    A novel method for prediction of parameters of naturally fractured condensate reservoirs using pressure response analysis

    , Article Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering ; Vol. 19, issue , July , 2014 , p. 13-22 ; ISSN: 18755100 Haji Seyedi, S. H ; Jamshidi, S ; Masihi, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Producing from gas condensate reservoirs under dew-point pressure and at constant temperature shows a complex behavior because of existing liquid condensate around the well. Zones with different mobilities generate three zones as a zone away from the well containing only gas, a zone having liquid around the well and finally a zone containing movable oil and gas. Existence of condensate around wellbore reduces gas relative permeability and as a result productivity index of the well will decrease. In fact, this condensate acts like an additional skin and investigating of this behavior can be difficult because of the complex fluid flow processes. Well test analysis in naturally fractured...

    Abstract
    Elevation angle is one of the most significant parameters of land mobile satellite channels, subject to rapid variations in the case of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite systems. In this paper a novel trace-based framework is proposed and analyzed which is capable of predicting elevation angle as a function of time during satellite visibility window. Trace-time based modeling makes the framework practical for real-time evaluation of elevation angle and its alteration incurred by communication links in LEO satellite systems. The proposed method is particularly suitable for development of communication channel models and services in mobile LEO satellite networks where path variability is of...

    The Rate of Fields’ Variations Toward the Distance of Two Horizons in Dilatonic Black Holes and its Relation With Time, Near the Extremality

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Seyedi, Salman (Author) ; Arfaei, Hessamaddin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Among the various types of black holes, dilatonic black holes can be mentioned which are in the center point of view at their extremality. In this study, we pay attention to these answers and their fields and the way they behave variously, especially when the coupling constant α is between 0and1. For doing so, in chapter one we attempt to study one of the simplest answers in General Relativity (Schwarzschild) and some beginning contexts. Then in chapter two, we try another answer (Reissner Nordstrom) which contains non-Extremal and Extremal states. In chapter three we introduce the concept of the higher theories. Chapter four is a hint about hawking radiation. And finally in chapter five, we...

    Abstract
    In this paper, we address aircraft conflict detection on a mid-term horizon. We adopt a probabilistic approach and provide a simple method to estimate the probability of two aircraft getting closer than some minimum predefined distance, based on a commonly adopted Gaussian model of the deviation from their planned trajectories. A key feature of our method is that the probability estimate is accompanied by a deterministic accuracy certificate. This is achieved by adopting a geometric approach to conflict probability estimation and jointly computing a lower and an upper bound on the conflict probability. These bounds can be inspected and refined if the resulting accuracy of the probability...

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Seyedi, Mojtaba (Author) ; Shaygan SaleK, Jalaloddin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this study as representatives of alkenylbenzenes and mono-alkylbenzenes respectively were considered individually and as binary mixtures. It was observed that styrene, and ethyl benzene were inhibitory types of substrates across the tested concentration ranges. Thus, biodegradation kinetic is well described by the Haldane model. Kinetic parameter's assessments from single substrate degradation tests and these parameters were used to predict possibly interaction factors achieved from dual substrate experiments. The achieved outcomes from mixture of experiments revealed that the ratio of depletion for each substrate is affected by the presence of the other. It was also inferred that ethyl...
