Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleArsenic, Nickel and Iron Concentration levels in Water Samples from Hand-Dug Wells from Ugbe AkokoO.M. Afolabi, I.R. Ajayi, R.S. Fayose et al.Problem statement: The concentration of Arsenic, Nickel and Iron from twenty water samples from Ugbe Akoko in Ondo state, Nigeria was determined with atomic absorption spectrometer and conductivity meter. Approach: The aims are to determine the level of concentration of the three heavy metals in the well water, the relationship between the WHO reference standard for pure water and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of a Fully Coupled Approach for Evaluation of Wellbore Stability in Hydrocarbon ReservoirsVera RoccaProblem statement: When a well is drilled in a hydrocarbon reservoir, the original thermodynamic conditions are altered, the natural stresses are redistributed and a stress concentration occurs around the hole. The alteration of the original equilibrium can lead to wellbore damage, sometimes to its complete collapse. Loss of time associated with stability problems is estimated to account for 12-15% of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePERCEIVED SOCIAL STIGMATIZATION AND COPING STRATEGIES AS PREDICTORS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AMONG FEMALE PARTNERS OF PRISONERSBada Bukola Victoria, Balogun Shyngle Kolawole, Adejuwon Grace AnuoluwapoThe objective of this study is to examine how coping strategies and perceived social stigmatization predicts the psychological wellbeing of female partners of prisoners in Ibadan, Nigeria. Using the purposive sampling techniques, a total of one hundred and nine (109) female partners of prisoners in Ibadan participated in the study. The ages of the participants ranged between 20 years to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Apr 2014 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUnified Model of Global Wellbeing as Index of Spirituality and Socio-Economic Development: The Islamic Economic ApproachMasudul Alam ChoudhuryThe paper firstly establishes the ontological methodology according to the qu’anic monotheistic law, Tawhid and its unitary relationship in the world-system of ‘everything’. Tawhid as the primal ontological law in the Qur’an is differently poised to Shari’ah as the latter’ sectarian nature that evolved over time. Consequently, the concept of spirituality derived from the Tawhidi law is explained in terms … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2020 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWellbore Surveying While Drilling Based on Kalman FilteringMahmoud ElGizawy, Aboelmagd Noureldin, Jacques Georgy et al.Problem statement: Oil and gas are global fuels obtained primarily from drilling wells in underground terrestrial reservoirs. Vertical drilling is preferred because of its simplicity and therefore low cost, but subsurface targets can often be procured only by directing the wellbore along predefined non-vertical trajectories. For instance, directional drilling must be employed to reach locations inaccessible to the drilling rig, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimal Dark Current Reduction in Quantum Well 9 µm GaAs/AlGaAs Infrared Photodetectors with Improved DetectivityShahram Mohammad Nejad, Saeed Olyaee, Maryam PourmahyabadiIn this research, an optimization approach is presented to decrease the dark current in GaAs/AlGaAs QWIPs. The dark current noise is reduced by increasing Al density in barriers, decreasing detector dimensions and increasing the periodic length of the structure. In addition, increasing the number of periods can reduce both the dark current and responsivity. Therefore, devices can be optimally designed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNew Trajectory Control Directional MWD Accuracy Prediction and Wellbore Positioning MethodAhmed Abd Elaziz Ibrahim, Tagwa Ahmed Musa, Tang FengLin, Yao AiGouThe deviation control is to restrict the drilling direction of the bit from time to time. The drilling direction is of course depending on the direction of the resultant forces acting on the bit. What is the relationship between these directions? Are there any other influential factors? Answers to such questions, different points of view were subjected to analysis. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePalynological Studies of Sediments from North Chioma-3 Well, Niger Delta and its Palaeoenvironmental InterpretationsOlugbenga Ebenezer Ige, Kalyani Datta, Kanak Sahai, Krishna Kumar RawatProblem statement: The Niger Delta Nigeria stands among the world's best-studies delta complexes but its superficial deposits are among the poorest known publicity. In spite of continuous oil prospecting production in the area, there is still a paucity of published information and data on the palynology of the Niger Delta. This study aimed at reconstructing the palaeoenvironments of the Niger … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Aquifer Characteristics in Echi, Delta State, Nigeria Using Well Logging and Pumping Test MethodOchuko AnomohanranThis study was carried out to evaluate the aquifer characteristics of groundwater at Echi, Delta State, Nigeria. This was carried out by conducting electrical resistivity and spontaneous potential loggings in a drilled well at the study location. Pumping test using a one kilowatt pumping machine was carried out in the well. The logs were interpreted while the record of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Pollution Hazards of Shallow Well Water in Abeokuta and Environs, Southwest, NigeriaE. O. Orebiyi, J. A. Awomeso, O. A. Idowu et al.Problem statement: Pollution of well water, either from point or non-point sources, has become a thing of health concern both in urban and rural areas. Approach: This study aim at assessing the pollution hazards of groundwater resource by sampling some shallow wells from urban and peri-urban area of Abeokuta. Collected samples were analyzed for water quality parameters using standard procedures. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,918 accessesView PDFCite
