An illustrated history of the Marion Dwight Harbaugh and Marjorie Warvelle Harbaugh Family, Ancestors and Descendants.
A biography including autobiography of Marjorie Warvelle Harbaugh,1897-1982, daughter of George William Warvelle,1851-1940, noted Chicago Law Professor and author of many legal volumes still found in law libraries.
This is a compilation of the writings by or about the Harbaugh Family. The goal is to give the reader a glimpse of the real people these ancestors and relatives were; including Grandfather Malendez Harbaugh, Grandmother Alice Harbaugh, Aunt Harriet Harbaugh, Aunt Lucile Noland, Aunt Effie Warvelle, Father Marion Dwight Harbaugh and Mother Marjorie Warvelle Harbaugh. Relevant writings from other relations are also included.
A biography of George William Warvelle, L.L.D.,1852-1940; noted Chicago Professor of Law, philosopher, legal scholar and author of many legal volumes still in print and found in contemporary law libraries
Modeling and simulation were introduced to the earth sciences about four decades ago. Modeling has proven its worth and now it is an accepted procedure for analyzing and solving geological problems. The papers in this collection are focused on modeling sediment deposition and sedimentary sequences and have a decidedly practical flavor. Some of the leading simulation packages, such as CORRELATOR, SEDFLUX, SEDpak, SEDSIM, STRATA, and STRATSIM are applied to problems in hydrocarbon exploration, oil production, groundwater development, coal-bed appraisal, geothermics, and environmental diagnosis. All of these subjects fall under the broad heading of sedimentary basin analysis. The fifteen papers in this volume are written by internationally recognized experts from academia and industry. The contributions represent the status of geologic modeling and simulation at the start of the 21st century, and will give the reader an insight into current research problems and their possible solutions.
The petroleum industry is enduring difficult financial times because of the continuing depressed price of crude oil on the world market. This has caused major corporate restructuring and reductions in staff throughout the industry. Because oil exploration must now be done with fewer people under more difficult economic constraints, it is essential that the most effective and efficient procedures be used. Computing Risk for Oil Prospects describes how prospect risk assessment — predicting the distribution of financial gains or losses that may result from the drilling of an exploration well — can be done using objective procedures implemented on personal computers. The procedures include a...
The book introduces procedures for simulating migration and entrapment of oil in three dimensions in sequences of sandstones and shales. A principal purpose is to show how simulation experiments can represent oil migration routes and predict places where oil may be trapped in sandstones and intercalated shales. The book derives the differential equations used to represent three-dimensional motions of porewater and oil in sedimentary sequences, and shows how the equations may be transformed into finite form for numerical solution with computers. There is emphasis on the graphic display of solutions, and results of example theoretical and actual applications are presented. The book is directed to geologists who have backgrounds in mathematics and computing and who are engaged in oil exploration and production.
John W. Harbaugh has had a career in geology and academia and is a Professor Emeritus of Geological Sciences at Stanford University. He is the author or coauthor of 12 books and has also been connected with oil industry for much of his career. He currently manages oil and gas properties in Oklahoma and Texas.
