Experimental Analysis of the Effect of Fine Milled Husk of Rice as a Novel Filtration Control Agent for Water Based Drilling Fluid System
Abstract: Drilling operation is a complex process that requires integration of various engineering systems. As the drilling continues, the formation encountered offers challenges to wellbore integrity as pressure increases with depth. The influx of formation fluid is contained by the overbalance provided by weighted drilling fluid column. Another critical function of the mud is to restrict the filtration fluid lost to the formation by forming a suitable mud-cake around the wellbore. …

A Ponder & Sedulousness Of Legion Shale Stabilizing Materials In Aqueous Based Drilling Fluid During The Process Of Borehole Strengthening
Abstract: Drilling fluid used while drilling the layers of shale will have the potential of reacting with water which tends to increase stickiness, induce swelling and promote sloughing of the borehole. This results in the reduction of drilling fluid circulation, increased mud loss, increase in torque and drag, reduction in lubricity. This will ultimately result in the increase of Non-Productive Time (NPT) during drilling which in turn increases Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) …

ABER of Transmit Antenna Selection with Maximal Ratio Combinining-MIMO System over Nakagami-m Fading Channels
Abstract: AbstractThis paper presents the average bit error rate (ABER) of a multiuser, multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) wireless system. Transmit antenna selection at the base station and maximal ratio combining at the receiver is considered for downlink transmission. For coherent and noncoherent modulation schemes, ABER performance of the system is analyzed. The closed form expressions have been derived for ABER considering Nakagami-m fading channels. The effects of fading parameter …

FIXED FUNCTIONAL APPLIANCES- A REVIEW
Abstract: AbstractFunctional orthopaedic treatment seeks to correct malocclusion and harmonize the shape of dental arch and orofacial function. Correcting class II malocclusion is always challenging as it has complex and multifactorial aetiology. Age of patients and appliance selection plays an important role in the overall outcome of the treatment. Stable results in class II patients have been achieved with growth modification using functional appliances. An orthodontist has wide variety of fixed …
