In this paper, the nonsteady flow of non-Newtonian power-law conducting fluid through a porous medium past an infinite porous plate is investigated. The system is stressed by a constant transverse magnetic field. The velocity outside the boundary layer depends exponentially on time. The rheological effects are shown and discussed on the shear stress in terms of rheological parameter of power-law fluid. The approximate solution in a closed form were obtained by using the Galerkin method. Also the effect of the magnetic field and permeability parameter are discussed.  相似文献   

Hydrogeochemistry and geothermometry of thermal springs from the Guelma region,Algeria

This paper reports the results of our studies, the chemical analysis of thermal spring’s waters and their geological settings, the use of different statistical methods to evaluate the origin of the dissolved constituents of spring waters and the estimation of the reservoir temperature of the associated geothermal fields of the Guelma region, Algeria. A major component in 13 spring water samples was analyzed using various techniques. The waters of the thermal springs at Guelma basin vary in temperature between 20 and 94oC. Q-mode hierarchical cluster analysis suggests three groups. The water springs were classified as low, moderate and high salinity. Mineral saturation indices (SI) calculated from major ions indicate the spring waters are supersaturated with the most of the carbonate minerals, and all of the spring water samples are under-saturated with evaporite minerals. The thermal spring waters have a meteoric origin, and all samples are immature with strong mixing between warm and shallow waters, where the temperatures of reservoirs to which the thermal waters are related ranged between 64° and 124°C. The deep circulation of meteoric waters in the study area is supplied by the high geothermal gradient around 4.5°C per 100 m and reaches a high temperature before rising to the surface. The estimated circulation depths ranged from 1425 and 3542 m.  相似文献   

THE LOOP CHONDRITE: PETROLOGY,MINERAL CHEMISTRY,AND OPAQUE MINERALOGY     

Nabil Z. Boctor  Gunnar Kullerud 《Meteoritics & planetary science》1981,16(1):61-68

The Loop meteorite was found in 1962 in Gaines County, Texas, at a location very close to that where the Ashmore chondrite was found in 1969. The two specimens were assumed to be fragments of the same meteorite. The Loop meteorite is a type L6 chondrite composed of olivine (Fo_75.4Fa_24.6), orthopyroxene (En_77.6Wo_1.5Fs_20.9), clinopyroxene (En_47.5Wo_45.1Fs_7.4), plagioclase (Ab_84.3Or_5.5An_10.2), Fe-Ni metal, troilite, and chromite. Fe-Ni metal is represented by kamacite (5.8-6.4 wt % Ni, 0.88-1.00 wt % Co), taenite (30.0–52.9 wt % Ni, 0.16-0.34 wt % Co), and plessite (16.8–28.5 wt % Ni, 0.38-0.54 wt % Co). Native copper occurs as rare inclusions in Fe-Ni metal. Both chondrules and matrix have similar mineral compositions. The mineral chemistry of the Loop meteorite is quite different from that of the Ashmore, which was classified as an H5 chondrite by Bryan and Kullerud (1975). Therefore, the Ashmore and Loop meteorites are two different chondrites, even though they were recovered from the same geographic location.  相似文献   

Southernmost outcrops of marine lower Tertiary carbonate rocks in NE-Africa (Gebel Abyad,Sudan)     

Dr. Nabil Barazi  Dr. Jochen Kuss 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1987,76(2):529-537

Early Tertiary carbonates (Gebel Abyad Formation) are described from an isolated limestone plateau from the northwestern Sudan. They represent the southernmost outskirts of marine, Tertiary sediments in northeast Africa, which can be connected with transgressive/regressive cycles of the Tethys onto the African craton. Microfacies studies of the carbonates yielded exclusively shallow marine sediments which dried up temporarily, and with changing rates of terrigenous input. They contain a low diverse fauna and flora, poor in individuals. The paleogeographic reconstruction of this isolated occurrence was possible by comparing sediments from southern Egypt.

Zusammenfassung Aus dem nordwestlichen Sudan werden alttertiäre Karbonate (Gebel Abyad Formation) beschrieben, die ein isoliertes Vorkommen darstellen. Diese repräsentieren die südlichsten marinen tertiären Ablagerungen in Nordost-Afrika, die mit transgressiv/regressiven Zyklen der Tethys auf den afrikanischen Kraton in Verbindung gebracht werden können. Die mikrofaziell bearbeiteten Kalke stellen ausschlie\lich flachmarine Ablagerungen dar, mit Anzeichen für zeitweiliges Trockenfallen, und wechselnden Anteilen terrigener Zufuhr. Sie enthalten eine gering-diverse, individuenarme Fauna und Flora. Faziell vergleichbare Ablagerungen in Südägypten lassen eine Rekonstruktion dieses isolierten Kalkvorkommens zu einem paläogeographischen Modell zu.

Résumé Cette note décrit des roches carbonatées d'âge tertiaire inférieur (formation du Jebel Abyad) qui font partie d'un plateau isolé dans le nord-ouest du Soudan. Elles représentent l'extension méridionale maximale de la sédimentation marine tertiaire dans le nord-est de l'Afrique, sédimentation qui peut Être reliée aux cycles de transgressionsrégressions de la Téthys sur le bloc continental africain. L'étude des microfacies amène à les identifier comme des dépÔts marins de faible profondeur, temporairement asséchés et mÊlés d'apports terrigènes en quantité variable. Ils renferment une flore et une faune pauvres en espèces et en individus. La comparaison avec des sédiments du Sud égyptien permet de les intégrer dans un modèle paléogéographique.

