Bourgoyne and Young Method (BYM) is one of the most widely used rate of penetration (ROP) prediction methods. Drilling data, in this method, must be taken from uniform-lithology sections (homogeneous formations) to get the maximum prediction accuracy using multiple linear regression analysis. In the presence of heterogeneity, the accuracy of BYM decreases substantially due to complexity in lithology. There are various studies on ROP prediction based on BYM. Since these studies considers uniform lithology only, none of them functions satisfactorily in heterogeneous formations. Implementing a different type of regression model as an alternative to multiple linear regression by modifying BYM to predict ROP in heterogeneous environment for well programming is the main purpose of this study. This is done by introducing several geomechanical parameters to the BYM to estimate a relationship between the rock mechanical properties and the heterogeneity. An offset drilling data is taken from a heterogeneous formation and converted into BYM's functions. The effect of feature selection, data size, and different outlier labeling approaches on ROP prediction accuracy in heterogeneous formations are investigated by applying several predictive techniques: multiple linear regression, support vector regression, and artificial neural networks. The prediction results are compared and examined from a statistical point of view. It is revealed that the BYM could not represent ROP effectively in a heterogeneous environment. As demonstrated for the first time, the ROP prediction accuracy in heterogeneous formations significantly increases when machine learning techniques are used together with additional features comprising heterogeneity.

Direction of arrival estimation algorithm with uniform linear and circular array Caylar, Selcuk; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Dural, Guelbin (2007-01-01) In this paper mutual coupling effects on Modified Neural Multiple Source Tracking Algorithm (MN-MUST) has been studied. MN-MUST algorithm applied to the Uniform Circular Array (UCA) geometry for the first time. The validity of MN-MUST algorithm in the presence of mutual coupling has been proved for both Uniform Linear Array (ULA) and UCA. Simulation results of MN-MUST algorithm are provided for UCA for the first time. The presence of mutual coupling degraded the MN-MUST algorithm performed in the absence of...
Direction finding accuracy of sequential lobing under target amplitude fluctuations Candan, Çağatay (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2015-01-01) Using recently developed statistical target fluctuation models, the accuracy of sequential lobing is analytically studied. The study shows that the sequential lobing method suffers from a significant performance loss, in comparison with the monopulse method, for the Rayleigh fluctuation model. For other fluctuation models, the performance loss gradually decreases as the amplitude spread associated with the fluctuation gets smaller. The present study aims to analytically quantify the mentioned accuracy loss ...
Sequential and parallel preconditioners for Large-scale integral-equation problems Malas, Tahir; Ergül, Özgür Salih; Gürel, Levent (2007-08-31) For efficient solutions of integral-equation methods via the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA), effective preconditioners are required. In this paper we review appropriate preconditioners that have been used for sparse systems and developed specially in the context of MLFMA. First we review the ILU-type preconditioners that are suitable for sequential implementations. We can make these preconditioners robust and efficient for integral-equation methods by making appropriate selections and by employ...
Numerical study on effects of computational domain length on flow field in standing wave thermoacoustic couple MERGEN, SÜHAN; Yıldırım, Ender; TÜRKOĞLU, HAŞMET (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01) For the analysis of thermoacoustic (TA) devices, computational methods are commonly used. In the computational studies found in the literature, the flow domain has been modelled differently by different researchers. A common approach in modelling the flow domain is to truncate the computational domain around the stack, instead of modelling the whole resonator to save computational time. However, where to truncate the domain is not clear. In this study, we have investigated how the simulation results are aff...
Susceptibility indexing method for irrigation water management planning: Applications to K. Menderes river basin, Turkey Pusatli, O. Tolga; Camur, M. Zeki; Yazıcıgil, Hasan (2009-01-01) A susceptibility indexing method was developed based oil vulnerability and quality indices. The contamination Susceptibility index (SI) at a given location was calculated by taking file product Of the Vulnerability index (VI) and the quality index (QI): SI = VI x QI. This method incorporates both hydrogeological and hydrochemical data for a comprehensive index mapping. The DRASTIC index methodology was used for the hydrogeological data evaluations. The quality index calculation procedure based oil a water q...
