Abstract:
Transitional words make any piece of writing flow logically. If properly applied, they give writing cohesion and coherence. The use of proper transitions may be difficult for non-native speakers, particularly for second and foreign language learners. This study examines how frequently students use transitional phrases in their paragraphs. Thirty-six paragraphs written by students of the Department of English-College of Education at Salahaddin University in a writing course serve as the sample of the study. Knowing how frequently transitional words appear in student-written paragraphs is the main goal of the study. Depending on the research goal, the following questions are addressed by this study: How often do students use transitional words? What kinds of transitions do they typically use? The study can help teachers guide their students toward writing more effectively by suggesting appropriate transitions. The study uses quantitative content analysis to determine the frequency of transition words in paragraphs written by first-year students. Using JASP software that recognized and recorded the frequency of transition words, the paragraphs were examined. The outcomes reveal that students employ a range of transitional words, with “and” being the most popular transition. The results imply that students know how crucial transition words are for linking ideas in their writing. To learn more about how transition words and expressions affect the general coherence and clarity of students’ writing, more research is required

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the kinetics of the walk-to-run transition (WRT) and run-to-walk transition (RWT), when accelerating or decelerating across transition speed (a = 0.17 m·s−2). Nine women performed gait transitions on a 50-m-long walkway. Vertical ground reaction forces (GRFs) and the center of pressure (COP) were examined in the range from 3 steps before to 3 steps after transition in order to identify the possible occurrence of a transition process, in order to facilitate the actual realization of transition. The actual transition is realized in one step, during WRT and RWT. This transition step was characterized by an outlying vertical GRF and COP trajectory (deviating from walking and running). Despite this clear discontinuity, a transitional adaptation period (process) appeared in both transitions. In the WRT, transition was prepared and kinetic adaptations were found in the last step before transition. The RWT was pre- and “post”-pared and only completed during the first walking step after transition. Thus, the WRT and RWT are two distinct phenomena, with different kinetics.

Abstract:
Although Eurocentric scholars theorize the world in terms of Western evolutionary progress rather than de-evolutionary retrogression, this paper takes a different perspective. Forced to transition away from their tangible and intangible heritages, from their families and marriages, cultures, societies, polities, and economies in ways that legitimized imperial claims to res nullius (unowned resources) and terra nullius (empty land), some indigenous people wittingly and unwittingly increasingly devolved their heritages to the colonialists that benefited from the African transitions. The point here is that unlike “Bushmen” and those that practiced transhumance, contemporary Africans are forced to transition, to change and to transform away from owning and controlling their tangible and intangible resources, including land, culture, laws, religions, polities, economies, livestock, families, marriages, and so on. Whereas “Bushmen” and transhumance migrated and transitioned while retaining ownership and control over their land, forests, livestock, and so on, contemporary Africans are forced to transition in ways that divorce them from their families, marriages, cultures, religions, polities, and from ownership of their material resources. Because Eurocentric forms of transition put African institutions and resources on the chopping boards, we argue that this kind of transition is cannibalistic. Made to believe that transition is easier to accomplish without the supposed burden of repossessing ownership and control over one’s resources, Africans are witnessed as disinherited and wandering around the world arguably in ways that even precolonial “Bushmen” and transhumance pastoralists would not envy. There is no justice in “transitional justice” that transitions indigenous people from their heritages.

