Production Allocation Optimization of Gas Reservoirs with Edge and Bottom Aquifer Based on a Parallel-Structured Genetic Algorithm.

As gas reservoir pressure decreases, edge and bottom water irregularly flow into the reservoir through storage and permeability spaces. Water influx poses a significant challenge for the development of gas reservoirs, impacting development efficiency and the ultimate recovery rate. Therefore, exploring rational optimization methods for gas well allocation is essential.

Flooding Performance and Optimization of Injection Parameters of Nanosized Oil Displacement Agents in Extra-Low-Permeability Reservoirs.

There have been few studies on the role of nanofluids in oil displacement and injection parameters, despite their significant impact on the oil displacement effect. To enhance oil recovery in an ultralow-permeability reservoir, the nanosized oil-displacement agent with nano-SiO modified by a silane coupling agent as a main component was selected for the first time in the Changqing oilfield. To assess the performance of the nanofluid, various factors such as particle size, contact angle, interfacial tension, and emulsion stability were taken into consideration.

A religious framework as a lens for understanding the intersection of genetics, health, and disease.

The primary goal of this study was to determine the extent to which religious frameworks inform lay public understandings of genes and disease. Contrary to existing research, there were minimal differences between racial groups. We did, however, observe two patterns in that data that are worthy of discussion.

Depiction of gene-environment relationships in online medical recommendations.

Purpose: This study examines the presentation of genetic and behavioral causation and prevention in websites that make medical recommendations to lay people for four diseases: heart disease, diabetes, lung cancer, and depression.

Methods: A sample of 73 online medical recommendations from major health institutions and information portals were retrieved for content analysis, with a focus on the depiction of gene-environment relationships.

Results: The results show a clear preponderance of behavioral causation and recommendations.
