Stereological Interpretation of Rock Fracture Traces on Borehole Walls and Other Cylindrical Surfaces
… for understanding and analyzing the impact of fractures to rock mass behavior. Fracture trace data have long been used by engineers and geologists to character fracture system. For subsurface fractures, however, boreholes, wells, tunnels and other cylindrical samplings of fractures often …

Volume change behavior of clay soils and the effect on discrete fractures
This study examines the behavior of subsurface fractures in fine-grained soil such as clays in response to changing environmental conditions. Fractures serve as conduits for moisture transfer, which can lead to substantial shrinking and swelling of the surrounding fracture boundary soils. These …

Applications of the Radon transform, Stratigraphic filtering, and Object-based stochastic reservoir modeling
… diffraction patterns, which may be indicative of subsurface fractures. The geometry of primary reflections and diffractions on synthetic common-shot-gather data indicate that Radon filters can predict and model primary reflections upon inverse transformation. These modeled primaries can then be …
