Water breaks through along fractures is a major concern in tight sandstone reservoirs with a bottom aquifer.Analytical models fail to handle the three-dimensional two-phase flow problem for partially penetrating inclined fractures, so time-consuming numerical simulation are often used for this problem.This paper presents an efficient semianalytical
Microbial activity in clay barrier materials during radioactive waste disposal can lead to a violation of important physicochemical properties of the barrier system as a whole, thereby reducing the safety of the storage facility.This work evaluates the activity of the microbial complex of five bentonite and two kaolin clays.All clay materials were
Abstract Classification of the Class Echinoidea is under significant revision in light of emerging molecular phylogenetic evidence.In particular, the sister-group relationships within the superorder Luminacea (Echinoidea: Irregularia) have been considerably updated.However, the placement of many families remains largely unresolved due to a series o
Abstract Background Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) cleave ubiquitin on substrate molecules to maintain protein stability.DUBs reportedly participate in the tumorigenesis and tumour progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).OTU deubiquitinase 5 (OTUD5), a DUB family member, has been recognized shibori dot fabric as a critical regulator in bladd
