Published: November 2020

A new version of the computer program FLASH (Flow-Log Analysis of Single Holes) is presented for the analysis of borehole vertical flow logs to estimate fracture (or layer) transmissivities and far-field hydraulic heads. The program is written in R, an open-source environment. All previous features have been retained and new features incorporated including more rigorous parameter estimation, uncertainty analysis, and improved data import. The program has a dynamic user interface compatible with most operating systems.

US Geological Survey, Office of Groundwater, Branch of Geophysics, 11 Sherman Place, Unit 5015, Storrs, CT 06269, USA.

A new computer program, FLASH (Flow-Log Analysis of Single Holes), is presented for the analysis of borehole vertical flow logs. The code is based on an analytical solution for steady-state multilayer radial flow to a borehole. The code includes options for (1) discrete fractures and (2) multilayer aquifers.

Objectives: To determine whether China's New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NCMS), which aims to provide health insurance to 800 million rural citizens and to correct distortions in rural primary care, and the individual policy attributes have affected the operation and use of village health clinics.

Design: We performed a difference-in-difference analysis using multivariate linear regressions, controlling for clinic and individual attributes as well as village and year effects.

Setting: 100 villages within 25 rural counties across five Chinese provinces in 2004 and 2007.

Pulmonary gas exchange response to exercise- and mannitol-induced bronchoconstriction in mild asthma.

J Appl Physiol (1985)

November 2008

Servei de Pneumologia, Institut del Tórax, Hospital Clínic, Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer, Ciber Enfermedades Respiratorias, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.

Both exercise (EIB) and mannitol challenges were performed in asthmatic patients to assess and compare their pulmonary gas exchange responses for an equivalent degree of bronchoconstriction. In 11 subjects with EIB [27 +/- 4 (SD) yr; forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1)), 86 +/- 8% predicted], ventilation-perfusion (Va/Q) distributions (using multiple inert gas elimination technique) were measured 5, 15, and 45 min after cycling exercise (FEV(1) fall, 35 +/- 12%) and after mannitol (33 +/- 10%), 1 wk apart. Five minutes after EIB, minute ventilation (Ve; by 123 +/- 60%), cardiac output (Qt, by 48 +/- 29%), and oxygen uptake (Vo2; by 54 +/- 25%) increased, whereas arterial Po2 (Pa(O2); by 14 +/- 11 Torr) decreased due to moderate Va/Q imbalance, assessed by increases in dispersions of pulmonary blood flow (log SD(Q); by 0.

Hydraulic head applications of flow logs in the study of heterogeneous aquifers.

January 2002

U.S. Geological Survey, P.O. Box 25046, MS 403, Denver, CO 80225, USA.

Permeability profiles derived from high-resolution flow logs in heterogeneous aquifers provide a limited sample of the most permeable beds or fractures determining the hydraulic properties of those aquifers. This paper demonstrates that flow logs can also be used to infer the large-scale properties of aquifers surrounding boreholes. The analysis is based on the interpretation of the hydraulic head values estimated from the flow log analysis.