Abstract:
Background Transition to home after hospitalization involves the potential risk of adverse patient events, such as knowledge deficits related to self-care, medication errors, and readmissions. Despite broad organizational efforts to provide better care transitions for patients, there are challenges in implementing interventions that effectively improve care transition outcomes, as evidenced by readmission rates. Collaborative efforts that require health care professionals, patients, and caregivers to work together are necessary to identify gaps associated with transitions of care and generate effective transitional care interventions. Objective This study aims to understand the usefulness of participatory design approaches in identifying the design implications of transition of care interventions in health care settings. Through a series of participatory design workshops, we have brought stakeholders of the health care system together. With a shared understanding of care transition and patient experience, we have provided participants with opportunities to generate possible design implications for care transitions. Methods We selected field observations in clinical settings and participatory design workshops to develop transitional care interventions that serve each hospital’s unique situation and context. Patient journey maps were created and functioned as tools for creating a shared understanding of the discharge process across different stakeholders in the health care environment. The intervention sustainability was also assessed. By applying thematic analysis methods, we analyzed the problem statements and proposed interventions collected from participatory design workshops. The findings showed patterns of major discussion during the workshop. Results On the basis of the workshop results, we formalized the transition of care model—the socioeconomic, active engagement, follow-up, education, discharge readiness tool, and consistency (Integrated Michigan Patient-centered Alliance in Care Transitions transition of care model)—which other organizations can apply to improve patient experiences in care transition. This model highlights the most significant themes that should necessarily be considered to improve the transition of care. Conclusions Our study presents the benefits of the participatory design approach in defining the challenges associated with transitions of care related to patient discharge and generating sustainable interventions to improve care transitions.

Abstract:
There is growing interest in how athletes’ physical activity participation may be impacted when they transition out of competitive sport; however, few studies have examined the process of physical activity transitions in collegiate student-athletes using a qualitative approach. The purpose of our study was to explore student-athletes’ perceptions of, and experiences with, physical activity in the transition out of collegiate sport. Our analysis of transcripts from 13 focus groups conducted with current and former student-athletes (n = 59) suggests that student-athletes experienced a journey from control to liberation as they transitioned into their postcompetitive lives. In this exciting yet challenging transitional journey, participants were faced with navigating newfound autonomy over their physical activity outside of the controlled environment of collegiate sports and were considering the value and meaning of physical activity within a health promoting context. We offer practical recommendations from these findings to support student-athletes in this transition.

Abstract:
Panama’s transition from military dictatorship to civilian government is considered in terms of stages of the democratization process. During the decline of the dictatorship (stage one), four transitions -- two electoral, and two negotiations for an elite settlement -- were attempted but failed. Consequently, Panama did not experience a normal second, transitional stage. Instead Panama’s transition was abrupt and unexpected: civilian government was installed during a U.S. invasion. Challenges and progress in consolidating democracy (the third stage) are assessed with special attention to restoration of civilian governance, democratic habits and values, and demilitarization-- a central priority of the new regime.

Abstract:
Increasing numbers of gender-nonconforming children are socially transitioning—changing pronouns to live as their identified genders. We studied a cohort of gender-nonconforming children ( n = 85) and contacted them again approximately 2 years later. When recontacted, 36 of the children had socially transitioned. We found that stronger cross-sex identification and preferences expressed by gender-nonconforming children at initial testing predicted whether they later socially transitioned. We then compared the gender-nonconforming children with groups of transitioned transgender children ( n = 84) and gender-conforming controls ( n = 85). Children from our longitudinal cohort who would later transition were highly similar to transgender children (children who had already socially transitioned) and to control children of the gender to which they would eventually transition. Gender-nonconforming children who would not go on to transition were different from these groups. These results suggest that (a) social transitions may be predictable from gender identification and preferences and (b) gender identification and preferences may not meaningfully differ before and after social transitions.

Abstract In order to understand transitional spaces I would like to create an in-depth study that includeshow they evolve, reviews their evolution and hierarchy, and analyses their role and importance. There are several types of transition spaces that can be distinguished, in my study I examine more specifically the transitions between the natural and built environment. In my study I wanted to put emphasis on the relationship between man and nature, furthermore the relationship between nature and architecture, this knowledge is necessary to understand these spaces.

This paper aims to review the model of transitional justice applied in Chile as part of a growing critical assessment has been formulating the Inter-American Court of Human Rights in its jurisprudence about the way that the states resolve the issues of truth, justice, reparation of victims and institutional design in processes of democratic transition and democratic consolidation. We will try to show that the conflict is a consequence of the characteristics of gross and systematic violations and political limits imposed transitional processes characteristics. The way this tension is resolved is what sets a model of transitional justice that fulfill or not the international standards on human rights.

