CPI (Consumer price index) A consumer price index (CPI) measures changes in the price level of consumer goods and services purchased by households. The CPI is a statistical estimate constructed using the prices of a sample of representative items whose prices are collected periodically. GDP deflator In economics‚ the GDP deflator (implicit price deflator for GDP) is a measure of the level of prices of all new‚ domestically produced‚ final goods and services in an economy.

Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that applies scientific principles to the drainage problems arising during the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery. The working tools of the reservoir engineer are subsurface geology‚ applied mathematics‚ and the basic laws of physics and chemistry governing the behavior of liquid and vapor phases of crude oil‚ natural gas‚ and water in reservoir rock. Of particular interest to reservoir

the hydrogen bonding between the water molecules that can form a continuous water column against the gravity without breaking. 6. Besides cohesion‚ water molecules can also perform adhesion between water molecules and cell walls by hydrogen bonds. 7. Both cohesion and adhesion are important in the transport of water in plants. 8. Related to cohesion is surface tension‚ a measure of how difficult it is to stretch or break the surface of a liquid. 9. At interface of water and air is an ordered arrangement

Soil mechanics is one of the new disciplines of civil engineering‚ concerning the study of soil. It gathers data and provides the theoretical base for analysis in geotechnical engineering. In earlier times‚ constructions were built based on assumptions. After some important foundation-related engineering problems‚ example of the Leaning Tower of Pisa‚ engineers
