Influence of top water on SAGD steam chamber growth in heavy oil reservoirs: An experimental study

Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is one efficient and mature technology for recovering heavy oil and bitumen resources. The key underlying mechanism is the growth of the steam chamber after injecting steam. However, due to the complex geological environment, the thief zones exist and have a prejudicial effect on the development of the...

Low Leakage and High Forward Current Density Quasi-Vertical GaN Schottky Barrier Diode With Post-Mesa Nitridation

In this brief, a high-performance quasi-vertical GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) on sapphire substrate with post-mesa nitridation process is reported, featuring a low damaged sidewall with extremely low leakage current. The fabricated SBD with a drift layer of 1 μm has achieved a very high ON/OFF current ratio (Iscriptscriptstyle ON...

Data based violated behavior analysis of taxi driver in metropolis in China

Violation probability of taxi drivers in metropolis is far more than that of normal drivers because they are labor-intensive, overconfident of self-driving skill, and always searching potential customers, sometimes even picking up or dropping off passengers randomly. In this paper, four types of violated behavior of taxi drivers in metropolis...
