Study on Micro Displacement Mechanism of Hydraulic Fracturing by Oil Displacement Agent at High Pressure by Fengjiao Wang, Xu Wang, Yikun Liu, Qingjun Deng, Jianan Hu, Yingbo Lv

“…This is not only because the residual oil on the pore surface is flushed by high pressure; in addition, the adsorption of an oil displacement agent on the rock surface reduces the liquid-solid interface energy and changes the wettability, thus improving the oil displacement efficiency.…”

Deformation of the Juan de Fuca Plate Beneath the Central Cascadia Continental Margin (44°-45°N) in Response to an Upper Plate Load by Anne M. Tréhu, Kathy Davenport, Christopher B. Kenyon, Suzanne M. Carbotte, John L. Nabelek, Douglas R. Toomey, William S. D. Wilcock

“…A 3D crustal model for the central Cascadia continental shelf and Coast Range between 44°N and 45°N shows that the crystalline crust of the forearc wedge beneath the coastline is characterized by a NW-trending, vertical slab of high-velocity rock interpreted to represent the dike complex that fed the Yachats Basalt, which was intruded into the forearc approximately 37 million years ago. …”

Schnittstellen zwischen performance und Analyse von Popmusik. Performative Produktionsprozesse in Pink Floyds Album Wish You Were Here und Jordan Rudessʼ Coverversion von Genesisʼ... by Hubertus Dreyer, Pascal Horn

“…Both works belong to the prog rock tradition and display a similar level of musical complexity; the way in which these works are complex, however, differs and reflects different production styles: Pink Floydʼs album is the result of a quasi vegetative growth under strong psychological distress, leading to a dense network of musical cross-references throughout the album; Jordan Rudess, on the other hand, proceeds rationally and economically, and the artistic effect of the result owes much to the virtuosity of the musicians.…”
