Geomorphic Concrete : Material and fabrication strategies for heterogeneous concrete morphology
… construction methodology closely aligned with geological formation process by incorporating natural forces as collaborators in concrete fabrication. Geomorphic concrete is an alternate paradigm of material-based design and construction methodology achieved by exploiting the variation in …

The Diffusion Equation Method for Global Optimization and Its Application to Magnetotelluric Geoprospecting
… of rock (or oil or water) and the nature of the geological formation. Unfortunately, electromagnetic inverse problems of this kind are ill-posed. We investigate the use of the Diffusion Equation Method (DEM) for global optimization in implementing an approximate quasisolution method for …

Comprehensive analysis of an ongoing CO2 storage project
… a major challenge. CO2 sequestration in the geological formations has been identified as an alternative to counter the impact of the emissions. CO2 sequestration refers to the capture and long term storage of CO2.;In order to properly asses the viability of CO2 sequestration in a geological …

The investigation of soil dielectric influence towards terrestrial background radiation
… μR hr -1). This was due to the differences in geological formation for Rengam Jerangau and Peat. For SEM/EDX, the average major atomic percentages found in each soil type are Si, Al, and C, while Fe and K are only minor. In addition, the 238U, 232Th and 40K concentrations were determined using …

Permeability reduction in porous media due to suspended particles
… Clogging is the retention of fine particles in a geological formation. This process causes a reduction in pore space, which reduces the aquifer's capacity to store and transmit water. The purpose of this study was to analyze the reduction of hydraulic conductivity in porous media due to retention …

The liability of carbon dioxide shortage
… examines the liability of storing CO2 in geological formations. There is a potential tortious and contractual liability exposure if stored CO2 is not fully contained by the geological formation. Using a combination of case study and survey methods, this research examines the risks …

Formation of a bath - Geological processes in Architecture
Geological processes define every place on earth. They tell us their story of formation, of shaping events that have long passed and about current conditions that continue to form the place. Each place therefore reveals its historical events and points towards its future. Man manipulates these …

Community composition in relation to substrate, elevation, and topography in the Salt Pond Mountain area in Giles County, Virginia
… elevation, aspect, slope inclination, underlying geological formation, and soil physical and chemical characteristics. In addition, exposure-induced differences in vegetation, soils, and microclimate were analyzed in two stands on adjacent north- and south-facing slopes. Measurements of …

Experimental, Theoretical, and Numerical Investigations of Geomechanics/Flow Coupling in Energy Georeservoirs
… from shale, a fine-grained, low-permeability geological formation, has altered the global energy landscape. Constricting pressure exerted on a shale formation has a significant effect on the rock's apparent permeability. Gas flow in low-permeability shales is significantly different from …

A comparative study of the geohydrology of archaean formations and associated rocks in the North-Western Transvaal and the North-Western Cape Province
… and hydrology. In the Transvaal the Archaean Formations range from the Swaziland System to the Dominion Reef System, with younger intrusives and a cover of Tertiary to Recent ferricrete, calcrete and soil. In the Cape Province the comparable formations are the Kheis System to the Soetlief …

Numerical Simulation and Optimization of CO2 Sequestration in Saline Aquifers
… years on the development of safe and economical Geological Carbon Sequestration: GCS) technology. Although among one of the most promising technologies to address the problem of anthropogenic global-warming due to CO2 emissions, the detailed mechanisms of GCS are not well-understood. As a result, …

Frac flowback water blending and treatment requirements based on spatial and temporal water quality analysis
… concentration, however, closely correlates with geological formation, so the iron concentration of produced water must be determined spatially as an average value and maximum value in each Integrated Development Plan. A framework for optimizing produced water reuse is presented as part of this …

Modelling aquifer thermal energy storage systems
… model of the complex heat transfer in the geological formation is developed to analyse the thermal evolution of a double well aquifer thermal energy storage system and identify optimal operating principles. First, the key controls of a system delivering an equal amount of heating and …
