Additive manufacturing (AM) of titanium (Ti) alloys has always fascinated researchers owing to its high strength to weight ratio, biocompatibility, and anticorrosive properties, making Ti alloy an ideal candidate for medical applications. The aim of this paper is to optimize the AM parameters, such as Laser Power (LP), Laser Scan Speed (LSS), and Hatch Space (HS), using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Grey Relational analysis (GRA) for mechanical and surface characteristics like hardness, surface roughness, and contact angle, of Ti6Al4V ELI considering medical implant applications. The input parameters are optimized to have optimum hardness, surface roughness and hydrophilicity required for medical implants.

In this paper, a novel phoxonic crystal (PxC) structure composed of silicon, with optimal dual phononic band gap (PNBG) and photonic band gap (PTBG), is presented. Using the finite element analysis method, both the transmission characteristics and dispersion relation of PNBG and PTBG are calculated, and the existence of dual BGs is demonstrated by the means of the analysis of transmission for the PxC structure. The influences of structural parameters on the dual forbidden band characteristics are further explored, the sensitive structure parameters can be determined: the width of elastic beams, the length of square silicon, and the length of square hole. Using the orthogonal test, 25 experimental runs based on 3-factor and 5-level experiment are performed to finish the numerical experimental design and analysis. Four functional relationships can be acquired between the three sensitive parameters and dual BGs. Finally, the unified objective function method is employed to perform the construction of the single objective optimization model for the purpose of obtaining the optimal dual BGs and the corresponding optimal parameter combinations of the PxC structure. Such scheme can be used as the potential optimization way, which may find wide application in the development and design of PxCs.

Abstract Well K1002 is the first highly deviated ultra-deep well in Tarim Oilfield of China, with the reservoir depth 7060m and the well deviation of 60° ∼ 77.6° in the fractured interval. Because of large deviation angle, high breakdown pressure and in-situ stress, poor effectiveness of natural fractures, large reservoir thickness, it is difficult and risky to implement hydraulic fracturing. In this paper, the fractured well was taken for a case study to illustrate the holistic optimization to guarantee the treatment success, a world-wide difficulty with high engineering risk. For figuring out a reasonable treatment design, comprehensive lab experiments and numerical simulation were conducted to analyze and benchmark the reservoir characteristics, rock mechanics and geological model. Systematic study on reducing breakdown pressure, development of natural fractures evaluation, multi-size combination of diverting agent, separated layer stimulation and fracture parameters optimization, treatment fluid formulation, proppant screening and operation program were carried out. Considering the wellbore trajectory and rock mechanics characteristics of well K1002, a breakdown pressure prediction model was established to optimize the perforation orientation. The best perforation orientation was 28° and 208°, the worst perforation orientation was 148° and 328°, and the breakdown pressure range was 168-175MPa with 60° phase angle. Combination with "imaging logging (0-3m) + far detection acoustic logging (0-30m) + geomechanics (0-300m)", the comprehensive evaluation and prediction of natural fractures in near wellbore area and far wellbore area were realized. Based on this, the stimulation technology of "mechanical layering + diverting agent" was optimized to connect the fracture development zone in near wellbore and far wellbore area. According to the Tight Packing Theory, the idea of "multi-size particles combination of diverting agent" was put forward. Through the experiment study, the combination of 1-5mm and 5-10mm particles was optimized, and the optimal chart of diverting agent size combination was made under different reservoir temperatures. For the fracturing job, totally 2562m3 KCL weighted fracturing fluid and 159.2m3 ceramic proppant of 40-70 mesh were pumped. The operation parameters were in reasonable agreement with the design. The initial test production was 10 times higher than before. The experience gained in this case study has some guiding significance for improving the success rate of hydraulic fracturing treatments in the highly deviated ultra-deep well and for effectively developing such fractured tight sandstone reservoirs, both theoretically and practically.
