Abstract Purpose Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a rare but serious complication. The data available on this topic are heterogeneous and limited, particularly in regard to long‐term survival patient‐reported outcomes (PROs). Therefore, the aim of present study was analyse functional outcome case series PJI primary UKA at tertiary referral centre. Methods Eighteen knees treated for acute or chronic after between 2001 2020 with minimum...
Corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete is a significant concern that affects the durability and service life reinforced structures. This study investigates factors influencing corrosion rate bars embedded concrete, focusing on key material properties such as penetration depth, alkalinity, compressive strength, tensile sorptivity. Fourteen mixes, including supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) silica fume, fly ash, slag, were tested under accelerated conditions using 3.5% sodium...
ABSTRACT The Wajid Sandstone (Ordovician-Permian) as exposed along the road-cut sections of Abha and Khamis Mushayt areas in southwestern Saudi Arabia, is a mediun to coarse-grained, mineralogically mature quartz arenite with an average content over 95%. Monocrystalline dominant framework grain followed by polycrystalline quartz, feldspar micas. non-opaque heavy mineral assemblage sandstone dominated zircon, tourmaline rutile (ZTR). Additional minerals, constituting very minor fraction...
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has been used recently to detect many near-surface geological features in arid regions. In this study, GPR is delineate fractures within the Dammam Dome. This anticlinal structure covers ~160 km2 and hosts first oil well discovered Saudi Arabia. Doming due buoyancy of Hormuz Salt. Rock units present dome range age from Paleocene middle Miocene. Well-developed crosscut extend for several km. Our results prove that techniques can be successfully map precisely...
Utilization of the LMS in teaching is very crucial and reflects on students learning. The current practices student-centered learning (where contribute to subject get involved process) can be applied effectively through using LMS. This paper summarizes an experiment (Blackboard CE8) a graduate course (Advanced Structural Geology) Earth Sciences Department, at KFUPM. demonstrates types tasks assignments given their involvements contributions. Additionally, measurement satisfaction level how...
Permeability in concrete is a fundamental criterion for assessing its quality and ability to resist environmental impacts. This research aims develop an enhanced model estimating water penetration depth into using linear regression analysis. The analysis was conducted the statistical software SPSS. In this study, investigated as dependent variable, while various properties such compressive strength, tensile sorptivity, alkalinity, binder content, water-cement ratio are examined independent...
Summary The Lower Silurian Qusaiba Shale of Qalibah Formation is considered as the most prolific source rock for Paleozoic petroleum system Saudi Arabia. Additionally, it has significant potential unconventional shale gas. This study been conducted on about 30 feet continuous core hot shale, Rub Al-Khali basin, Core description shows different lamination patterns (< 5mm: 5–15 mm and >15 mm), reveals that predominantly composed fine fissile black grey present alternatively. Grey having high...
Abstract Qusaiba shale represents an important source rocks and reservoir target for gas in Saudi Arabia. Geological heterogeneity within represent a challenge characterization, exploration development. A detailed study has been carried out to describe characterize central Arabia using high-resolution outcrop analog from Here we measure model the spatial distribution of lithofacies, porosity geomechanical properties at scale. The aims this are paleoenvironments reconstruct 3D high resolution...
Selection of methods study in geosciences and natural resources exploration hasalways beena concern for communities industries. Financial cost effectiveness the are most important issues. Additionally, integration between different their application order very essential to reach best optimization. Methods such as remote sensing, mapping, various geophysical geochemical surveys, drilling among that were used long time. Those also integrated, recently, with more sophisticated advanced...
Development of comprehensive online courses has to consider several aspects enable them be a useful and usable resource. The well-developed online-course should contain, course information, both modules objectives, interactions, animations self-tests. Moreover, the subject contents completed designed according systematic blue-print. Quality-assurance processes also practiced in all levels development even start from stage content preparation. This paper explains procedure steps followed at...
Lineaments traced from satellite images (scale 1:250,000, band 7) over the giant Ghawar field and adjacent areas indicated major trends of N55°W N35°E, minor lesser N15°E, N5°W, N35°W. The total number lineaments was 413 with variable lengths 2 to 5 km. N55oW N35°W, N25°W N45°W are generally coincident NW-trending high-angle wrench faults that cut older Paleozoic basement rocks (Najd Fault System). NW NE (N35°E) may also be related structures formed by Zagros stress regime, which acted in...
