水泥密度和套管尺寸对油井套管波的影响

通过数值模拟结合实验测量,研究了第一、第二界面胶结良好情况下套管井内的声场,考察了水泥密度、套管直径及其壁厚对套管波幅度的影响,并将部分数值模拟结果与实验结果进行了对比。结果表明,套管波幅度随固井水泥密度增大而减小,低密度水泥和常规密度水泥固井时所得到的套管波幅度相差较大;因此,进行固井质量评价时对不同密度的水泥应采用不同的评价标准。当套管直径不变而壁厚增大时,套管波到时不变而幅度增大;当套管壁厚不变而直径增大时,套管波到时延后而其绝对幅度减小。对油田中常用的三种套管,在大型号套管中所得到的套管波的相对幅度也较大。另外,数值结果中套管波相对幅度随水泥密度的变化规律与实验测量结果基本一致。     

套管中泄漏弯曲型Lamb波的传播特征

低阻抗水泥固井质量检测是油气田生产亟需解决的问题。套管中传播的最低阶泄漏弯曲型Lamb波(以下简称为A0弯曲型Lamb波)对套管后介质尤其是低阻抗水泥的声学参数和胶结状况具有很高的敏感性。通过建立多层介质模型,从理论上计算了其频散和衰减与套管后介质属性及水泥环第Ⅰ界面胶结状况的关系,并数值模拟了有限尺寸定向辐射探头激发和接收的全波波形。结果表明,在套管后耦合慢速水泥时,A0弯曲型Lamb波的频散曲线存在断点,曲线分为两个分支;A0弯曲型Lamb波的衰减在套管后耦合慢速水泥时最大并且对水泥环第Ⅰ界面胶结差时流体环厚度有很高的灵敏度,利用其衰减可以实现对套管后介质类型、水泥环第Ⅰ界面胶结状况及窜槽厚度的有效判别。     

Defect‐density waves and memory effects in modulated systems

We review some recent theoretical and experimental results concerning the memory effects observed in some modulated systems. Thiourea has been extensively investigated and we present new results in this system. The Defect-Density Wave (DDW) where the memory is printed induces lock-in effects in a way similar to Umklapp terms.

New experimental results on the metastability of this extrinsic DDW show a striking similarity to the behaviour of memory effects displayed by the intrinsic disorder of spin-glasses for example. These memory effects have been observed in very different modulated systems but an understanding of their precise origin is still lacking; this is essential for a better understanding of the dynamics of the DDW which plays the role of a staggered field with adjustable wavelength and amplitude: interesting physics should be done with this new physical object.     

套管中模式波的响应特征

在固井质量评价中主要利用套管中模式波的幅度或衰减变化反映水泥的胶结状况,不同测井仪器在套管中激发的模式波的类型不同,研究套管中各模式波的传播特征和影响因素可充分挖掘测量数据的潜在应用价值。CBL和SBT等测井仪器在套管中主要激发拉伸波,类同于平板中的零阶对称Lamb波,水泥环封隔测井仪器的斜入射模式在套管中主要激发套管弯曲波,类同于平板中的零阶反对称Lamb波,垂直入射模式激发套管共振波,类同于平板中的高阶对称Lamb波。该文重点分析了这些模式波的衰减特征及其对微环的响应,套管弯曲波在套后耦合轻质水泥时对微环不敏感,但在套后耦合常规水泥或重水泥时,其衰减明显高于胶结良好的状况;拉伸波对微环的存在最为敏感;套管共振波对微环不敏感。     

The use of ultrasonic guided waves and wavelets analysis in pipe inspection

One of the main applications of guided waves is for pipe inspection, since its one-dimensional geometry allows inspecting long distances in a short time. As with most configurations (frequency, thickness) ultrasonic waves with many modes of propagation are generated, recent research focuses mostly on the generation and reception of specific modes, mainly by means of sophisticated arrays of transducers. In this paper this problem is addressed with a different approach, by processing ultrasonic signals with a low signal/noise ratio acquired with a single transducer in an pulse–echo configuration. In order to improve the evaluation of results, frequency bandpass filters and wavelet analysis were tested. Results showed that even when very noisy signals are utilized, signal processing improve the signal/noise (S/N) ratio up to 12 dB approximately and enhance the analysis of the results, thus demonstrating its usefulness.     

The virial,boundary kinetic-energy density and electron density,in one dimension and in spherical symmetry

The virial is expressed in terms of the actual forces appearing in Schrödinger's equation and a term involving the kinetic-energy density at the boundary, and the derivatives of the electron density on the boundary.     

Nonlinear electron density waves and nonlinear acoustic waves in carbon nanotubes

Problems in nonlinear properties of carbon nanotubes with a strong interaction of electrons are considered if the electron mobility, the Coulomb repulsion of electrons at one site of a carbon nanotube, and variations in the distance between neighboring sites owing to acoustic oscillations are taken into account. The possible occurrence of nonlinear acoustic lattices in carbon nanotubes that are small in diameter is investigated.     

Spin density polarization effects in the presence of Coriolis force on ion acoustic waves in quantum plasma

Ion acoustic solitary waves in a quantum plasma, which is slowly rotating around an axis at an angle θ with the direction of magnetic field, are investigated. Quantum hydrodynamic model is under consideration with the effects of rotations which are included via Coriolis force. Fermions are degenerate and have different spin density states, that is, up and down characterized via parameter α. Linear analysis is performed by applying Fourier transformation to derive dispersion relation. For nonlinear analysis, we apply reductive perturbation method to derive Korteweg de Vries equation (KdV). The effects of variations of Coriolis force, spin polarization, and quantum parameter on characteristics of solitary structure are discussed. These results are applicable to astrophysical and laboratory plasmas.     

