Optimising the transition from CO2 EOR-EGR towards CCS for a mature oil and gas reservoir
Authors: Rakotondrazaka Ilaina H. , Johnson Raymond L. , Li Xiaoling , Bracho Andres 
Published: May 2023

This study evaluates carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery (CO2 EOR) for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), enhanced gas recovery (EGR) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) purposes in the mature Mereenie Oil and Gas Field (‘Mereenie’). Mereenie consists of a rim oil and gas cap reservoir with low aquifer activity. We evaluate the microscopic and macroscopic displacement efficiencies of CO2 EOR techniques after determining the minimum miscibility pressure of the CO2 and reservoir oil system. Investigations on EOR, EGR and CCS are then conducted on a sector model containing the main pay zones. The CO2 flood, water alternating gas (CO2 WAG) and Huff ‘n’ Puff methods are evaluated within three strategies: unstructured well placement, five-spot pattern configuration and gravity-assisted flood. The sector model shows performance of an immiscible process in oil and gas recovery and CO2 storage potential. The CO2 flood is efficient in oil recovery but less efficient in CO2 utilisation, making it a good option for a half oil recovery–half CO2 storage objective. The CO2 Huff ‘n’ Puff is more efficient for oil recovery at early stages of operation, and also very efficient for gas recovery. The CO2 Huff ‘n’ Puff technique is not a good option for the CO2 storage objective. The CO2 WAG could be a good technique for oil recovery and CO2 storage with proper CO2 slug size and WAG ratio. The five-spot pattern configuration enhances sweep efficiency. The gravity-assisted flood strategy can be appropriate for the rim oil reservoir with gas cap in Mereenie.

Abstract
Due to notoriously small value of the neutrino magnetic moment, the phenomena of neutrino spin flavour precession (SFP) require a very high magnetic field. This makes only a handful of systems suitable to study this phenomenon. By the observation of SFP, the Dirac and Majorana nature of neutrinos is expected to be distinguished. In this work, we point out the potential of the white dwarf (WD) system in studying the spin-flavour oscillation of neutrinos. From recent analysis, it has been found that young isolated WDs may harbour very strong internal magnetic field, even without exhibiting any surface magnetic field. The presence of a magnetic field enhances the cooling process and along with that, renders the spin-flavour oscillation of neutrinos emitted in the neutrino cooling process. Employing the standard WD specifications, we analyse whether a magnetized WD is a suitable environment to distinguish between the Dirac and Majorana nature of the neutrino. Higher value of spin flavour transition probability implies reduced active neutrino flux which is possible to be estimated in terrestrial neutrino detectors. We find that for the current upper bound on the neutrino magnetic moment, the spin flavour transition probability of Dirac neutrinos is much higher in comparison to the Majorana neutrino which converts the active neutrino flavours to sterile in a significant amount. We also examine the sensitivity of the spin flavour transition probability to the neutrino magnetic moment.
Anisotropy in colossal piezoelectricity, giant Rashba effect and ultrahigh carrier mobility in Janus structures of quintuple Bi2X3 (X = S, Se) monolayers

Abstract
Due to the asymmetric structures, two-dimensional Janus materials have gained significant attention in research for their intriguing piezoelectric and spintronic properties. In the present work, quintuple Bi2X3 (X = S, Se) monolayers (MLs) have been modified to create stable Janus Bi2X2Y (X ≠ Y = S, Se) MLs that display piezoelectricity in both the planes along with Rashba effect. The out-of-plane piezoelectric constant (d
33) is 41.18 (−173.14) pm V−1, while the in-plane piezoelectric constant (d
22) is 5.23 (6.21) pm V−1 for Janus Bi2S2Se (Bi2Se2S) ML. Including spin–orbit coupling in the Janus MLs results in anisotropic giant Rashba spin splitting (RSS) at the Γ point in the valence band, with RSS proportional to d
33. The Rashba constant along the Γ–K path,

