Understanding Oil Formation Volume Factor βo is crucial for effective oil field development, impacting well performance analysis, reservoir simulation, and production engineering calculations. Traditionally, βo is determined through costly and time-consuming laboratory tests, prompting the need for accurate mathematical correlations. Existing correlations such as Vasquez-Beggs, Standing-Glaso, and others have been widely used but show varying degrees of accuracy across different operating conditions. In this study, these correlations were evaluated against 95 datasets of experimental βo data for Sudanese crude oils. Statistical analysis revealed that Vasquez-Beggs and Standing- Glaso models performed best, with average absolute errors of 3.4219 and 3.4477, and correlation coefficients of 0.7563 and 0.7213 respectively. Motivated by the limitations of existing correlations, a new ap- proach using Polynomial Neural Networks (PNN) was developed. This model utilized reservoir temperature, gas gravity, gas oil ratio, and API as input parameters, trained on 70% of the dataset and tested on the remaining 30%. The PNN model exhibited superior predictive performance with a relative average absolute error of 2.8607 and a correlation coefficient of 0.9080. This study contributes a robust predictive tool for estimating βo in Sudanese oil fields, offering enhanced accuracy over traditional correlations and facilitating more reliable reservoir management decisions.

Earned Value Management (EVM) is a project management tool primarily used in engineering and project management to assess performance in terms of cost and schedule. Earned Value Management/Scheduling systems (EVM/ES) have been fundamental in project control, providing key metrics that measure deviations between planned and actual performance in terms of time and cost. However, its application as a project control technique is not very common in Mexico. In this article, EVM was applied to the intralogistics improvement of a manufacturing process in the automotive sector located in Aguascalientes, Mexico. The case study concluded in February 2024 and includes the project scope, scheduling charts, physical progress reports, and budgeted versus actual cost reports. The aim of this article is to provide practical evidence on how to apply EVM in manufacturing projects in Mexico. This will enable project professionals to more effectively utilize EVM for schedule and cost control in their manufacturing projects, with a specific emphasis on intralogistics.

Nowadays, logistics activities are growing annually by 4.4%, reaching annual valuations of up to 10 billion dollars. This area is key for manufacturing companies and commerce in general, which is why the central question arises in this area of knowledge about how to approach proposals or improvement actions in a sustainable way. On the other hand, technological tools such as simulation are an important element to evaluate sustainability alternatives and operational strategies due to their flexibility and high scope. This article addresses a systematic literature review about the use of system dynamics within the management of current supply chains, covering 144 articles in databases such as Scopus and ScienceDirect, for the period between 2000 and 2022 to generate an overview for new sustainability proposals in México.

This study details the optimal characteristics of these systems to design an ideal pumping solution that maximizes agricultural productivity while reducing costs and ecological footprint. The designed system is an off-grid solar pump control device equipped with an MPPT controller for 24V DC photovoltaic panels operating within a 30-48V range. This system operates directly under solar irradiation, eliminating the need for energy storage. A major innovation of this system is its ability to regulate the filling of the water tank based on the measured water flow. When sensors detect low flow, the system automatically activates the water tank recharge and stops its activity when the flow reaches a predetermined threshold, thus optimizing the efficiency of water use for irrigation. The advanced architecture of the system integrates controllers capable of compensating for solar power fluctuations and intelligent sensors to automate the pumping process according to crop water needs. This systemic approach offers a robust and sustainable method to improve water management in agricultural operations, contributing to sustainable development goals and resilience to climate change.

This paper analyses vibration of uniform flexible simply supported rectangular isotropic beam under large deformation with uniformly distributed mass elements. The method of equivalent pseudolinear systems was employed. The deformation of the beam was assumed to be large and the beam was also assumed to be inextensible. The expressions for elastic and nonlinear bending moments were determined. The numerical values of horizontal displacements of the movable support, and the equivalent lengths at various depth-to-breadth (aspect) ratios were determined. The corresponding equivalent pseudolinear systems for various nonlinear bending moment diagrams at various aspect ratios were determined. Consequently the concentrated loads yielding the equivalent pseudolinear systems were converted to point masses using the gravitational acceleration; and subsequently a unit load system was applied successively and independently at each mass point. The Vereshchagin’s method was applied to determine the displacements for canonical equations of motion. Non-trivial solution of the canonical equations at each aspect ratio was sought for the desired eigenvalues. The first mode frequencies at aspect ratios, β = 1.00 and β = 1.25 are complex eigenvalues. Also the natural frequencies exhibit hard-spring type with aspect ratios; and the fundamental frequencies for all the aspect ratios are at seventh mode. Conclusively, the dynamic stability of the flexible rectangular beam of 0.25m-breadth and 15m-undeformed length is not guaranteed when the aspect ratio is less than or equal to 1.25. It is also concluded that deepness of the flexible rectangular beam loaded with uniformly distributed mass elements influences the vibratory characteristics.

