Item Optimal control design for uncertain aerial manipulator system based on an adaptive approach(Inderscience Publishers, 2024) Riache, Samah; Kidouche, Madjid; Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Tee, Kong FahIn this paper, an optimal controller has been proposed for an aerial manipulator (AM) consisting of a quadrotor uncertain system with a two-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm. Wherein, the dynamics of this system have been derived based on Gauss's principle. The employment of this principal has permitted the pinpoint of the inner structure of the uncertain system and its possible moves. It has kept the AM in a very precise formation to analyse its dynamics and propose the suitable control. The proposed controller is designed using an adaptive approach of the non-singular terminal sliding mode technique. The main contribution is that the proposed approach guarantees both the good tracking of the desired trajectories in finite time and the chattering effect attenuation without overestimating the switching control gains. The design does not necessitate a priori knowledge of the upper limits of disturbances; the stability of the system has been established through the utilisation of Lyapunov theory. The simulation results have proved the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed optimal nonlinear terminal sliding mode technique for such an uncertain system in comparison to the sliding mode controller.Item Study of Pore Level Influences on Reservoir Quality Based on Rock Typing: Case Study of Quartzite El Hamra, Algeria(Springer Nature, 2024) Nettari, Ferhat; Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Aliouane, Leila; Ouadfeul, Sid-AliOne of the biggest challenges facing Geoscientists and reservoir modelers is how to improve the descriptive understanding of the hydrocarbons reservoir, and therefore, define the best representative reservoir properties (e.g., fluid flow capacity) in the simulation model, whereas poorly described reservoir characteristics can lead to a significant impact on reservoir performance predictions and its future production behaviors. In order to master the Quartzite El Hamra reservoir in Southern part of Hassi Messaoud field in Algeria, this study was dedicated to characterize the petrophysical properties by using rock typing and flow unit techniques (Winland R35 and FZI). The main objective was to evaluate the pore level’s influences on reservoir quality and log response and to study the relationships between the composition of pore geometry and reservoir quality. This allowed us to understand the factors that control the quality of the reservoir and the fluids’ flow characteristics. Moreover, this study was based on detailed description and laboratory tests on cores and thin sections and the integration of this information with geological, Petrophysical, and engineering data. Furthermore, appropriate set of reservoir properties (i.e., porosity—permeability ratio, R35, storage percentage, and percent flow) are well defined for six identified Hydraulic Flow Units (HFUs). The obtained results can improve reservoir simulation studies for performance prediction, history matching, and future development decisions in the field.Item Pre-stack Seismic Inversion for Potential Reservoirs’ Characterization in Oued Mya Basin, Algeria(Springer Nature, 2024) Eladj, Said; Benabid, MounaKeltoum; Doghmane, Mohamed ZinelabidineThe main objective of this study is to characterize the potential reservoirs situated in Oued Mya basin in Algeria by using pre-stack seismic inversion data. In fact, rock physics has been used to estimate shear waves and their densities from the compressional wave velocities at six wells, and then, cross-plots were exploited to establish a mathematical relation between the petrophysical and acoustic parameters of the rocks. After that, the lithological classification has been iteratively generalized for the whole seismic volume. The final model, obtained with a correlation ratio of 75%, allowed the classification of the dominant facies in the reservoir. Furthermore, the Petrophysical volumes obtained using these mathematical relations provided the horizontal distribution of the different existing reservoirs with a focus on the potential ones. The obtained results in this case study have highlighted the crucial role played by the seismic inversion in the characterization of the oil reservoirs in the Oued Mya Basin. It also permitted to provide lateral variations of petrophysical parameters of the reservoir; thus, it eliminates the problem of punctuality of the information provided by logging data. This characterization step is very important for determining the positions of new exploration drillings in order to optimize exploration strategy with minimal uncertainties; therefore, exploration costs can be optimized. The main novelty of this paper is that the obtained model was very reliable and its correlations with six wells in the basin were high; hence, it has been used to characterize the reservoirs and to identify new areas with hydrocarbons potentials where highly probable discoveries were identified.Item A Practical Seismic Attributes’ Workflow for Natural Fractures’ Characterization of Tight Reservoirs in Algeria(Springer Nature, 2024) Bacetti, Abdelmoumen; Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Eladj, SaidIn this paper, a new workflow of geometrical seismic attributes for a structural geological study has been proposed. The small faults with low throw were detected, and the natural fractures’ model has been obtained for tight reservoirs. The fractures model has been correlated with imagery data taken from exploration wells in the studied field. The proposed attributes allowed us to map major faults with a throw less than the seismic resolution, and the curvatures have also been used to map subtler folds and flexures and overlying other formations. The geometrical seismic attributes used are: Curvature, Variance, Chaos, Structural smoothing, Edge enhancement, and Ant tracking. Moreover, the effectiveness of the proposed methodology has been demonstrated through the case study of Ain Amenas tight reservoir. The obtained results have been compared to conventional seismic interpretation results, for which it was demonstrated the existence of small faults that cannot be seen by the old methodology. Therefore, the constructed fracture model has been correlated and matched to the results of imagery interpretation of data taken from wells in the field. Finally, a relationship between fracture density and the attributes has been proposed in order to be considered for reservoir model construction in the production phase. This workflow can be useful in the optimization strategy of exploration costs of hydrocarbon resources of oil and gas national companies. The main novelty of this study is that it provides a practical workflow tool for continuous fracture modeling (CFM) and its