is 3.58 (3.60) eV Å for Janus Bi2S2Se (Bi2Se2S) ML. The MLs exhibit ultrahigh electron mobility (∼5442 cm2V−1s−1) and have electron to hole mobility ratio of more than 2 due to their tiny electron-effective masses. The flexibility of the MLs allows for a signification alteration in its properties, like band gap, piezoelectric coefficient, and Rashba constant, via mechanical (biaxial) strain. For the MLs, band gap and d
33 value are enhanced with compressive strain. The d33 value of Janus Bi2Se2S reaches 4886.51 pm V−1 under compressive strain. The coexistence of anisotropic colossal out-of-plane piezoelectricity, giant RSS, and ultrahigh carrier mobilities in Janus Bi2S2Se and Bi2Se2S MLs showcase their tremendous prospects in nanoelectronic, piezotronics, and spintronics devices.
Study on loose damage monitoring of mortise-tenon joints in traditional wooden structures based on piezoelectric active sensing
Authors: Yang Wenwei , Wang Tongkuai , Meng Huien , Li Weijie 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
In traditional Chinese wooden structural buildings, mortise-tenon joints are used as connection nodes. Under the erosion effects from wind and rain, such nodes are prone to aging and loosening. If they are not tracked and repaired in time, they are likely to cause structural damage when they encounter sudden loads such as earthquakes. In accordance with engineering practice, one mortise-tenon joint specimen with a penetrating straight tenon and one mortise-tenon joint specimen without a penetrating tenon were constructed. Active sensing technology based on piezoelectric ceramics was used to identify the loosening state of tenon and mortise joints. The amplitude of the piezoelectric signal, wavelet packet energy, information entropy, and damage index based on the root mean square deviation were analyzed. It was found that with the increase in loosening damage, the amplitude of the signal gradually decreases, and the information entropy gradually increases. When the damage reaches a certain extent, the changes in the monitoring signal characteristics is limited. The proposed monitoring method can be used to identify the damage state for mortise-tenon joints effectively, and the research results can provide a valuable guideline for the repair of mortise-tenon joints used in traditional wooden structures.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
As is well known, the Sasa-Satsuma equation is an important integrable high order nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In this paper, a two-component generalized Sasa-Satsuma (gSS) equation is investigated. We construct the n-fold Darboux transformation for the two-component gSS equation. Based on the Darboux transformation, we obtain some interesting solutions, such as a breather soliton solution, kink solution, anti-soliton solution and a periodic-like solution.

Abstract
The quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime, formerly known as either type-II ELM or small ELM regime is studied in ASDEX Upgrade. The regime is a natural type-I ELM-free H-mode. The operational space of QCE discharges in ASDEX Upgrade with respect to their separatrix conditions and their power exhaust capabilities are presented. A significant broadening of the power fall-off length is observed, correlating to an increased separatrix density and pressure. Moreover, the possible reactor relevance of this regime is demonstrated by expanding the operational space to low edge safety factor and demonstrating the benign tungsten impurity behaviour. A discharge without any type-I ELM from start to end reaching a partially detached divertor at high normalised energy confinement time is presented.

Abstract
Although there have been many advances in injectable hydrogels as scaffolds for tissue engineering or as payload-containing vehicles, the lack of adequate microporosity for the desired cell behavior, tissue integration, and successful tissue generation remains an important drawback. Herein, we describe an effective porous injectable system that allows in vivo formation of pores through conventional syringe injection at room temperature. This system is based on the differential melting profiles of photocrosslinkable salmon gelatin and physically crosslinked porogens of porcine gelatin (PG), in which PG porogens are solid beads, while salmon methacrylamide gelatin remains liquid during the injection procedure. After injection and photocrosslinking, the porogens were degraded in response to the physiological temperature, enabling the generation of a homogeneous porous structure within the hydrogel. The resultant porogen-containing formulations exhibited controlled gelation kinetics within a broad temperature window (18.5 ± 0.5–28.8 ± 0.8 °C), low viscosity (133 ± 1.4–188 ± 16 cP), low force requirements for injectability (17 ± 0.3–39 ± 1 N), robust mechanical properties after photo-crosslinking (100.9 ± 3.4–332 ± 13.2 kPa), and favorable cytocompatibility (>70% cell viability). Remarkably, in vivo subcutaneous injection demonstrated the suitability of the system with appropriate viscosity and swift crosslinking to generate porous hydrogels. The resulting injected porous constructs showed favorable biocompatibility and facilitated cell infiltration for desirable potential tissue remodeling. Finally, the porogen-containing formulations exhibited favorable handling, easy deposition, and good shape fidelity when used as bioinks in 3D bioprinting technology. This injectable porous system serves as a platform for various biomedical applications, thereby inspiring future advances in cell therapy and tissue engineering.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Zn with a suitable degradation rate is considered to be a promising candidate biodegradable implant materials. To enhance the mechanical properties of pure Zn and broaden its application in the field of short-term orthopedic surgery, a series of new Zn matrix composites with a high strength are developed by the addition of partially unzipped carbon nanotubes (PUCNTs), and the degradation behavior, cytotoxicity and hemolysis of new PUCNTs/Zn composites are investigated in this paper. The results show that the degradation rate of the PUCNTs/Zn composites with 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 wt.% PUCNTs can meet the standard of clinical biomedical orthopedic implant materials. During cytotoxicity test, the density of living cells rapidly increases with increasing PUCNTs content, and the cell viability of MG-63 cells in the extract with different concentrations is higher than 90%, illustrating an excellent cytocompatibility. For the hematotoxicity assay, the hemolysis percentage of all PUCNTs/Zn composites samples is below the safety threshold of 5.0% for clinical application, exhibiting a good blood compatibility.