La forma en que se resuelve esta tensión es lo que configura un modelo de justicia transicional acorde o no a los estándares internacionales en materia de derechos humanos.

Abstract:
Adolescence is one the most challenging stages for a person with Type 1diabetes. Despite the significant importance of tailoring healthcare services to adolescents? unique needs including their rapid psychosocial growth and development, high quality adolescent healthcare services are not universal in the United States. The current system of health services is ill suited for providing the proper mix of clinical and preventative services to youth. According to the Consensus Statement on Health Care Transition for Young Adults with Special Health Care Needs, ?each year more than half a million children with disabilities and chronic illness transition from adolescence into adulthood?. In response to the need for transition care the National Diabetes Education Program transition-planning checklist was adapted and implemented for use with youth ages 16-22 years in a primary care clinical practice to provide a more structured process in healthcare transition planning for providers and patients. The project took place at Sanford Health children?s diabetes department in Fargo, North Dakota from July 2015 through December 2015. The checklist was used by healthcare providers to introduce the concept of transition and topics important to successful transition in the future. After implementation, use of the tool with qualified patients and evaluation of provider feedback about the checklist was used to improve utility of the evidence-based checklist in practice application for future use. Across six months of implementation, 25% of all eligible youth with Type 1 diabetes seen were presented the transition-planning checklist. The providers agreed the transition-planning checklist incorporated good structure and content. All providers desired to continue to use the checklist in the future to provide transition-planning care to youth with Type 1 diabetes. Providing holistic care for youth with Type 1 diabetes is important for successful transition to adult care services. Implementing a transition ?planning checklist in the children?s diabetes department was found to be helpful and well received despite limited use (25% of eligible patients). Future efforts should be made to extend the project to be more inclusive of all areas needed for successful transition.