Sensitivity analysis of the SWMM Runoff-Transport parameters and the effects of catchment discretisation     

Nabil A. Zaghloul 《Advances in water resources》1983,6(4)

The use of the SWMM model to simulate the Runoff-Transport phenomenon necessitates the proper calibration of the different parameters involved in the process and the effect of these parameters on the routed hydrograph. A detailed sensitivity analysis is conducted on the main parameters of the Runoff-Transport Blocks to establish which are the most sensitive parameters affecting the Runoff-Transport simulation. The result of the study indicates a relative influence of the major parameters used in both the Runoff and Transport Blocks. Hence, the SWMM default values can be used adequately.The costs of setting up and running a SWMM simulation are largely determined by the level of discretisation used for a particular catchment. The purpose of this part of the study is to investigate the level of discretisation needed to adequately represent an urban watershed and to illustrate the effects of reducing the number of subcatchments on the accuracy of runoff simulation. A methodology is defined to achieve a representative equivalent catchment from theoretical considerations. Verification of the procedures involved a series of applications on both hypothetical and real areas.  相似文献

Rhondonite solubility and thermodynamic properties of aqueous MnCl₂ in the system MnOSiO₂HClH₂O     

Nabil Z Boctor 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1985,49(2):565-575

The solubility of rhodonite, represented by the reaction MnSiO₃ (rhodonite) + 2HCl⁰ = MnCl₂⁰ + SiO₂ (quartz) + H₂O, was investigated experimentally in the temperature range 400°–700°C at 1 and 2 kbar by rapid-quench hydrothermal techniques and the Ag-AgCl buffer methods. Variations in the molalities of associated hydrogen chloride (m_HCl⁰) as a function of the molalities of total Mn indicate that Mn in the fluid in equilibrium with the assemblage rhodonite + quartz is predominantly associated as MnCl₂⁰. The Mn:Cl in the fluid ?2, indicating that Mn⁺² is the dominant oxidation state.The solubility data were used to calculate the equilibrium constant of the above reaction as a function of temperature, pressure, and the difference in Gibbs free energy of formation between MnCl₂⁰ and HCl⁰. The equilibrium constants of solubility for Mn minerals for which thermochemical data are available were also calculated. Calculated mineral solubilities were used in conjunction with the data of Frantz et al. (1981) to calculate the composition of supercritical fluids in equilibrium with Mn-bearing phases and assemblages. At 400°C and 1000 bars, supercritical fluids in equilibrium with olivines of compositions similar to those present in MORB tend to be enriched in Mn, despite the low mole fraction of tephroite in the olivine. Supercritical fluids in equilibrium with the assemblage quartz-hematite-rhodonite at 500° and 400°C and 1000 bars show high concentrations of Mn relative to Fe. Manganese concentrations in the fluids increase with decrease in the mole fraction of H, whereas Fe concentrations decrease. The data indicate that H fugacity plays a significant role in the separation of Mn from Fe in chloride-bearing hydrothermal fluids at supercritical temperatures.  相似文献   

Three-Dimensional Back-Analysis of an Instrumented Shallow Tunnel Excavated by a Conventional Method     

Mohamed Nabil Houhou  Fabrice Emeriault  Émilie Vanoudheusden 《Geotechnical and Geological Engineering》2016,34(4):1101-1117

The excavation of a shallow tunnel induces deformations of the soil volume in the vicinity and above the tunnel and consequently on the nearby buildings. The range of these deformations depends among other on the geological conditions, the geometry of the tunnel, and the excavation method. In this context, this research focuses on the 3D numerical modeling of a shallow tunnel instrumented during its construction, located on the Toulouse (France) subway line B for which the excavation has been carried out in a conventional manner in an over consolidated molassic geological context. The objective of this analysis is to estimate the tunnel behavior in terms of vertical and horizontal movements of the surrounding soil and the deformations of the existing buildings. The explicit finite differences numerical code FLAC^3D is used to model the various implementation phases of the work where the fluid–soil interaction is taken into account through an undrained coupled analysis. The results of this 3D model are compared to those of the in situ measurements in order to validate the geotechnical characteristics of the molasses. The latter are a useful basis for the back-analysis of the different monitoring sections implemented in areas where the tunnel excavation is made by TBM with pressurized front.  相似文献   

Diagenesis and reservoir quality analysis in the Lower Cretaceous Qishn sandstones from Masila oilfields in the Sayun–Masila Basin,eastern Yemen     

Nabil M. Al Areeq  Mohamed A. Soliman  Mahmoud A. Essa  Nabeel A. Al‐Azazi 《Geological Journal》2016,51(3):405-420

Lower Cretaceous sandstones of the Qishn Formation have been studied by integrating sedimentological, petrological and petrophysical analyses from wells in the Masila oilfields of eastern Yemen. These analyses were used to define the origin, type of diagenesis and its relation to reservoir quality. The sandstones of the Qishn Formation are predominately quartz arenite to subarkose arenite with sublitharenite and quartz wackes displaying a range of porosities, averaging 22.33%. Permeability is likewise variable with an average of 2844.2 mD. Cementation coupled with compaction had an important effect on porosity destruction after sedimentation and burial. The widespread occurrence of early calcite cement suggests that the sandstones of the Qishn Formation lost significant primary porosity at an early stage of its diagenetic history. In addition to poikilotopic calcite, several different cements including kaolinite, illite, chlorite and minor illite–smectite occur as pore‐filling and pore‐lining cements, which were either accompanied by or followed the development of the early calcite cement. Secondary porosity development occurred due to partial to complete dissolution of early calcite cements and feldspar grains. The new data presented in this paper suggest the reservoir quality of Qishn sandstones is strongly linked to their diagenetic history; hence, the reservoir quality is reduced by clay minerals, calcite and silica cements but is enhanced by the dissolution of the unstable grains, in addition to partial or complete dissolution of calcite cements and unstable grains.
