  1. Analytical and Numerical Modeling of Mechanical Cleaning Device (MCD) for High Angle Wells

    Gaurav, FNUUniversity of Houston2016

    Drilling subs, having helical grooves or blades on their surface, assist in cuttings bed removal by creating turbulence and bringing the cuttings into suspension for removal by the drilling mud. Several of these subs, primarily meant for highly deviated and horizontal wells, are employed in a …

  7. The Relationship Between Laws Regulating Use of Mobile Communication Devices by Young Drivers and Crash Fatalities

    Anderson, Evan D.Temple University. Libraries2015

    The use of mobile communication devices (MCDs) by drivers is a significant public health problem. Research suggests that MCD use plays a role in almost 400,000 traffic crashes each year, resulting in over 3,000 deaths (NHTSA, 2013). Drivers using an MCD are as much as four times more likely to …
