Technical challenges and outlook of underground hydrogen storage in depleted oil and gas reservoirs by Xiaoming LUO, Zihan JIA, Hongyang ZHANG

“…In particular, the technical challenges and coping strategies for UHS in depleted oil and gas reservoirs were overviewed: (1) For the gas leakage caused by unstable displacement, seepage and diffusion, efforts should be made to control the gas injection rate, optimize the scheme of injection-production and cushion gas arrangement, and study the caprock breakthrough pressure, the surface interface characteristics and the flow and mass transfer mechanism. (2) For the hydrogen-consuming geochemical reaction and microbial catalysis, the strata with highly hydrogen-sensitive minerals, ions and microorganisms should be excluded from UHS potential sites to prevent unacceptable H2 consumption. (3) To cope with the integrity failures of traps and artificial materials, the risk of formation damage and gas leakage should be evaluated considering the macroscopic and microscopic deformation and fracture evolution characteristics of the formation. …”

Exergetic analysis of a wooden building envelope in a tropical region by Tiendjou Tiombou Michael Maeschauer, Penlap Landry Hervé, Ngohe-Ekam Paul-salomon, Pemha Elkana

“…This model was numerically solved using the explicit Euler method, enabling the simulation of the indoor and outdoor surface temperature evolution. These temperatures were then used to establish a complete exergy balance, covering four subsystems: the room, the walls, the roof, and the windows, using the annual average temperature as a reference.The results highlight the significant impact of wall configuration (materials, insulation, and environmental conditions) on thermal gradients. …”

On the Question of the Social Origins of Early Cossack Communities: Results, Methodology and Prospects of Research by Marina Ryblova

“…Addressing the complex and controversial problem of domestic Cossack studies – the determination of the stage affiliation of early Slavic Cossack communities – the author sets himself the task of summing up many years of discussions, identifying the most promising directions for further research, and identifying the associated methodological guidelines. Methods and materials. Many studies of the problem of the stage affiliation of early Cossack communities, carried out by pre-revolutionary, Soviet, and modern Russian Cossack researchers, as well as works on male unions and communities of the Slavic, Caucasian, and Turkic worlds, served as materials for the article. …”
