Influence Of Diagenetic Features On Petrophysical Properties Of Fine-Grained Rocks Of Oligocene Strata In The Lower Indus Basin, Pakistan, Abdul Majeed Shar, Aftab Ahmed Mahesar, Ghazanfer Raza Abbasi, Asad Ali Narejo, Asghar Ali Alias Daahar Hakro

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Nari Formation is considered as one of the most important oil and gas exploration targets. These fine-grained tight sandstone reservoirs face enormous challenges due to their extremely low matrix porosity and permeability. Hence, in this regard, the study was carried out to collect the high-quality data on petrophysical properties along with mineralogy and microstructural characteristics and diagenesis. The experiments performed includes the petrographic study and scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analyses. Besides, the measurement of petrophysical properties was carried out to assess the likely influence of the reservoir quality. The petrographic analysis shows predominantly fine- to medium-grained grey samples …


Rgb-D Data-Based Action Recognition: A Review, Muhammad Bilal Shaikh, Douglas Chai Jan 2021

Rgb-D Data-Based Action Recognition: A Review, Muhammad Bilal Shaikh, Douglas Chai

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Classification of human actions is an ongoing research problem in computer vision. This review is aimed to scope current literature on data fusion and action recognition techniques and to identify gaps and future research direction. Success in producing cost-effective and portable vision-based sensors has dramatically increased the number and size of datasets. The increase in the number of action recognition datasets intersects with advances in deep learning architectures and computational support, both of which offer significant research opportunities. Naturally, each action-data modality—such as RGB, depth, skeleton, and infrared (IR)—has distinct characteristics; therefore, it is important to exploit the value of …


Corrosion Behavior And Characteristics Of Passive Films Of Laser Powder Bed Fusion Produced Ti-6al-4v In Dynamic Hank’S Solution, Liang-Yu Chen, Hong-Yue Zhang, Chuanbo Zheng, Hong-Yu Yang, Peng Qin, Cuihua Zhao, Sheng Lu, Shun-Xing Liang, Linjiang Chai, Lai-Chang Zhang Jan 2021

Corrosion Behavior And Characteristics Of Passive Films Of Laser Powder Bed Fusion Produced Ti-6al-4v In Dynamic Hank’S Solution, Liang-Yu Chen, Hong-Yue Zhang, Chuanbo Zheng, Hong-Yu Yang, Peng Qin, Cuihua Zhao, Sheng Lu, Shun-Xing Liang, Linjiang Chai, Lai-Chang Zhang

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

The corrosion behavior of laser powder bed fusion produced (L-PBF-produced) titanium alloys involving flowing body fluid is still unclear. Therefore, this work investigates in vitro corrosion behavior and the characteristics of passive films formed on L-PBF-produced Ti–6Al–4V in both static and dynamic Hank’s solutions. Electrochemical measurements, immersion tests, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy were conducted. In comparison to the L-PBF-produced Ti–6Al–4V in static Hank’s solution, the samples showed lower charge transfer resistance and higher passivation current density (anodic current density as well) in dynamic Hank’s solution. Meanwhile, a more apparent deposition of apatite and hydroxyapatite is found on …