Abstract
In the Arctic waterbodies are abundant and rapid thaw of permafrost is destabilizing the carbon cycle and changing hydrology. It is particularly important to quantify and accurately scale aquatic carbon emissions in arctic ecosystems. Recently available high-resolution remote sensing datasets capture the physical characteristics of arctic landscapes at unprecedented spatial resolution. We demonstrate how machine learning models can capitalize on these spatial datasets to greatly improve accuracy when scaling waterbody CO2 and CH4 fluxes across the YK Delta of south-west AK. We found that waterbody size and contour were strong predictors for aquatic CO2 emissions, attributing greater than two-thirds of the influence to the scaling model. Small ponds (<0.001 km2) were hotspots of emissions, contributing fluxes several times their relative area, but were less than 5% of the total carbon budget. Small to medium lakes (0.001–0.1 km2) contributed the majority of carbon emissions from waterbodies. Waterbody CH4 emissions were predicted by a combination of wetland landcover and related drivers, as well as watershed hydrology, and waterbody surface reflectance related to chromophoric dissolved organic matter. When compared to our machine learning approach, traditional scaling methods that did not account for relevant landscape characteristics overestimated waterbody CO2 and CH4 emissions by 26%–79% and 8%–53% respectively. This study demonstrates the importance of an integrated terrestrial-aquatic approach to improving estimates and uncertainty when scaling C emissions in the arctic.
Statistically representative estimators of multi-scale surface topography: example of aluminum blasted rough samples

Published: May 2023

AbstractThe topography of a rough surface determines many of its physical properties, for instance, tribology, contact mechanics, optical properties etc. Nowadays, a deep understanding of such physical phenomena requires the knowledge of the topography at appropriate length scales. Apart from performing multi-scale measurements of the surface topography, it also requires the use of proper statistical estimators for the analysis of such topography maps. Moreover, when dealing with light scattering in the visible spectral range, the scale at which the estimators of local topography properties are defined is extremely important. Here we present a multi-scale and statistical study of the surface topography of blasted aluminum samples which all have rather different visual appearance. Various statistical estimators of surface topography are examined, including estimators related to the height distribution, the lateral correlation and local topology. The combination of these various estimators unveils a scale separation between a micro-scale roughness inherited from the initial cold-rolled aluminum surface and a large scale roughness fully controlled by the blasting process. A special emphasis is given to the crucial importance of length scales in the estimation of local slopes. The present analysis establishes a quantitative link between the statistical properties of the surface topography and the blasting process used to fabricate the samples.

Abstract

Objectives
The 2021 Society for Hematopathology and European Association for Haematopathology Workshop addressed the molecular and cytogenetic underpinnings of transformation and transdifferentiation in lymphoid neoplasms.

Methods
Session 4, “Transformations of Follicular Lymphoma,” and session 5, “Transformations of Other B-Cell Lymphomas,” included 45 cases. Gene alteration analysis and expression profiling were performed on cases with submitted formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissue.

Results
The findings from session 4 suggest that “diffuse large B-cell lymphoma/high-grade B-cell lymphoma with rearrangements of MYC and BCL2” is a distinct category arising from the constraints of a preexisting BCL2 translocation. TdT expression in aggressive B-cell lymphomas is associated with MYC rearrangements, immunophenotypic immaturity, and a dismal prognosis but must be differentiated from lymphoblastic ­lymphoma. Cases in session 5 illustrated unusual morphologic and immunophenotypic patterns of transformation. Additionally, the findings support the role of cytogenetic abnormalities—specifically, MYC and NOTCH1 rearrangements—as well as single gene alterations, including TP53, in transformation.

Conclusions
Together, these unique cases and their accompanying molecular and cytogenetic data suggest potential mechanisms for and unusual patterns of transformation in B-cell lymphomas and indicate numerous opportunities for further study.

