Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

Rapid Sketch-based 3D Modeling of Geology

open access: yes, 2013
We present and compare two different approaches for performing rapid 3D geological modeling. The ad-hoc approach is based on a composition of many specialized modeling functions, while the generic approach provides one powerful, generic modeling function.

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

On the importance of the geological architecture in 3D modelling

open access: yes, 2016
3D Geological modelling aims at representing the geology of the subsurface in 3 dimensions. Building a 3D geological model is not only pushing data through a code to obtain a representation of the geology. Two kinds of knowledge are mainly used to complete a geological model.

Structural setting of the Jordan Northern Highlands : an integrated study using surface and sub-surface geological data by utilizing GIS Technology

open access: yes, 2011
This study was designed, for the identification of the General structural style of this part of Jordan by: (1) Definition of dominant structural styles in the JNH: such as the main structural elements, basins, and highs; (2) Inference of the structural ...

Dynamic tensile strength and fracture evolution of characteristic shale with bedding and hole using linear regression theory

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The spiral conical perforations generated during methane in situ explosion fracturing operations lead to tensile fracture propagation in shale reservoirs being governed by the combined effects of impact pressure, bedding, and aperture under explosive loading. Using multiple regression analysis and digital image correlation technology, the mechanisms of