This paper investigates the heat transfer of multi-layer coated tools. An analogous coating layer technique is used to compare multi-layered coated tools to mono-layer coating tools and develop a heat transfer model for mono-layered coating tools. The equivalent heat capacity, density, and thermal conductivity of the coating are determined based on the geometric size, initial conditions, and boundary conditions, given the tool rake face temperature. The heat transfer efficiency of the multilayer coating is significantly influenced by the coating layers, the thickness of the layer, and the coating material. The results show that the equivalent coating layer approach is suitable for calculating coating temperature enhancement in the cutting heat transfer. The calculation of cutting temperatures for multilayer-coated tools was conducted and subsequently compared to experimental findings, revealing an error margin of around 10%. The findings of this study indicate that analytical models are also suitable for modelling cutting temperatures in multi- layer coating designs.

Community detection is the identification of different communities or groups that exist within a network. This is useful in social network analysis (SNA) or what is great is performing whole network analysis (WNA), where humans interact with others as part of their various communities, but these approaches are not limited to the study of humans. These methods are to investigate any type of node that interacts closely with other nodes, whether those nodes are animals, hashtags, websites, or any other type of node in the network. In this work, we zoom in on communities that exist in a network. Community detection is a clear, concise, and appropriate name for what we are doing. Communities in the network would be worth exploring and understanding for further purposes. There are several methods and different approaches to detect community, but in this paper, I use two efficient methods to detect whole network which are named Louvain Method (LM) and Girvan-Newman Method (GNM). With LM, we can build a fast algorithm that is effective at community detection in massive networks and optimize the algorithm for better results. Using the GNM, a better approach that can identify the least number of edges that could be cut would result in a split network. We could do this by making an algorithm looking for the edges that the greatest number of shortest paths pass through.

Carbon nanotubes and fullerenes offer exceptional mechanical and electrical qualities due to their cylindrical and hollow spherical molecular structures. Their extensive range of applications, which includes field emission displays, impregnated metal composites, battery storage media, and nanoelectronics devices, demonstrates their exceptional adaptability. The combination of simple materials, variable behavior, and simplicity of manufacture makes these materials a focal point of contemporary research. Due to the low bias transmission at a few nanometers, they have a wide range of applications in electronic devices, and finding their potential applications is a complicated process. Due to the fact that the valance and conduction bands are symmetric, they have a straight band gap and can be exploited for optical emission. Three processes, including arc discharge, laser ablation, and chemical vapor deposition, can be used to generate carbon nanotubes (CNTs), although chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is the most used method since it yields CNTs that are more than 98% pure. Multiple chirality of 100% pure MWCNTs results in enhanced optical properties and improved use as a light harvesting material. Using CNT composites and functionalized nanotubes, the dye-sensitized solar cells are constructed. In this brief review, the synthesis of CNT and its application in solar cells are discussed.

Due to the fact that the valance and conduction bands are symmetric, they have a straight band gap and can be exploited for optical emission. Three processes, including arc discharge, laser ablation, and chemical vapor deposition, can be used to generate carbon nanotubes (CNTs), although chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is the most used method since it yields CNTs that are more than 98% pure. Multiple chirality of 100% pure MWCNTs results in enhanced optical properties and improved use as a light harvesting material. Using CNT composites and functionalized nanotubes, the dye-sensitized solar cells are constructed. In this brief review, the synthesis of CNT and its application in solar cells are discussed.","PeriodicalId":255443,"journal":{"name":"Saudi Journal of Engineering and Technology","volume":"15 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139797601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
