Fault location method for multi-section hybrid lines considers velocity uncertainty by Liwei Xie, Youpeng Wang, Yang Xiao, Xiangjun Zeng, Yan Mo, Zhuo Long

“…The initial amplitude ratio coefficient (IARC) K is defined based on propagation characteristic analysis of initial fault traveling wave (IFTW) signals for hybrid lines, and the corresponding identification principle of fault line sections is derived from numerical relationships within different fault points’ K values. Then, taking into account the uncertainties of fault traveling wave (TW) velocity, a fault location method based on the virtual time difference is proposed. …”

A Mathematical Pressure Transient Analysis Model for Multiple Fractured Horizontal Wells in Shale Gas Reservoirs by Yan Zeng, Qing Wang, Zhengfu Ning, Hongliang Sun

“…However, the existing models have neglected the percolation mechanism in nanopores of organic matter and failed to consider the differences among the reservoir properties in different areas. On that account, in this study, a modified apparent permeability model was proposed describing gas flow in shale gas reservoirs by integrating bulk gas flow in nanopores and gas desorption from nanopores. …”

Polar Metric-Weighted Norm-Based Scan Matching for Robot Pose Estimation by Guanglei Huo, Lijun Zhao, Ke Wang, Ruifeng Li, Jianqiang Li

“…In order to obtain better match results and accurate estimation of the robot pose, we introduce a new metric rule, Polar Metric-Weighted Norm (PMWN), which takes both rotation and translation into account to match the reference and current scan. For robot pose estimation, the heading rotation angle is estimated by correspondences establishing results and further corrected by an absolute-value function, and then the geometric property of PMWN called projected circle is used to estimate the robot translation. …”
