Significance of pressure solution structures analysis for fluid flow studies - examples from Struga 1 well (Zechstein Main Dolomite; W Poland) – first results

The abstract studies the role of pressure solution structures i.e. stylolites and solution seams for fluid flow in dolomites from the Polish part of the Zechstein Main Dolomite (Ca2).The internal structure and composition of them may influence petroleum generation and migration

Enhanced Resolution Analysis for Water Molecules in MCM-41 and SBA-15 in Low-Field T2 Relaxometric Spectra

Mesoporous silica materials are the subjects for relaxometric NMR studies in which we obtain information on the properties of molecules in confined geometries. The signal analysis in such investigations is generally carried out with the help of the Inverse Laplace Transform (ILT), which is accompanied by a regularization procedure. The appropriate selection of the regularization method may positively affect the resolution of the spectrum and the essence of the final conclusions. In this work, we examined the MCM-41 and SBA-15 model systems in various saturation states, using L-Curve regularization for relaxation spectra based on our own version of the fast fast ILT implementation. In a single relaxometric spectrum, the water contributions from the internal volume in the pores and between the silica particles were identified, which allowed us to trace the dynamics of the corresponding drying trends during the removal of water from the sample as a function of total water saturation

Determining Effective Length for 40 HM-T Steel by Use of Non-Local Line Method Concept

In the paper, the concept of non-local line method is presented and used for determining the effective length for notched elements. Experimental tests and calculations were performed for 40 HM-T (42CrMo4+QT) steel made specimens of two types, i.e. smooth specimens, and notched specimens with notch radius equal to 0.2 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, and 1 mm. The performed FEM calculations took into account the multi-linear hardening model and cyclic material properties. The concept of the presented non-local line method bases on finding the position of critical plane and determining the effective length, meant as the fracture process zone. During numerical stress gradient simulations, also the weight function was implemented. It was observed that the effective length increases as the load increases
