Tajima, Tohoko (2020-07-27)Modeling acid fracturing process is challenging because of the coupled complex effects of flow through porous medium and fracture, chemical reaction in a geostatistic base, wormhole propagation and reservoir heterogeneity. ...
-
Mejia Martinez, Nelson David (2022-08-08)The estimation of Pressure-Volume-Temperature (or PVT) properties is an extremely important aspect of oil and gas exploration and production as the parameters derived from these functions are used for reserve estimations, ...
-
Escobar-Hernandez, Harold Ulises (2022-12-10)The energy sector is an imperative for human needs in an industrial society like the present. It is subject to constant change. Nonetheless, more frequent extreme weather events, extreme temperatures and resource scarcity ...
-
Impact of Confinement on Hydrocarbon Production from Unconventional Reservoirs Using Thermodynamics Zapata Fierro, Diana Carolina (2023-04-19)Unconventional reservoirs have become the main objective for oil and gas investors since the depletion of conventional reservoirs. This study provides a workflow for obtaining accurate estimates of the production performance ...

Leveraging Microfluidics and Electrokinetics to Improve Sample Preparation and Biomarker Detection Yost, Jarad Wilker (2023-03-30)With the advent of global pandemics, the world has developed a demonstrable need for rapid and low-cost testing platforms for diagnostics. Microfluidic diagnostics can meet this demand due to the versatility and scalability ...
-
Gupta, Rachit (2022-11-14)Bacteria are amongst the most resilient living organisms that rapidly and robustly adapt to different types of environments. Their remarkable success in colonizing almost all parts of the planet is aided in part by their ...
-
Kryvenko, Serhii (2023-04-24)Numerical modeling of the hydraulic fracturing process is a complex and highly non-linear problem that requires special treatment of the far-field and the near-wellbore fracture propagation. In this study, I developed an ...
-
Doria, Steven Michael (2023-01-23)Point of care (POC) instruments are a growing class of diagnostic tools designed for use in low resource settings, such as population screening, and rapid testing in traditional healthcare settings. The current state of ...
-
Yost, Jarad Wilker (2020-04-08)Microfluidic PCR is one of the most common and widely used sample preparation techniques. Most heating methods for microfluidic PCR are heated in one of two ways: (1) the reaction is pumped between different boundary-heating ...
-
Islam, Md Nazibul (2023-08-09)The recent outbreak of SARS-COVID-2 virus has emphasized the necessity for low-cost, portable, rapid, and sensitive biomolecule handling and detection systems for effective monitoring and management of pandemics and other ...
-
Gopalakrishnan, Vishaal (2021-07-26)Fmoc groups are base labile functional groups attached to amino acids to reduce undesirable reactions in peptide synthesis. As with ordinary amino acids, Fmoc-protected amino acid dusts are combustible, and exhibit the ...
