A Developed Computational Code to Build a 3D Fracture Network to Reduce the U…

Rock masses comprise intact rock and discontinuities, such as fractures, which significantly influence their mechanical and hydraulic properties. Uncertainty in constructing the fracture network can notably affect the outcomes of sensitive analyses, including tunnel stability simulations. Thus, accurately determining specific parameters of rock joints, including orientation and trace length, is…

Parallel investigations of remote sensing and ground-truth Lake Chad’s leve…

Lake Chad is facing critical situations since the 1960s due to the effects of climate change and anthropogenic activities. The statistical analyses of remote sensing climate variables (i.e., evapotranspiration, specific humidity, soil temperature, air temperature, precipitation, soil moisture) and remote sensing and ground-truth lake level applied to the period 1993–2012 reveal that remote se…

A hybrid framework for modelling domains using quantitative covariates

Domains define the boundaries of mineralisation zones, within which the grade distribution of the target minerals can be quantified via an established mineral resource estimation procedure. Available domain modelling techniques include manual interpretation, implicit modelling and advanced geostatistical approaches. In mining applications, the most commonly used method is manual domaining, whic…

Estimating size of finite fracture networks in layered reservoirs

Conductive fractures in petroleum reservoirs may be totally isolated or fully interconnected. There is an intermediate state between the two extremities. Partially fractured reservoirs include finite fracture networks (FFN), which are bundles of interconnected fractures embedded in a sea of isolated fractures. Devising measures for sizes of FFNs is crucial in estimating critical engineering asp…