successful application to several projects.Item Real-Time Reduction of rotor position estimation error based on the stator flux Estimation-Combined method for sensorless control of PMSMs drives(Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l, 2021) Aibeche, Abderrezak; Akroum, Hamza; Boudouda, Aimad; Kidouche, Madjid; Doghmane, Mohamed ZinelabidineThis paper presents the implantation and the performance improvement of real-time reduction of rotor position estimation error based on the stator flux estimation-combined method for sensorless control of PMSMs drives. Wherein, the proposed method is designed based on a simple algorithm for accurate estimation and robust control of quasi-exact stator flux and position/speed of PMSMs. A large-speed range of applications in sensorless control strategies is achieved by using the mathematical model of PMSM motor. The latter presents the main idea of the estimators’ structures design. They are generally composed of voltage and current models (VM and CM). However, the dynamic performances of these methods are influenced in the low and high-speed ranges, and they are sensitive to parameters variations. The estimators’ structures are dominated by the current model at the low-speed range, and by the voltage model at the high-speed range. The technique proposed in this study is the combination of the two preceding models; this provides performances’ improvement in the PMSM dynamics for a large speed variation with compensating estimation errors for the two separate methods (VM and CM). The main objective of this combined method is the drawback reduction for the separate use of VM and CM estimators. The algorithm principle is based on exploiting and combining the two estimators while measuring the stator voltages and the currents, in addition to estimating the rotor position and the speed. Furthermore, the performances of the proposed method have been tested and validated through real-time experiments by using dSPACE ds 1104 DSP boardItem Segmentation and extraction of GBM tumor in brain MRI medical images : comparative study(Springer, 2022) Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Driss, M.; Eladj, S.In this study, a comparison between two image segmentation methods has been discussed; the first method is based on normal brain's tissue recognition then tumor extraction using Thresholding method. The second method is classification based on fuzzy EM segmentation, which is used for both brain recognition and tumor extraction. Medical image examinations often use more information that are acquired from multiple imaging modalities, this use is increasing due to the complementary information that can be obtained from data fusion. The later improves the quality of the diagnosis; for instance, the image fusion can be developed for data from different modalities or different individuals, it may also concern fusion of image data with an external model, this can express prior knowledge about the problem at hand. The image data used in this comparative study belong to Algerian patients with Glioblastoma multiform. Since the goal of these methods is to detect, segment, extract, classify and measure properties of the brain normal and abnormal (tumor) tissues, the results of comparative study provided a guide tool of which method is more accurate in term of GBM volume estimation for the studied samples of the patientsItem Classification of ordovician tight reservoir facies in Algeria by using Neuro-Fuzzy algorithm(Springer, 2022) Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Ouadfeul, Sid-Ali; Benaissa, Z.; Eladj, S.The Tight reservoirs in Algeria are generally characterized by their complex nature and their degree of heterogeneity. Wherein, the quantitative evaluation of such type of reservoirs necessitate the determination of facies in order to estimate the in-situ hydrocarbons and their nature. However, the classical methods of determining facies are essentially based on core data and carrots, which are not always technically available. Artificial neural network (ANN) is one of the recent developed methods being used to provide facies classification with a minimum available core data and by using well logs. Even though, the ANN results are acceptable, it determines only the dominant facies at each depth point off logs, no information can be provided for the secondary facies. For that reason, the main objective of this study is to develop a Neuro-fuzzy algorithm that allows the determination of secondary facies in addition to dominant facies. Indeed, the algorithm has been trained by using core data at wells’ scale in the Ordovician reservoir located in an Algerian southern Petroleum field. Moreover, the Neuro-fuzzy classifier has been tested in near wells, for which, the obtained results has demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach to improve tight reservoir characterization in the studied field. Hence, the designed algorithm is highly recommended for other petroleum systems in Middle East and North Africa regionItem Weight-On-Bit variations analyses in the drillstring of rotary drilling systems under Stick-Slip vibrations(Springer, 2022) Kessai, Idir; Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Benammar, SamirIn this article, the main objective is to study the influences of weight-on-bit variation on the severity of stick-slip vibrations that appear in the toolstring of the rotary drilling systems. These types of vibrations can be very harmful to the equipment if not detected in real time and mitigated soon after. The only solution that is adopted in Algerian petroleum industry is the manipulation of drilling parameters, namely weight-on-bit and top drive torque. Where, the drillers as soon as they detect the appearance of such vibrations through abnormal decrease of rate of penetration (ROP) and the increase of the torque, they generally decrease the weight on bit and increase the torque of the top drive by increasing the angular velocity so that the vibrations will disappear and ROP will be maintained. However, the influences of the fast variation of these parameters (either increasing or decreasing) have not been previously studied. For that reason, the simulations conducted in this study are designed with different scenarios in order to analyze these effects for the severity of the stick-slip vibrations. Moreover, the importance of the analysis is that it allowed us to determine at what rate the Wob and Torque should be varied without creating sever vibrations that may damage the toolstring equipment. Therefore, it is highly recommended to consider the results of this study in suppressing the stick-slip vibrationsItem Decomposition Strategies for the Dynamic Design and Control Optimization of Large Scale Systems(2014) Doghmane, Mohamed ZinelabidineItem a new decomposition strategy for the dynamic control design of complex industrial systems(2014) Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine
