In-situ 4D visualization and analysis of temperature-driven creep in an oil shale propped fracture
Here, the proppant embedment due to creep in shales is a known issue affecting the useable lifetime of wells in unconventional oil and gas recovery. One of the factors influencing creep is the presence of organics, whose properties can be very sensitive to temperature. In this work we investigated for the first time the role of temperature-induced creep increase in proppant embedment in an organics-rich Green River oil shale sample via in-situ synchrotron X-ray micro-computed tomography. We observed that temperatures as low as 75 °C already induce fast creep, with a fracture aperture closing rate of 13 μm/h and a loss of fracture conductivity rate of 8.7%/h, due only to proppant embedment, in the measured interval at the first heating stage. Local displacement data analysis provided evidence for markedly plastic deformation around the proppant-shale contacts, in contrast with the brittle proppant embedment observed on more cemented and less organics-rich shales at room temperature. The results highlight how the problem of temperature-dependent mechanical behavior might be more important than previously thought, in shales with a high content in organics, and that in-situ micro-imaging techniques can play a key role in understanding the underlying mechanisms, contributing to solve creep-related problems associated with hydraulic fracturing in complex scenarios.

Three-dimensional visualization of the Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus occlusion-derived virion envelopment process gives new clues as to its mechanism
Baculoviruses produce two virion phenotypes, occlusion-derived virion (ODV) and budded virion (BV). ODV envelopment occurs in the nucleus. Morphogenesis of the ODV has been studied extensively; however, the mechanisms underlying microvesicle formation and ODV envelopment in nuclei remain unclear. In this study, we used electron tomography (ET) together with the conventional electron microscopy to study the envelopment of Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) ODV. Our results demonstrate that not only the inner but also the outer nuclear membrane can invaginate and vesiculate into microvesicles and that intranuclear microvesicles are the direct source of the ODV membrane. Five main events in the ODV envelopment process are summarized, from which we propose a model to explain this process. - Highlights: • Both the inner and outer nuclear membranes could invaginate. • Both the inner and outer nuclear membranes could vesiculate into microvesicles. • Five main events in the ODV envelopment process are summarized. • A model is proposed to explain this ODV envelopment.

Visualization of Hierarchical Nanodomains in Polymer/Fullerene Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells
Here, traditional electron microscopy techniques such as bright-field imaging provide poor contrast for organic films and identification of structures in amorphous material can be problematic, particularly in high-performance organic solar cells. By combining energy-filtered corrected transmission electron microscopy, together with electron energy loss and X-ray energy-dispersive hyperspectral imaging, we have imaged PTB7/ PC 61 BM blended polymer optical photovoltaic films, and were able to identify domains ranging in size from several hundred nanometers to several nanometers in extent. This work verifies that microstructural domains exist in bulk heterojunctions in PTB7/PC 61 BM polymeric solar cells at multiple length scales and expands our understanding of optimal device performance providing insight for the design of even higher performance cells.
