Preliminary structural evaluation of an X-Field Onshore in Niger Delta using 3D seismic data

Preliminary structural evaluation of an X-Field Onshore in Niger Delta using 3D seismic data A structural evaluation of a post stack time migrated (PSTM) 3D seismic data over an X–Field in the eastern Niger Delta has been attempted. The objective of the study is to structurally evaluate the field with a view to identifying structural features such as faults, map geologic horizons and analyze reflection characteristics that might be a good lead to probable hydrocarbon accumulations.

DESIGNING AN EQUISPACED LEVEL QUANTUM WELL IN THE ULTRA TIN LAYER OF A SEMI CONDUCTOR ALLOY

ABSTRACT A derivation of equispaced-level conduction band Hamiltonians using the coordinate-transform based procedure is presented. The procedure start with the effective-mass schrodinger equation (Luttinger and Kohn, 1995), where the local conduction-band edge is interpreted as the potential experienced by and electron in a quantum well (QW). The electron effective mass variation is proportional to the potential variation within the a QW, and the well has equispaced bound state. In semicon...

DIGGING A HOLE STRAIGHT DOWN INTO THE EARTH (What will happen)

ABSTRACT: The earth has three layers each consisting solid materials that make them hard and difficult to be penetrated. But, suppose we neglect every other hindrances, where do we expect to go when we dig straight down through the earth passing through all the layers. This paper explains all about what is experienced and the Scientific analysis when/if the earth where to be dug through.

1-D Time Dependent Schrodinger Equation (Simplest derivation) - Alfred Dambe Enu

ABSTRACT: Deriving Schrodinger equation has always been with students. This paper made it easy to students by analysing the steps involve in deriving the equation in the simplest manner. This is the  easiest way to derive, understand and to define the meaning of the equation.

Principles of Friction and Viscosity. By Alfred Dambe Enu

ABSTRACT: Friction and Viscosity are very strong concepts in Physics and Engineering. This paper discusses some basic aspects of these topics and their application in daily natural phenomena.

Bohrs Radius of the Atom

ABSTRACT: Students always ask the question, if there is such a strong electrostatic force of attraction between the nucleus and electrons at the lowest orbital as proposed by Bohr, how then does the electron orbit the nucleus without collapsing into it. This paper answers that question base on Neils Bohr's assumptions. The paper derives the speed of electrons on their orbits with respect to their orbital radius. This paper also explains why electrons at the higher orbital revolves the orbit a...

THE EFFECT OF DENSITY VARIATION ON THE EARTH’S STABILITY OVER SOUTH-WESTERN NIGERIA

This research work is meant to determine the Earth’s stability from gravity anomalies and to provide diverse explanations for a wide range of physical observations and also highlight the factors affecting the stability of the Earth. Information from geodesy (shape of the Earth) and the gravitational field of the Earth studies have been fitted together to produce the complex factors affecting the stability of the Earth. This is obtained by developing a mathematical model of the geoid height ...

Investigation of thermophysical properties of alates (swarmers) termite wing as potential raw material for insulation

Thermo physical properties of Alates (Swarmers) termite wing has been investigated. The result of our investigation shows the values of thermo physical parameters of the sample materials as 0.0403Wm-1K-1 being the mean thermal conductivity value, bulk density of 188. 8kgm-3 and thermal diffusively value being 8.2485 x 10-8m2s-1. The values are within the values for commonly used insulating materials. Comparing the rate of cooling as well as heat absorption into the material as lagging materia...

CONCEPT OF ENERGY GAP IN SUPERCONDUCTORS

ABSTRACT The concept of Superconductors in relation to energy gap was considered in this study. The occurrence of the Meissner effect indicates that superconductivity cannot be understood simply as the idealization of perfect conductivity in classical physics. The major aim of this project is to study the concept of energy gap in super conductors other objectives of this study are to appraise the rate of superconductivity for energy gaps and to appraise the effectiveness of energy ga...

THE NOVELTY OF MEMRISTORS IN TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT

ABSTRACT Typically electronics has been defined in terms of three fundamental elements such as resistors, capacitors and inductors. These three elements are used to define the four fundamental circuit variables which are electric current, voltage, charge and magnetic flux. Resistors are used to relate current to voltage, capacitors to relate voltage to charge, and inductors to relate current to magnetic flux, but there was no element which could relate charge to magnetic flux. To overc...

CONSTRUCTION AND CALIBRATION OF A LINEAR VARIABLE DIFFERENTIAL TRANSFORMER (LVDT)

ABSTRACT A Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) was constructed having a primary winding of 245 turns and two secondary windings of 100 turns each. The devicewas calibrated with a graduated cylindrical rod. The graduated rod wheninserted between the hollow tube which has the windings gave output voltages of±0.046V, ±0.51V, ±0.088V, ±0.155V, ±0.271V and ±0.395V for displacements of±0.00cm, ±2.00cm, ±4.00cm, ±6.00cm, ±8.00cm and 10.00cm respectively. Thedevice when used ...

ASSESSMENT OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS’ ACQUISITION OF SCIENCE PROCESS SKILLS IN PHYSICS IN NSUKKA LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF ENUGU STATE

INTRODUCTION Physics as a science subject in school is different from other non-science subjects in school curriculum in the sense that its lessons take place in laboratories where both students and teachers carry out experiments and practical demonstration. This approach of learning and teaching of physics makes it a practical subject. Practical work is encouraged in science subjects (physics inclusive) because it facilitates the learning and understanding of science concepts, and in develop...