Excitonic effects in low density electron-hole plasma in InGaAs/InP quantum wells under magnetic field

The magnetic-field and excitation-density dependencies of the photoluminescence of undoped In_0.53Ga_0.47As/InP single quantum well structures have been investigated. A clear transition from excitonic to free-carrier-like recombination has been observed while changing the electron-hole density from 10¹⁰ to 10¹² cm⁻². Excitonic correlations are found to be well pronounced for carriers at the upper partly occupied Landau levels.     

Charge density waves effects on the phonon modes of 1T-TaS2

The effects of lattice distortion driven charge density waves on the 1T polytype of TaS₂ are reported. The results of a raman study of this transition metal dichalcogenide show features consistent with results previously reported using resistivity and electron diffraction techniques. The possibility of the presence of a phason mode in the raman spectra is suggested and the temperature dependence of this mode is fitted to the expected functional form.     

Pseudogap and charge density waves in two dimensions

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy we demonstrate that a normal-state pseudogap exists above T(N-IC) in one of the most studied two-dimensional charge-density wave (CDW) dichalcogenides 2H-TaSe(2). The initial formation of the incommensurate CDW is confirmed as being driven by a conventional nesting instability, which is marked by a pseudogap. The magnitude, character, and anisotropy of the 2D-CDW pseudogap bear considerable resemblance to those seen in superconducting cuprates.     

Isospin and density waves in asymmetric nuclear matter

The excitation of small density oscillations (zero sound) and isospin oscillations (isospin sound) in cold asymmetric nuclear matter (in the ground state ?⁰_n> ?⁰_p, ?⁰ = ?⁰_n+?⁰_p = 0.17 nucleons/fm³) is investigated within the framework of the Landau theory of normal Fermi liquids. There is only one undamped mode of excitation, which consists predominantly of isospin oscillations, with some admixture of density oscillations. The phase velocity of this undamped wave depends very weakly on the neutron excess and is close to that of a pure isospin wave (isospin sound) in symmetric nuclear matter of the same density. At the neutron excess corresponding to that existing in heavy nuclei the amplitude of the density oscillations constitutes about 30 % of the amplitude of the neutron excess density oscillations. Calculation with a suitably parametrized charge dependent quasiparticle interaction in asymmetric nuclear matter shows that for (?⁰_n??⁰_p)/?⁰ > 0.63 both zero sound and isospin sound are strongly damped.     

Phonon effects on spin-charge separation in one dimension

Phonon effects on spin-charge separation in one dimension are investigated through the calculation of one-electron spectral functions in terms of the recently developed cluster perturbation theory together with an optimized phonon approach. It is found that the retardation effect due to the finiteness of phonon frequency suppresses the spin-charge separation and eventually makes it invisible in the spectral function. By comparing our results with experimental data of TTF-TCNQ, it is observed that the electron-phonon interaction must be taken into account when interpreting the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy data.     

Effect of exchange on charge density waves in layered compounds

The first-order (exchange) correction π₁(q) to the static polarizability of an interacting two-dimensional electron gas is calculated numerically, and is found to be sharply peaked at q=2k_F. An estimate of the magnitude of this correction in metallic layered compounds shows that the exchange enhancement of the polarizability is comparable to the band structure enhancement. Exchange and correlation therefore play an important role in the charge density wave instabilities observed in these compounds.     

Propagation phenomena of wideband guided waves in a bended pipe

Ultrasonic guided waves in pipes have been anticipated as a rapid screening technique for pipe inspection because of their long-range propagation due to low energy leakage. In this paper, the propagation phenomena of guided waves in a bended pipe were investigated using a wideband laser ultrasonic system. The laser ultrasonic system, together with wavelet transformation, is a powerful tool for observing the dispersive phenomena intrinsic to guided waves. Bended stainless steel (SUS304) pipes with 6-mm outer diameter and 1-mm wall thickness were used in the experiments. The bending angles of the pipes were set to 0 degrees (straight pipe), 10 degrees, 30 degrees, 60 degrees and 90 degrees. The radius of the bend was 12.5 mm in all the pipes. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser was employed to generate the guided waves. The generated guided waves were detected with a heterodyne interferometer. The obtained time-domain signals and their wavelet coefficients indicated the following two conclusions: (1) The amplitude of the F(1,1) mode converted from the L(0,1) mode increased with the increase of the bending angle. (2) Mode conversions from the L(0,1) to F(1,1) modes and vice versa were clearly observed in the low-frequency range up to around 200 kHz.     

Asymmetric, helical, and mirror-symmetric traveling waves in pipe flow

New families of three-dimensional nonlinear traveling waves are discovered in pipe flow. In contrast with known waves [H. Faisst and B. Eckhardt, Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 224502 (2003); H. Wedin and R. R. Kerswell, J. Fluid Mech. 508, 333 (2004), they possess no discrete rotational symmetry and exist at a significantly lower Reynolds numbers (Re). First to appear is a mirror-symmetric traveling wave which is born in a saddle node bifurcation at Re=773. As Re increases, "asymmetric" modes arise through a symmetry-breaking bifurcation. These look to be a minimal coherent unit consisting of one slow streak sandwiched between two fast streaks located preferentially to one side of the pipe. Helical and nonhelical rotating waves are also found, emphasizing the richness of phase space even at these very low Reynolds numbers.     

The generation of wind waves on clean water and in the presence of an oil film

The conditions of the resonant excitation of waves on a liquid surface by a horizontal air flow that has a decreasing velocity in the direction of motion were established, such that steady waves occurred when the period of the escape of a chain of eddies that is generated in a viscous layer of an air flow coincided with the period of natural oscillations, which is determined by the dispersion relationship for a group of waves. The dependence of the lengths of steady waves on the air-flow velocity over the surface of clean water and water with a light oil film was obtained. The resulting model was tested experimentally.