TRANSITION is an installation of films that engages the histories of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to the meltdown of Fukushima Daiichi in 2011—it is an attempt to bridge the gap of nuclear issues that are still present today. I redirect found images from their institutional contexts to reposition them as a dialogue between the archival and my own footage. All histories are told through media, and all mediations are remediation of the event. Histories are never fixed, but are constantly reproduced by different groups who are involved. The past and the present must always be interconnected, contesting the importance to understand the fluidity and intersectionality of histories.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Low-dimensional materials are known to undergo phase transitions to differently or- dered states, when cooled to lower temperatures. These phases often show a periodic modulation of the charge density (called a charge density wave – CDW) coupled with a periodic perturbation of the crystal lattice (called a periodic lattice distortion – PLD). Although many experiments have been performed and much has been learnt about CDW phases in low-dimensional materials, the reasons for their existence are still not fully understood yet. Many processes, involving either strong electron–electron or electron–lattice coupling, have been observed which all might play a role in explaining the formation of different phases under different conditions. With the availability of femtosecond lasers it has become possible to study materials under highly nonequilibrium conditions. By suddenly introducing a known amount of energy into the system, the equilibrium state is disturbed and the subsequent relax- ation processes are then observed on timescales of structural and electronic responses. These experiments can deliver valuable information about the complex interactions between the different constituents of condensed matter, which would be inaccessible under equilibrium conditions. We use time resolved electron diffraction to investigate the behaviour of a CDW system perturbed by a short laser pulse. From the observed changes in the diffraction patterns we can directly deduce changes in the lattice structure of our sample. A femtosecond electron diffraction setup was developed at the Laser Research In- stitute in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Short laser pulses produce photo electrons which are accelerated to an energy of 30 keV. Despite space charge broadening effects, elec- tron pulses shorter than 500 fs at sample position can be achieved. Technical details of this system and its characterisation as well as sample preparation techniques and analysis methods are described in detail in this work. Measurements on two members of the quasi-two-dimensional transition metal di- chalcogenides, namely 4Hb-TaSe2 and 1T-TaS2, are shown and discussed. Both show fast (subpicosecond) changes due to the suppression of the PLD and a rapid heating of the lattice. When the induced temperature rise heats the sample above a phase tran- sition temperature, a complete transformation into the new phase was observed. For 4Hb-TaSe2 we found that the recovery to the original state is significantly slower if the PLD was completely suppressed compared to only disturbing it. On 1T-TaS2 we could not only study the suppression of the original phase but also the formation of the higher energetic CDW phase. Long (100 ps) time constants were found for the tran- sition between the two phases. These suggest the presence of an energy barrier which has to be overcome in order to change the CDW phase. Pinning of the CDW by de- fects in the crystal structure result in such an energy barrier and consequently lead to a phase of domain growth which is considerably slower than pure electron or lattice dynamics.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit is bekend dat lae-dimensionele materie fase oorgange ondergaan na anders ge- ori¨enteerde toestande wanneer afgekoel word tot laer temperature. Hierdie fases toon dikwels ’n periodiese modulasie van die elektron digtheid (genoem ’n “charge density wave” – CDW), tesame met ’n periodiese effek op die kristalrooster (genoem ’n “peri- odic lattice distortion” – PLD). Alhoewel baie eksperimente al uitgevoer is en al baie geleer is oor hierdie CDW fase, is die redes vir hul bestaan nog steeds nie ten volle verstaan nie. Baie prosesse, wat of sterk elektron–elektron of elektron–fonon interaksie toon, is al waargeneem en kan ’n rol speel in die verduideliking van die vorming van die verskillende fases onder verskillende omstandighede. Met die beskikbaarheid van femtosekonde lasers is dit nou moontlik om materie onder hoogs nie-ewewig voorwaardes te bestudeer. Deur skielik ’n bekende hoeveel- heid energie in die stelsel in te voer, word die ewewigstaat versteur en word die daar- opvolgende ontspanning prosesse waargeneem op die tydskaal van atomies struktu- rele en elektroniese bewiging. Hierdie eksperimente kan waardevolle inligting lewer oor die komplekse interaksies tussen die verskillende atomiese komponente van ge- kondenseerde materie, wat ontoeganklik sou wees onder ewewig voorwaardes. Ons gebruik elektrondiffraksie met tyd resolusie van onder ’n pikosekonde om die gedrag van ’n CDW stelsel te ondersoek nadat dit versteur is deur ’n kort laser puls. Van die waargenome veranderinge in die diffraksie patrone kan ons direk aflei watse veranderinge die kristalstruktuur van ons monster ondergaan. ’n Femtosekonde elektronendiffraksie opstelling is ontwikkel by die Lasernavors- ingsinstituut in Stellenbosch, Suid-Afrika. Kort laser pulse produseer foto-elektrone wat dan na ’n energie van 30 keV versnel word. Ten spyte van Coulomb afstoting ef- fekte, kan elektron pulse korter as 500 fs by die monster posisie bereik word. Tegniese besonderhede van hierdie opstelling, tegnieke van die voorbereiding van monsters asook analise metodes word volledig in hierdie tesis beskryf. Metings op twee voorbeelde van kwasi-tweedimensionele semi-metale, naamlik 4Hb-TaSe2 en 1T-TaS2, word gewys en bespreek. Beide wys ’n vinnige (subpikosekon- de) verandering as gevolg van die versteuring van die PLD en ’n vinnige verhitting van die kristalrooster. Wanneer die ge¨ınduseerde temperatuur bo die fase oorgang tempe- ratuur styg, is ’n volledige transformasie na die nuwe fase waargeneem. Vir 4Hb-TaSe2 het ons gevind dat die herstelling na die oorspronklike toestand aansienlik stadiger is as die PLD heeltemal viernietig is in vergelyking met as die PLD net versteur is. Met 1T-TaS2 kon ons nie net alleenlik die vernietiging van die oorspronklike fase sien nie, maar ook die vorming van ’n ho¨er energie CDW fase. Lang (100 ps) tydkonstante is gevind vir die oorgang tussen die twee fases. Hierdie dui op die teenwoordigheid van ’n energie-versperring wat eers oorkom moet word om die CDW fase voledig te ver- ander. Vaspenning van die CDW deur defekte in die kristalstruktuur veroorsaak so’n energie versperring en gevolglik lei dit tot ’n fase van groeiende CDW gebiede wat heelwat stadiger as pure elektron of kritalrooster dinamika is.

