Developing and evaluating a model for Surfactant-Foam Flooding

Many reservoirs are considered unsuitable candidates for Enhanced Oil Recovery. Surfactant-Foam flooding, also referred to as Low-Tension-Gas flooding, could be a solution to enhance the oil recovery in tight, saline or high temperature reservoirs. SF-flooding combines reduction of the oil-water interfacial tension by surfactant, with mobility...

Impact Modelling of Hurricane Sandy on the Rockaways: Relating high-resolution storm characteristics to observed impact with use of Bayesian Belief Networks

Hurricane Sandy (2012), which made landfall in New Jersey on October 29th, made devastating impact on the East Coast of the USA and struck major parts of New York City, including the economic centre of Manhattan. The total damage (in the USA and Caribbean) is in excess of 100 billion US$ with estimates ranging between 78 and 97 billion US$ for...

Hybrid models for hydrological forecasting: Integration of data-driven and conceptual modelling techniques

This book presents the investigation of different architectures of integrating hydrological knowledge and models with data-driven models for the purpose of hydrological flow forecasting. The models resulting from such integration are referred to as hybrid models. The book addresses the following topics: A classification of different hybrid...
