Pore Pressure Parameters and Cyclic Resistance Under Generalized Loading
… the applicability of the Skempton & Henkel pore pressure formulations for generalized 3D initial stress states. Skempton’s pore pressure parameter formulations for isotropic material have been extended to cross anisotropic materials, and it was shown that the principles are applicable even …

Wave Induced Vertical Pore Pressure Gradients at Sandy Beaches
… must be considered. Among these many processes, pore pressure gradients within sandy beach sediments affect sediment transport by reducing the sediment's effective stress to zero (this process is called liquefaction). Despite the known importance of these pressure gradients with respect to …

Modeling of pore pressure propagation and dissipation in compressible porous media
… phenomena associated with the propagation of pore water pressure in high plasticity clays. Specifically, it addresses the pore pressure response in areas subjected to sudden increases in pore water pressure at their top boundary. The main applications of this research would be the study of …

Processing Case Study with AVO and Pore Pressure Analyses: Eugene Island, Gulf of Mexico
… and AVO (Amplitude Versus Offset) and pore pressure analyses. While the supporting theory for each method has been well established, an integration of the methods to a real exploration project can be confusing for the uninitiated. Given a seismic dataset and well-log curves, how exactly …

Effects of erosion on pore pressure and groundwater flow in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin
Fluid pressures too low to be in equilibrium with the topography of the land surface occur in Cretaceous sediments over much of the western Canada sedimentary basin. I used a numerical model to study the origin of the low pressure in southern Alberta and its effects on patterns of regional …

Joule heating and pore pressure evolution, magmatic intrusions at continental rifts, and microseisms in Yellowstone Lake
The goal of this thesis is to investigate research topics related to geothermal resources. Chapter 1 introduces the thesis and motivates the need to study research topics in relevant geothermal environments, and develop new technologies to economically extract heat from these resources. In Chapter …

Design and in situ testing of a piezometer system to measure earthquake -induced pore -pressure changes
<p>Pore pressure changes have been measured in fine sand deposits that are known to have liquefied during earthquakes. Some of the measured signals have not been similar to what was expected during earthquake-induced liquefaction. Using artificially generated signals, several investigators have …

Pore pressure, and the interdependency between lithology, porosity, and acoustic log response targeting the Vaca Muerta Formation
Accurately predicting pore pressure in unconventional plays is an important aspect in executing sound, safe, and economical, drilling practices. Disequilibrium compaction, where fluid pressure increases due to compaction (loading), cannot fully explain overpressure conditions present in many …

Seismic site response analysis and extraction of dynamic soil behavior and pore pressure response from downhole array measurements
… in the knowledge of shear-induced excess pore pressure generation has led to the development and implementation of pore pressure response models for site response analysis with effective stress consideration. This thesis chiefly regards the further development of an inverse analysis …