Abstract:
The reported multiferroic perovskite series Sr1-xAxTi1/2Mn1/2O3 has been the subject of numerous structural studies, without reaching consensus. In the current work, the cubic Pm3 ̅m is confirmed for end member SrTi1/2Mn1/2O3 in the Sr1-xAxTi1/2Mn1/2O3 ( A= Ca, La; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) series. The Pm3 ̅m  I4/mcm  Pbnm structural evolution was observed with increased doping level of Ca. A cubic Pm3 ̅m  rhombohedral R3 ̅c transition occurred when La is substituted instead of Ca. Interesting magnetic behaviours were observed and the major contribution to this was concluded to be the mixed Mn4+/Mn3+ ratio. Ru and Ir have almost identical ionic radii and behave similarly in many ways. Remarkably the structure and properties of SrRuO3 and SrIrO3 are different. The current study revealed that the divalent transition metal doped materials of the type SrR1-xMxO3 (R = Ru, Ir, and M = 3d transition metals) are isostructural. This was achieved by the synthesis of a number of new materials of the type SrIr1-xMxO3. Therefore, these two series are comparatively described in the thesis. The structure and physical properties of the iron doped series SrIr1-xFexO3 are found to be different from those of the divalent doped ones, and this was even true for Ru analogues. Therefore, Fe-doped SrRuO3 and SrIrO3, based on the results of the same level doped materials are presented in a separate chapter. In the final chapter, the impact of Cu2+ doping on the structure and electronic properties of LaCrO3 is described. In order to understand structure property relationships, all the materials structurally characterised have had magnetic and resistivity measurements conducted. Special attention is given to realise the correlations between structure, magnetism, and conductivity.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the construction, implementation and experience of transitional justice at both the state-level in Uganda, and within the Acholi sub-region, the epicenter of the twenty-year war between the Government of Uganda and the Lord’s Resistance Army. It takes 2006 as its starting point, when peace talks began between both sides in Juba, southern Sudan. Conducted against the background of the ICC’s first ever arrest warrants for leading members of the LRA, these talks provided the empirical context for the major theoretical debates that dominated the nascent field of transitional justice. These included normative disagreements about the relationship between peace and justice and the relative merits of international versus indigenous approaches to justice. At Juba, an Agreement on Accountability and Reconciliation was signed and purported to address and resolve these dilemmas. To date however, we know remarkably little about the political and socio-legal dynamics and trajectory of transitional justice in Uganda since Juba. This thesis aims to bridge that gap, providing an in-depth, empirical study based on extensive fieldwork involving 106 semi-structured interviews, 25 focus group discussions and participant observation. Two major dissonances are identified in the promotion, practice and experience of transitional justice in Uganda since 2006. The first highlights the dilemmas surrounding contemporary donor approaches to transitional justice in the absence of a substantive domestic political transition. The interaction of a technocratic and apolitical donor approach with a reactive, procrastinatory and occasionally opportunistic GoU approach, created a stasis which prevented the emergence of a transitional justice policy for Uganda. The second area of dissonance identified was between the ‘local’ as imagined in transitional justice narratives and the local as lived experience in post-conflict Acholiland. Rhetoric around particular ‘Acholi’ approaches to transitional justice, focusing on values of forgiveness and reconciliation, has obscured both the complexity of post-conflict local justice practices and the extent to which these processes and their outcomes were highly contingent on the wider, post-conflict socio-economic context, including poverty, physical and spiritual insecurity, and other quotidian strains. Finally, in its treatment of the northern Ugandan case, this thesis contributes to broader theoretical debates about how transitional justice is constructed and practiced, particularly in contexts where there has been no substantial political transition.

