Bio Solvent EOR: Performance Assessment of Plant Extracts as Asphaltene Inhibitor
Abstract: Changes in pressure and temperature during oil production and transportation most notably during CO2 injection for enhanced recovery could lead to changes in the oil composition and deposition of asphaltene. Deposition of asphaltene near the wellbore region, production tubing and production facilities could cause severe flow assurance problem. Physical removal of asphaltene is costly and in most cases it is not preferred. A more favorable option is to prevent the …

Understanding Land Use-Transport Integration: A Literature Review on Theories and Practices in Urban-Transport Planning
Abstract: For many years, it has been understood and can be generalized from various researches and quantitative modelling that there is a causal relationship between land-use typology and travel demand/behaviour as the former influences the later in urban areas. The idea of land-use transport integration models evolved due to the need felt by the urban planners and managers for quantitatively forecasting future pattern of city and regional development as well as …

Climate Change and Air Pollution Dynamics: Synergistic Effects and Mitigation Strategies
Abstract: Climate change and air pollution are deeply interlinked environmental problems that jointly exacerbate human health, ecosystem integrity, and economic well‑being. As global temperatures rise, shifts in meteorological conditions—such as increased heat, altered precipitation, and more frequent extreme weather events—modify pollutant generation, dispersion, chemical transformation, and removal processes. Meanwhile, many sources of air pollution are also sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs), giving rise to potential co‑benefits or trade‑offs when formulating mitigation …

Flood Resilient Land Use Planning for Gurugram
Abstract: Floods have become a common phenomenon in the fast urbanizing world as a consequence of accumulation of large amount of water in a particular area, either as a result of direct rainfall exceeding the capacity of drainage systems or a spill of enormous amounts of water from water bodies. Urbanization develops densely populous urban areas where the inhabitants suffer as a result of floods due to the reasons mentioned above, …

Towards a Geo-Classification of the Niger Delta for Highway Investment Costing Applications
Abstract: The study carries out a quasi-experimentation, as a basis of devising a spatial quantitative concept, delineating distinct geologic settings which would have differing cost implications for highway infrastructure development in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Three broad conceptual geomorphic boundaries, for the categorisation of Niger Delta soils in engineering geologic costing application, were discerned within this conceptual lens. The study further statistically explores the synthesised geo-zonation for differences in …

An Approach for Travel Pattern Analysis Using HDBSCAN and Apriori Algorithms
Abstract: Most mega-city regions around the world are suffering from an ongoing increase in the number of commuting trips. Understanding commuting patterns is crucial for both public and authority planners. The understanding of travel patterns helps passengers to know about the places and the time where they could get vacant transport and also helps authority planners in laying out a new transport service. The traditional way of understanding travel patterns includes …

Solving Optimization Problems Using the Graphical Method of Linear Programming
Abstract: Linear programming is a mathematical optimization technique used for maximizing or minimizing a linear objective function while satisfying a set of linear constraints. This method plays a crucial role in various industries, including manufacturing, finance, transportation, and supply chain management. Among the different approaches to solving linear programming problems, the graphical method provides a simple and intuitive way to visualize and solve problems involving two decision variables. By plotting constraints …

Mixed use settlements in a metro city: Effects on people & context
Abstract: Mixed-use settlement is a building or a combination of buildings designed to functionally and physically integrate multiple uses such as commercial, institutional, recreational, and other uses along with residential uses. In such spaces, there are more opportunities for pedestrian activities due to the presence of a majority of the daily necessities at near distances. How public spaces are designed plays a significant role in affecting one’s mental state and sense …

A study on Bridging Chemical Transformation and Climate Feedbacks in the Earth System
Abstract: The atmosphere operates as a vast and complex chemical reactor, where minute-scale transformations exert profound influence on planetary-scale climate stability. This research investigates the multi-scale coupling between reactive tropospheric chemistry and large-scale climate feedbacks, challenging traditional modeling approaches that often divorce chemical kinetics from dynamic processes. By integrating high-resolution chemical transport models (CTMs) with comprehensive Earth System Models (ESMs), we map the flow of energy and matter from the molecular …
