Sandstone intervals of the Lower Goru Formation of the Cretaceous age are proven reservoir intervals in the middle Indus Basin, Pakistan. However, based on seismic data interpretation, it is difficult to differentiate payable gas sand from non-payable gas sand. Various types of post-stacks seismic attributes are extracted and analyzed to differentiate payable gas sand from non-payable. The analysis reveals that average instantaneous frequency, peak spectral frequency, average instantaneous phase and sweetness seem to be more effective attributes along with energy half time. Sweetness attribute map shows two sweet spot below the targeted window which indicate to the presence of gas play. Statistical analysis is also carried out to find the associations between seismic attributes and thickness of gas layer values. Cross plots of these attributes were quantified through regression analysis. A good correlation with regression coefficient (R 2 ) [ 0.78 is found between seismic attributes and gas layer thickness except average instantaneous phase attribute, which lays the foundation for predicting the thickness of gas reservoir.

The polymorphs of 2ClChMe-4 in Form I (ribbonlike crystal) and Form II (block-like crystal) were prepared, and they exhibited curling/flipping and expansion upon heating on account of single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations. The irreversible phase transformations occurred separately at 53.2 °C and 57.8 °C for the crystals in Form I and Form II, during which the molecular conformation of 2ClChMe-4 changed and the molecules slipped along the (100) plane. Movement at the molecular level resulted in changes of cell parameters, which in turn led to macroscopic motions of the crystals upon heating. Additionally, the ribbon-like crystals of 2ClChMe-4 showed photo-induced bending driven by [2 + 2] cycloaddition. Accordingly, an actuator showing reversible bending behavior was fabricated triggered by light and heat successively. Like biomimetic self-actuators, such multi-stimuli mechanical responsive molecular crystals might have potential applications in soft robots, artificial muscles and microfluidic systems.
