Meteorological Phenomenon

This article explores how the Nahua of late Postclassic Mesoamerica (1200–1521 CE) created living and material embodiments of their wind god constructed on the basis of sensory experiences that shaped their conception of this divinized meteorological phenomenon. In this process, they employed chromatic and design devices, based on a wide range of natural elements, to add several layers of meaning to the human, painted, and sculpted supports dressed in the god’s insignia. Through a comparative examination of pre-Columbian visual production—especially codices and sculptures—historical sources mainly written in Nahuatl during the viceregal period, and ethnographic data on indigenous communities in modern Mexico, my analysis targets the body paint and shell jewelry of the anthropomorphic “images” of the wind god, along with the Feathered Serpent and the monkey-inspired embodiments of the deity. This study identifies the centrality of other human senses beyond sight in the conception of the wind god and the making of its earthly manifestations. Constructing these deity “images” was tantamount to creating the wind because they were intended to be visual replicas of the wind’s natural behavior. At the same time, they referred to the identity and agency of the wind god in myths and rituals.

Moving Process

Leap frog concept was created to address the loss of single joint rig agility and drive the cycle time average lower than ever. The idea is to move the preparation step into a background activity that includes moving the equipment, killing the well, dismantling the wellhead and installing the well control equipment/BOP before the rig came in. To realize the idea, a second set of equipment is provided along with the manpower. By moving the preparation step, the goal is to eliminate a 50% portion of the job from the critical path. The practice is currently performed in tubing pump wells on land operations. However, the work concept could be implemented for other type of wells, especially ESP wells. After implementation, the cycle time average went down from 18 hours to 11 hours per job, or down by ~40%. The toolpusher also reports more focused operations due to reduced scope and less crew to work with, making the leap frog operation safer and more reliable. Splitting the routine services into 2 parts not only shortened the process but it also reduces noise that usually appear in the preparation process. The team are rarely seen waiting on moving support problems that were usually seen in the conventional process. Having the new process implemented, the team had successfully not only lowered cycle time, but also eliminated several problems in one step. Other benefits from leap frog implementation is adding rig count virtually to the actual physical rig available on location, and also adding rig capacity and completing more jobs compared to the conventional rig. In other parts, leap frog faced some limitation and challenges, such as: limited equipment capability for leap frog remote team to work on stuck plunger, thus hindering its leap frog capability, and working in un-restricted/un-clustered area which disturb the moving process and operation safety.

This paper studies the influence of factors such as heating rate, atomic number, temperature, and annealing time on the structure and the crystallization process of NiAu alloy. Increasing the heating rate leads to the moving process from the crystalline state to the amorphous state; increasing the temperature (T) also leads to a changing process into the liquid state; when the atomic number (N), and t increase, it leads to an increased crystalline process. As a result, the dependence between size (l) and atomic number (N), the total energy of the system (Etot) with N as l~N−1/3, and −Etot always creates a linear function of N, glass temperature (Tg) of the NiAu alloy, which is Tg = 600 K. During the study, the number of the structural units was determined by the Common Neighborhood Analysis (CNA) method, radial distribution function (RDF), size (l), and Etot. The result shows that the influencing factors to the structure of NiAu alloy are considerable.
