This work aims at identifying and developing standard laboratory testing protocols that can be used to evaluate the performance of deicing chemicals, additives, and mixtures of these used on roadways and other transportation facilities. Several test methods were evaluated for the purpose of...
The problems of properly evaluating the tensile properties of metals are examined. In particular, we estimate the errors introduced by the use of simplified relationships that do not consider the change in specimen volume during the test, and by ordinary regression analysis performed with only one...
INTRODUCTION In determining the merits of a secondary recovery operation, the fraction of the reservoir which is ultimately to be swept by the injected fluid is of major importance. The conformance correlations presented in this paper take into account the effects of areal sweep efficiency...
INTRODUCTION Until 1966 the method of Stiff and Davis(1) for predicting the tendency of oil field water to deposit calcium sulfate was used extensively by Atlantic. Richfield Co. This predictive method correlates well with field observations in brines of low ionic strength or those composed...
