Nanoparticles have gained considerable interest in recent times for oil recovery purposes owing to significant capabilities in wettability alteration of reservoir rocks. Wettability is a key factor controlling displacement efficiency and ultimate recovery of oil. The present study investigates the influence of zirconium (IV) oxide (ZrO2) and nickel (II) oxide (NiO) nanoparticles on the wetting preference of fractured (oil-wet) limestone formations. Wettability was assessed through SEM, AFM and contact angle. The potentials of the nanoparticles to alter oil-wet calcite substrates water wet, was experimentally tested at low nanoparticle concentrations (0.004–0.05 wt%). Quite similar behaviour was observed for both nanoparticles at the same particle concentration; while ZrO2 demonstrated a better efficiency by altering strongly oil-wet (water contact angle θ=152°) calcite substrates into a strongly water-wet (θ=44°) state, NiO changed wettability to an intermediate-wet condition (θ=86°) at 0.05 wt% nanoparticle concentration. We conclude that ZrO2 is very efficient in terms of inducing strong water-wettability; and ZrO2 based nanofluids have a high potential as EOR agents.
Let be a commutative ring with unity and let be a non-zero unitary module. In
this work we present a -small projective module concept as a generalization of small
projective. Also we generalize some properties of small epimorphism to δ-small
epimorphism. We also introduce the notation of δ-small hereditary modules and δ-small
projective covers.

Gangyong Lee, S. Tariq Rizvi, and Cosmin S. Roman studied Dual Rickart modules. The main purpose of this paper is to define strong dual Rickart module. Let M and N be R- modules , M is called N- strong dual Rickart module (or relatively sd-Rickart to N)which is denoted by M it is N-sd- Rickart if for every submodule A of M and every homomorphism fHom (M , N) , f (A) is a direct summand of N. We prove that for an R- module M , if R is M-sd- Rickart , then every cyclic submodule of M is a direct summand . In particular, if M<

A submodule N of an R-module M is said to be approximately pure submodule of an R-module, if for each ideal I of R. The main purpose of this paper is to study the properties of the following concepts: approximately pure essentialsubmodules, approximately pure closedsubmodules and relative approximately pure complement submodules. We prove that: when an R-module M is an approximately purely extending modules and N be Ap-puresubmodulein M, if M has the Ap-pure intersection property then N is Ap purely extending.
Let R be an associative ring with identity and let M be a unitary left R–module. As a generalization of small submodule , we introduce Jacobson–small submodule (briefly J–small submodule ) . We state the main properties of J–small submodules and supplying examples and remarks for this concept . Several properties of these submodules are given . Also we introduce Jacobson–hollow modules ( briefly J–hollow ) . We give a characterization of J–hollow modules and gives conditions under which the direct sum of J–hollow modules is J–hollow . We define J–supplemented modules and some types of modules that are related to J–supplemented modules and int

One of the important axioms of separation is what is called regularity, and the spaces that have this property are not few, and the most important of these spaces are Euclidean spaces. Therefore, limiting this important concept to topology is within a narrow framework, which necessitates the use of generalized open sets to obtain more good characteristics and preserve the properties achieved in general topology. Perhaps the reader will realize through the research that our generalization preserved most of the characteristics, the most important of which is the hereditary property. Two t

The purpose of image fusion is to generate one image by combining information from many source images of the same scene. In this paper, a multi-focus image fusion method is proposed with a hybrid pixel level obtained in the spatial and transform domains. The proposed method is implemented on multi-focus source images in YCbCr color space. As the first step two-level stationary wavelet transform was applied on the Y channel of two source images. The fused Y channel is implemented by using many fusion rule techniques. The Cb and Cr channels of the source images are fused using principal component analysis (PCA).
