Abstract In this study, an automated multimodal system for detecting, classifying, and dating fruit was developed using a two-stage YOLOv11 pipeline. In the first stage, the YOLOv11 detection model locates individual date fruits in real time by drawing bounding boxes around them. These bounding boxes are subsequently passed to a YOLOv11 classification model, which analyzes cropped images and assigns class labels. An additional counting module automatically tallies the detected fruits, offering a near-instantaneous estimation of quantity. The experimental results suggest high precision and recall for detection, high classification accuracy (across 15 classes), and near-perfect counting in More >

Abstract This study investigates the unsteady flow characteristics of shale oil reservoirs during the depletion development process, with a particular focus on production behavior following fracturing and shut-in stages. Shale reservoirs exhibit distinctive production patterns that differ from traditional oil reservoirs, as their inflow performance does not conform to the classic steady-state relationship. Instead, production is governed by unsteady-state flow behavior, and the combined effects of the wellbore and choke cause the inflow performance curve to evolve dynamically over time. To address these challenges, this study introduces the concept of a “Dynamic IPR curve” and develops… More >

Abstract Field tests have demonstrated that depressurization with controlled sand production is an effective technique for natural gas hydrate extraction. Variations in depositional environments and processes result in significant heterogeneity within subsea natural gas hydrate-bearing sediments. However, the influence of permeability heterogeneity on production performance during depressurization with controlled sand production remains inadequately understood. In this study, a multiphase, multi-component mathematical model is developed to simulate depressurization with controlled sand production in methane hydrate-bearing sediments, incorporating geological conditions representative of unconsolidated argillaceous siltstone hydrate deposits in the Shenhu area of the South China Sea. The effects… More >

Abstract Improving crop productivity and soil fertility through the balanced application of inorganic and organic nutrient sources is a sustainable approach in modern agriculture. Char land soils, widely distributed in riverine Bangladesh, are generally low in organic matter status and deficient in necessary nutrient elements for crop production. Addressing this challenge, the present study was conducted to investigate the effects of various organic nutrient sources with inorganic fertilizers on crop yields, nutrient uptake, and soil fertility in farm (L₁) and char land (L₂) of Brahmaputra River in Mymensingh, Bangladesh from 2022 (Y₁) to 2023 (Y₂). For each location,… More >

Abstract Pressure control in deep shale gas horizontal wells can reduce the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures and improve the estimated ultimate recovery (EUR). In this study, a hydraulic fracture stress sensitivity model is proposed to characterize the effect of pressure drop rate on fracture permeability. Furthermore, a production prediction model is introduced accounting for a non-uniform hydraulic fracture conductivity distribution. The results reveal that increasing the fracture conductivity leads to a rapid daily production increase in the early stages. However, above 0.50 D·cm, a further increase in the fracture conductivity has a limited effect on More >

Abstract Intensive agricultural practices have undeniably reduced soil fertility and crop productivity. Furthermore, alkaline calcareous soils represent a significant challenge for agricultural production, particularly durum wheat, which is vital for ensuring food security. It is therefore essential to explore new cereal management strategies to maintain food production and promote crop sustainability. The application of soil microorganisms, particularly plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), as inoculants to enhance crop production is a growing area of interest. This study investigates the effects of the rhizobacteria Paenibacillus polymyxa SGH1 and SGK2, applied both individually and in combination, on the growth and… More >

Abstract A comprehensive method to evaluate the factors affecting the production capacity of horizontal wells in Carboniferous volcanic rocks after fracturing is investigated. A systematic approach combining gray correlation analysis, hierarchical analysis and fuzzy evaluation is proposed. In particular, first the incidence of reservoir properties and fracturing parameters on production capacity is assessed. These parameters include reservoir base geological parameters (porosity, permeability, oil saturation, waterproof height) as well as engineering parameters (fracture half-length, fracture height, fracture conductivity, fracture distance). Afterwards, a two-by-two comparison judgment matrix of sensitive parameters is constructed by means of hierarchical analysis, and More >

Abstract Adaptive management in arid and semi-arid regions of Patagonia, Argentina, requires a thorough understanding of vegetative dynamics, which can be obtained via rangeland assessment and monitoring. These practices are essential for decision-making to prevent environmental degradation, especially in the light of drought aggravated by climate change. In turn, most methods used to evaluate rangelands focus on data obtained from field measurements and vegetation classifications based on remote sensing data. One of the most frequent problems is that field-based rangeland assessments, based on field measurements, turn out to be expensive because they require high efforts in… More >

Abstract Continental shale oil reservoirs, characterized by numerous bedding planes and micro-nano scale pores, feature significantly higher stress sensitivity compared to other types of reservoirs. However, research on suitable stress sensitivity characterization models is still limited. In this study, three commonly used stress sensitivity models for shale oil reservoirs were considered, and experiments on representative core samples were conducted. By fitting and comparing the data, the “exponential model” was identified as a characterization model that accurately represents stress sensitivity in continental shale oil reservoirs. To validate the accuracy of the model, a two-phase seepage mathematical model More >

Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) exhibits a greater capacity for cadmium (Cd) absorption compared to other cereal crops, leading to elevated daily Cd intake, and posing a significant threat to public health. For the mitigation of Cd stress in sustainable and environmentally friendly way, a pot study was designed by using exogenous application of various biostimulants, i.e., Nigella sativa and Ocimum sanctum extracts: 0%, 10%, and 20% in combination with the chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) using 0 and 5 mg kg under various levels of Cd stress (i.e., 0, 5, 10, and 15 mg kg soil).
