Modeling of Resistivity and Acoustic Borehole Logging Measurements Using Finite Element Methods

by David Pardo, Pawel J. Matuszyk, Vladimir Puzyrev

Modeling of Resistivity and Acoustic Borehole Logging Measurements Using Finite Element Methods provides a comprehensive review of different resistivity and sonic logging instruments used within the oil industry, along with precise and solid mathematical descriptions of the physical equations and corresponding FE formulations that govern these measurements. Additionally, the book emphasizes the main modeling considerations that one needs to incorporate into the simulations in order to obtain reliable and accurate results. Essentially, the formulations and methods described here can also be applied to simulate on-surface geophysical measurements such as seismic or marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) measurements. Simulation results obtained using FE methods are superior. FE methods employ a mathematical terminology based on FE spaces that facilitate the design of sophisticated formulations and implementations according to the specifics of each problem. This mathematical FE framework provides a highly accurate, robust, and flexible unified environment for the solution of multi-physics problems. Thus, readers will benefit from this resource by learning how to make a variety of logging simulations using a unified FE framework.

About the author

ACERCA DEL AUTOR

David Pardo (Alzira, Valencia, 1980) Desde niño mostró inclinación por el género de terror, predilección que se mantuvo durante su adolescencia y ha perdurado hasta la actualidad. En febrero de 2012 publica Pueblo de Sombras (La Chica del Lago) y logra alcanzar el número 1 de Fantasía, Terror y Ciencia Ficción en Amazon España, siendo una de las novelas del género más descargadas en formato digital durante ese año. En noviembre de 2012, el autor presenta su segundo trabajo independiente: una novela breve de subgénero zombi titulada «DEGENERACIÓN», con la que logra de nuevo llegar al número 1 de terror en Amazon España y México, y es considerada por Amazon España como Bestseller 2013. En julio de 2013 se presenta la antología "No eres bienvenido", publicada por La Pastilla Roja Ediciones, antología en la que participa con el relato "Siempre vuelven para el juicio".
Durante el transcurso del año 2014, «DEGENERACIÓN» es traducida y publicada en tres idiomas (inglés, italiano y portugués).
INFECTUM es su tercer trabajo en solitario, y en la actualidad está trabajando con varios equipos de traductores para editar la novela en inglés e italiano.
Es miembro de NOCTE (Asociación española de escritores de terror).
David Pardo actualmente reside en Navarrés, un pequeño pueblo de la provincia de Valencia, con su esposa y su pequeña hija.

David Pardo was born one May day in 1980 in Alzira, Spain. His interest in the Terror genera began in his childhood and has continued through his teenage years until today.

In February of 2012, Pardo published Pueblo de Sombras (Village of Shadows), which got to the first position in Amazon Spain's Fantasy, Terror, and Science Fiction genera and was one of the most downloaded digital novels of the year. In November of 2012, Pardo independently published his second work: a short novel in the zombie subgenera entitled Degeneration. With this second novel, Pardo's work again got to the first position in Amazon Spain and Mexico's Terror genera. It was also an Amazon Spain bestseller in 2013. In July of 2013, the anthology No eres bienvenido (You Aren't Welcome) was published by La Pastilla Roja Ediciones, which includes Pardo's story Siempre vuelven para el juicio (They Always Come Back for the Trial).

David Pardo currently resides in Navarrés, a small village in the Providence of Valencia, Spain, with his wife and little girl.
