To address this issue, the analytical performance of three different normalization methods, namely normalization with background, internal normalization and three point smoothing techniques at different parameter settings is studied for quantification of Ag and Zn by Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy(LIBS).The LIBS spectra of five known concentration of silver zinc binary composites have been investigated at various laser irradiances(LIs). Calibration curves for both Ag(I) line(4d^(10)5s^2S_(1/2)→4d^(10)5p^2P_(1/2) at 338.28 nm) and Zn(I) line(4s5s^3S_1→4s4p^3P_2 at 481.053 nm) have been determined at LI of 5.86?×?10^(10)W cm^(-2). Slopes of these calibration curves provide the valuation of matrix effect in the Ag–Zn composites. With careful sample preparation and normalization after smoothing at optimum parameter setting(OPS), the minimization of sample matrix effect has been successfully achieved. A good linearity has been obtained in Ag and Zn calibration curve at OPS when normalized the whole area of spectrum after smoothing and the obtained coefficients of determination values were R^2?=?0.995 and 0.998 closer to 1. The results of matrix effect have been further verified by analysis of plasma parameters. Both plasma parameters showed no change with varying concentration at OPS. However, at high concentration of Ag, the observed significant changes in both plasma parameters at common parameter setting PS-1 and PS-2 were the gesture of matrix effect. In our case, the better analytical results were obtained at smoothing function with optimized parameter setting that indicates it is more efficient than normalization with background and internal normalization method.展开更多

Two cases of solid matrix of porous medium including glass balls and aluminum foam are considered. The governing partial differential equations are simplified by dimensionless variables and similarity transformations, and are solved numerically by using a shooting method with the fourth-fifth-order Runge-Kutta integration technique. It is indicated that the increase of the porosity leads to the enhancement of heat transfer in the surface of the Marangoni boundary layer flow.展开更多

In the existing literature, the matrix is usually assumed to be infinite and the surface/interface effect is considered only at the inhomogeneity-matrix interface. This assumption is indeed valid as the matrix is usually at macroscale rather than nanoscale. However, if the size of the matrix decreases to the nanoscale too, the surface/interface effect will have to be considered at the outer boundary of the matrix. In this paper, the plane deformation of a circular nano-inhomogeneity embedded inside a finite circular matrix (which implies the matrix is also at nanoscale) is investigated. The stress boundary conditions are given at the inhomogeneity-matrix interface and the outer boundary of the matrix by the G-M model. The analytic solution for the stress field is finally obtained through the complex variable method. The results show that the stress field inside the inhomogeneity is still uniform (size-dependent) when the surface/interface effect is considered. In addition, the stress field inside the bulk (including the inhomogeneity and the matrix) can be influenced not only by the size and elastic constant of the inhomogeneity, but also by those of the matrix.展开更多

Two kinds of absorption correction methods are studied especially for medium thick targets (5-10 mg/cm2). For analysis of hair samples, both the measurement of absorption correction coefficients and the determination of sensitivity factors using an addition method are introduced. Quantitative analysis of medial thick samples is established. The relative deviation between different methods for most of the elements is found to be less than 5 %.展开更多

Aiming at the carbonate reservoirs of the Da＇anzhai Formation in the Longgang area of the Sichuan Basin, based on petrophysical experiments and logging response characteristics, we investigated the storage properties of matrix pores and the characteristics of fracture development to establish a method for the characterization of effectiveness of tight reservoirs. Mercury injection and nuclear magnetic resonance （NMR） experiments show that the conventional relationship between porosity and permeability cannot fully reflect the fluid flow behavior in tight matrix pores. Under reservoir conditions, the tight reservoirs still possess certain storage space and permeability, which are controlled by the characteristic structures of the matrix porosity. The degree of fracture development is crucial to the productivity and quality of tight reservoirs. By combining the fracture development similarity of the same type of reservoirs and the fracture development heterogeneity in the same block, a three-level classification method of fracture development was established on the basis of fracture porosity distribution and its cumulative features. According to the actual production data, based on the effectiveness analysis of the matrix pores and fast inversion of fracture parameters from dual laterolog data, we divided the effective reservoirs into three classes： Class I with developed fractures and pores, and high-intermediate productivity; Class II with moderately developed fractures and pores or of fractured type, and intermediate-low productivity; Class III with poorly developed fractures and matrix pores, and extremely low productivity. Accordingly log classification standards were set up. Production data shows that the classification of effective reservoirs is highly consistent with the reservoir productivity level, providing a new approach for the effectiveness evaluation of tight reservoirs.展开更多