AbstractObjectivesSessions 8 and 9 of the 2021 Society for Hematopathology and the European Association for Haematopathology Workshop aimed to collect examples of transdifferentiation, lineage infidelity, progression, and transformation in precursor and mature T/natural killer (NK)–cell neoplasms.MethodsTwenty-eight cases were submitted and analyzed, with whole-exome sequencing and genome-wide RNA expression analysis performed in a subset of the cases.ResultsIn session 8, 7 T-lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia cases were received that showed transdifferentiation to clonally related mature myeloid hematopoietic neoplasms, including 6 histiocytic/dendritic cell lineage neoplasms and a mast cell sarcoma. Session 9 included 21 mature T-cell neoplasms that were grouped into 3 themes. The first one addressed phenotypic infidelity in mature T-cell lymphomas (TCLs) and included 8 TCLs expressing aberrant antigens, mimicking classic Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas. The second theme addressed disease progression in TCL and included 5 cutaneous T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders and 2 T-cell large granular lymphocyte proliferations with subsequent progression to systemic TCL. The third theme included 6 patients with TCL with T-follicular helper phenotype, mainly angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, with concurrent/subsequent clonal hematopoiesis or myeloid neoplasms and/or subsequent/concomitant diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.ConclusionsThis cohort of cases allowed us to illustrate, discuss, and review current concepts of transdifferentiation, aberrant antigen expression, and progression in various T/NK-cell neoplasms.
How I Diagnose Rosai-Dorfman Disease
Authors: Ravindran Aishwarya , Rech Karen L 
Published: May 2023

AbstractObjectivesRosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is one of 3 major types of histiocytosis, along with Erdheim-Chester disease and Langerhans cell histiocytosis. While historically, RDD was considered a benign self-limited condition, current data show MAPK/ERK pathway mutations in 30% to 50% of cases, indicative of a clonal process. Rosai-Dorfman disease was incorporated as a histiocytic neoplasm in the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of hematopoietic tumors and the International Consensus Classification.MethodsWe discuss the diagnosis of RDD using 2 illustrative cases, interpretative challenges, and a diagnostic algorithm.ResultsRosai-Dorfman disease involves nodal and extranodal sites, including skin, sinuses, salivary gland, orbit, central nervous system, kidney, and bone. In a subset, RDD can coexist with other neoplasms (lymphomas, other histiocytosis) or autoimmune disease. Morphologically, RDD histiocytes are characterized by enlarged round to oval nuclei, distinct nucleoli, and voluminous cytoplasm with engulfment of inflammatory cells (emperipolesis). By immunohistochemistry, they express CD68, CD163 (majority), S100, OCT2, and cyclin D1. Appropriate use of ancillary studies is important to support the diagnosis of RDD while excluding other histiocytic neoplasms and reactive histiocytic proliferations.ConclusionsManagement of RDD is dependent on the extent of organ involvement and clinical symptoms. In patients who require therapy, next-generation sequencing is recommended to identify MAPK/ERK pathway mutations for targeted therapy.

Abstract
While variation in emphysema severity between patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is well-recognized, clinically applicable definitions of the emphysema-predominant disease (EPD) and non–emphysema-predominant disease (NEPD) subtypes have not been established. To study the clinical relevance of the EPD and NEPD subtypes, we tested the association of these subtypes with prospective decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and mortality among 3,427 subjects with Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) spirometric grade 2–4 COPD at baseline in the Genetic Epidemiology of COPD (COPDGene) Study, an ongoing national multicenter study that started in 2007. NEPD was defined as airflow obstruction with less than 5% computed tomography (CT) quantitative densitometric emphysema at −950 Hounsfield units, and EPD was defined as airflow obstruction with 10% or greater CT emphysema. Mixed-effects models for FEV1 demonstrated larger average annual FEV1 loss in EPD subjects than in NEPD subjects (−10.2 mL/year; P &lt; 0.001), and subtype-specific associations with FEV1 decline were identified. Cox proportional hazards models showed higher risk of mortality among EPD patients versus NEPD patients (hazard ratio = 1.46, 95% confidence interval: 1.34, 1.60; P &lt; 0.001). To determine whether the NEPD/EPD dichotomy is captured by previously described COPDGene subtypes, we used logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to predict NEPD/EPD membership using these previous subtype definitions. The analysis generally showed excellent discrimination, with areas under the ROC curve greater than 0.9. The NEPD and EPD COPD subtypes capture important aspects of COPD heterogeneity and are associated with different rates of disease progression and mortality.
