METHODOLOGY FOR ESTIMATING LANDSLIDES SUSCEPTIBILITY USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS [PDF]
In this study, the susceptibility to landslides at Sevilla township, Valle del Cauca, located at southwest of Colombia was evaluated. The conditioning factors that involve the generation of landslides were evaluated using Geographic Information Systems ...

The Geology of Pluto and Charon Through the Eyes of New Horizons [PDF]
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft has revealed the complex geology of Pluto and Charon. Pluto's encounter hemisphere shows ongoing surface geological activity centered on a vast basin containing a thick layer of volatile ices that appears to be involved in convection and advection, with a crater retention age no greater than $\approx$10 Ma.

Dike Propagation During Global Contraction: Making Sense of Conflicting Stress Histories on Mercury
Thrust fault-related landforms, smooth plains units, and impact craters and basins have all been observed on the surface of Mercury. While tectonic landforms point to a long-lived history of global cooling and contraction, smooth plains units have been ...

Direct current resistivity with steel-cased wells [PDF]
The work in this paper is motivated by the increasing use of electrical and electromagnetic methods in geoscience problems where steel-cased wells are present. Applications of interest include monitoring carbon capture and storage and hydraulic fracturing operations, as well as detecting flaws or breaks in degrading steel-casings -- such wells pose ...

Two-phase geothermal model with fracture network and multi-branch wells [PDF]
This paper focuses on the numerical simulation of geothermal systems in complex geological settings. The physical model is based on two-phase Darcy flows coupling the mass conservation of the water component with the energy conservation and the liquid vapor thermodynamical equilibrium.

π–π Conjugated Bonds Stacking/Scattering for Switchable Lubrication in Supramolecular Hydrogel
Inspired by the hagfish′s behavior of secreting mucus to escape from predators, a dual‐responsive intelligent lubricating material (PPRA) is successfully prepared. When PPRA is heated or sheared, a partial gel‐sol transition occurs in the hydrogel, resulting in a sol‐state RPAD layer forming on the surface, which acts as a lubricating layer and reduces

DeFault: Deep-learning-based Fault Delineation Using the IBDP Passive Seismic Data at the Decatur CO2 Storage Site [PDF]
The carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) framework is an essential component in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, with its success hinging on the comprehensive knowledge of subsurface geology and geomechanics. Passive seismic event relocation and fault detection serve as indispensable tools, offering vital insights into subsurface ...
