Limits on the penetration of coiled tubing in horizontal oil wells: effect of the pipe geometry. (2005)
Journal Article
McCourt, I., & Kubie, J. (2005). Limits on the penetration of coiled tubing in horizontal oil wells: effect of the pipe geometry. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 219(11), 1191-1197

To carry out remedial work in oil wells through the production tubing string, a method using a continuous length of steel coiled tubing is used. In horizontal wells substantial friction forces are generated which resist the motion of the tubing as it...

Sustainability analysis of window frames (2005)
Journal Article
Asif, M., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2005). Sustainability analysis of window frames. Building services engineering research & technology : BSER & T, 26(1), 71-87. https://doi.org/10.1191/0143624405bt118tn

The characteristics of the frame materials have significant impacts on the properties of a window. A window itself plays a crucial role in determining the overall energy performance of the building. This article analyses four different frame types; a... Read More about Sustainability analysis of window frames.