During the year in studio 5, imagine reality, I delves into the issue of integrate forms through the misinterpretation of images. The spaces were created by making use of technologies to transform 2d images to 3d volumes, and were developed to respond to site context and the program requirements, primarily through a series of strategic Boolean operations. It is irrational and accidental, but provides more possibilities for architecture design.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter focuses on the fertility transitions of individual countries. Countries are the entities that make policy decisions and implement family planning programs. Each country has a special set of economic, political, social and cultural conditions that influence fertility trends and related policies. We describe levels and trends in fertility in 97 developing countries between 1950 and 2020. Measures related to successive phases of the transitions are provided, including pre-transitional fertility, the timing of the onset, the pace of fertility decline, the timing of the transition’s end and post-transitional fertility. A special section discusses countries that have experienced a “stall” in their fertility transition. Transition patterns varied widely among developing countries over the past seven decades. Countries such as Singapore, Mauritius, Korea, Taiwan, and China experienced early, rapid, and complete transitions. In contrast, transitions in all but one country (South Africa) in sub-Saharan Africa have been late and slow, and fertility today remains well above replacement. Among the 97 countries examined, only 42 have reached the end of the transition, which is defined as having reached a TFR below 2.5 in 2020. The majority of countries are still in transition, and some have barely started a fertility decline.

Abstract:
In this paper, we give a review of recent transition path search methods for nanoscale phase transition simulation A potential energy surface (PES) characterizes detailed information about phase transitions where the transition path is related to a minimum energy path on the PES. The minimum energy path connects reactant to product via saddle point(s) on the PES. Once the minimum energy path is generated, the activation energy required for transitions can be determined. Using transition state theory, one can estimate the rate constant of the transition. The rate constant is critical to accurately simulate the transition process with sampling algorithms such as kinetic Monte Carlo.

Abstract:
Abstract A framework for evaluation of carbon offsetting strategies is presented depicting the journey of a large independent upstream exploration and production company towards making a first investment in the space. The framework for evaluation included three pillars: foundational and macro research of voluntary carbon markets, corporate intelligence, and project evaluation from a quality and strategic fit approach. Data examined included third party research data, public information from registries and other actors in the voluntary carbon market, and publicly available corporate publications. The information was also put into context against future decarbonization and company values to ultimately arrive at a strategy which was successfully deployed in a first-of-a-kind long-term carbon offset agreement with the Government of Guyana. Key observations made during the process were: 1) nature-based carbon offset projects provide a useful and necessary tool for global decarbonization towards a net-zero 2050 by providing private capital to developing nations, filling a gap from public pledges, while protecting important carbon sinks and ecosystems, 2) for independent E&Ps a strategy to secure offsets from high-quality, geographically-relevant, and large-scale projects appears to be optimal, and 3) demand for credits within the voluntary carbon market are likely to grow and reach around 1 billion tonnes per year by 2030 and potentially greater than 5 billion tonnes per year by 2050, outstripping the supply of high-quality credits. The voluntary carbon market is in its infancy. Excluding European majors, oil and gas companies are in the early stages of participating in the market with limited information published on the topic. This paper will present one approach for entering the market.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Low temperature geothermal resources, including those associated with oil and gas production, are an underutilized source of low carbon energy. The present work investigates coupling of low-temperature geothermal resources with concentrating solar and/or natural gas energy sources to increase the number of locations at which power generation from low temperature geothermal resources would be technically and economically viable. Stand-alone and hybrid geothermal power cycles are simulated using SimTech IPSEpro process modeling software. Design point strategies for a hybrid power cycle that may operate with either a single heat source or two simultaneous heat input sources are considered. Additionally, off-design power plant operation is investigated to consider the impacts of the heat source availability and ambient temperature variations. The off-design analysis utilizes a modeling tool that predicts power plant performance at each time step as a function of topping cycle heat input (from gas or solar), bottoming cycle heat input (from geothermal), and ambient temperature. Addition of a steam topping cycle to an organic Rankine cycle geothermal power plant provides opportunities to increase the efficiency and power output relative to a stand-alone geothermal power plant. Additionally, use of the waste heat from gas turbine power generation in a geothermal bottoming cycle provides opportunities to increase the amount of power generation associated with each unit of carbon dioxide emitted. This paper will describe the hybrid plant configuration evaluated, discuss the predicted power cycle performance, and compare with stand-alone natural gas and geothermal power generation cases. The power cycle investigated is expected to be applicable for use with conventional hydrothermal resources as well as with geologic thermal energy storage applications and/or enhanced geothermal systems. The steam topping cycle could use a concentrated solar heat source for fully renewable hybrid plant configuration. A plant initially constructed with a natural gas topping cycle heat source could be converted to a solar heat source part way though the power cycle operational life to achieve life cycle carbon emission reductions.

