Research paper thumbnail of A COMPARATIVE MORPHOMETRIC STUDY ON HEMISCORPIUS LEPTURUS (SCORPIONIDA : HEMISCORPIIDAE) COLLECTED FROM TWO PARTS OF KHUZESTAN PROVINCE, AHVAZ AND BAGHMALELK, SOUTH WEST OF IRAN

Species of Hemiscorpius lepturus is the main deadliest species responsible for scorpionstings in ... more Species of Hemiscorpius lepturus is the main deadliest species responsible for scorpionstings in Khuzestan province, SW of Iran. Toxins vary according to species and consist of a mixture of proteins and other substances and toxicity depends on time and other factors. This study was carried out in the two regions of Khuzestan province incuding : Ahvaz with a plain area and Baghmalek as a mountainous. The results showed there were some significant betweenH.leptourus collected from two areas from point of morphometric. Therefore, it is concluded there should be at least two sub-species regarding the current specie in this province.

The void space of a rock or soil is described as a network of pores connected by throats. The pores and throats are assigned some idealized geometry and rules are developed to determine the multiphase fluid configurations and transport in these elements. The rules are combined in the network to compute effective transport properties on a mesoscopic scale some tens of pores across. This approach is illustrated by describing a pore-scale model for two-and three-phase flow in media of arbitrary wettability. The appropriate pore-scale physics combined with a geologically representative description of the pore space gives a model that can predict average behavior, such as capillary pressure and relative permeability. This capability is demonstrated by successfully predicting primary drainage and waterflood relative permeabilities for Berea sandstone. The implications of this predictive power for improved characterization of subsurface simulation models are discussed. A simple example field study of waterflooding an oil-wet system near the oil/water contact shows how the assignment of physically-based multiphase flow properties based on pore-scale modeling gives significantly different predictions of oil recovery than using current empirical relative permeability models. Methods to incorporate pore-scale results directly into field-scale simulation are described. In principle, the same approach could be used to describe any type of process for which the behavior is understood at the pore scale.
