymer matrix is discussed. The transport model includes contributions from ion pumps, ion exchangers, solvent flux, and ion channels. This work will form the basis for a feedback loop in material synthesis efforts. The goal of these studies is to determine the relative importance of the various parameters associated with both the polymer matrix and the biological transport components.

Abstract:
The gas penetration of a long bubble through a viscoelastic fluid in a tube was studied. Experiments were carried out for two Newtonian and five polymeric solutions to investigate the relation between the coating film thickness and rheological properties of the test fluids. The polymeric solutions are viscoelastic fluids having shear-thinning viscosity. A bubble of air was injected into a tube filled with a test fluid to form hydrodynamic coating on a tube wall. The film thickness was evaluated by hydrodynamic fractional coverage m. The fractional coverage was characterized using the capillary number Ca and the Weissenberg number Wi. For viscoelastic fluids, Ca and Wi were evaluated considering the shear-thinning viscosity. Two kinds of representative shear rate were used for the evaluation of Ca and Wi. The dependence of m on Ca in viscoelastic fluids was different from that of the Newtonian case. The film was thinner than that of the Newtonian case at the same Ca when Wi was small, i.e. the viscous property was dominant. The shear-thinning viscosity had a role to make the film thin. On the other hand, the film tended to be thicker than the corresponding Newtonian results at large Wi because of normal stress effect.