Abstract:
Abstract Since signing the legally binding Paris agreement, fighting climate change has been an increasingly important task worldwide. The United Sates (U.S.), being highly industrialized, recognizes to be one of the largest greenhouse gas global emitters and has set a long-term strategy to reach Net-Zero Emissions by 2050. One of the key emerging potential decarbonization pathways is hydrogen (H2), which could be considered as a long-duration energy storage (LDES) option for an electric grid dominated by renewable energy generation. In this work, we conduct a techno-economic analysis to determine least cost solutions for H2 production, considering different scenarios for wind and photovoltaic-sourced renewable electricity supply under a set of given operational constraints. The model used is a mixed integer linear program that minimizes the plant's net present cost (NPC) over a defined project lifetime. We quantify the impact of intermittency by comparing the operational performance of different regions in the U.S. reflected on levelized H2 production costs and required built storage. The renewable electricity production is modeled using 10 years of historical meteorological data for each region on an hourly basis. Moreover, we evaluate the complementarity of solar and wind electricity, the effect of dynamic storage sizing, and the economic dispatch of renewable energy curtailment.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The goal for all oil and gas well sites is to have zero fugitive emissions. This is functionally difficult during flowback and early production operations, however, minimizing and managing fugitive emissions to net-zero is possible with planning and careful production equipment selection. Sand separators are a critical piece of flowback and early production equipment. The process of removing sand at high pressure through blowing vessels down to atmospheric pressure, provides conditions where fugitive emissions can be created. In order to reduce the unnecessary fugitive emissions, horizontal or low angle Desanders have shown better performance over vertical or spherical sand separators as they have a larger sand holding capacity as well as a reliable sand measuring system resulting in fewer cleanouts and unnecessary releases of fugitive emissions (Wasfy et al, SPE-196142-MS 10). Furthermore, simple changes and additions to the rig-up design can be made to allow for all methane emissions to be captured during the process providing options for how to handle greenhouse gases in order to minimize environmental impact. Using a spherical separator as a base measurement, for 1 m3 (264.2 gallons) of sand stopped a vertical geometry would produce 94.3% of the carbon emissions of the spherical vessel while the horizontal desander would produce 34.5% of the carbon emissions of the spherical and a low angle tilt would produce 14.7% of the carbon emissions. Also, through leveraging improved rig-up design with Horizontal and Low-Angle Tilt Desander, all methane resulting from the desanding process can be captured and directed to flare or vapor recovery reducing the equivalent CO2 released into the environment to near zero. With the industry moving to achieve the minimal amount of environmental impact, operators are looking at every aspect of the process to reduce methane emissions, including the flowback process. The implementing of horizontal or Low-Angle Tilt Desanders, the sand measurement system, and the improved rig-up design allows for the elimination of open tanks on location during flowback. Further analysis, design improvements, and technology integration continues in order to achieve the goal of eliminating flaring and to conserve all methane produced by compressing into the pipeline and/or reserving to fuel other completions operations.
