Numerical modelling of geological phenomena in karst regions
2001This article gives an overview of geophysical methods that can be used for the investigation in karst regions. Representative geological profiles and some geomechanical parameters can be estimated on the basis of geophysical measurements. Numerical modelling was performed in order to study the subsurface processes that lead to the formation of ...

Drawing parallels: Modelling geological phenomena using constraint satisfaction
Journal of Structural Geology, 2010Abstract This paper gives insight into the transition between the different folding-types seen in nature. Using constraint satisfaction and optimization to study least energy solutions of an elastic, frictional model for concentric parallel folding, kink band waveshapes resulting from the same model are discovered. Simplifying the concentric parallel

Correlating magnetic field polarity changes with geologic phenomena
Geology, 1985Two reported correlations are discussed in this paper: the first claims a correlation between magnetic polarity and oxidation state of igneous rocks, and the second claims that the Hawaiian hot-spot chain exhibits a significantly dominant normal-polarity bias.

ENGINEERING PROTECTION OF HIGHWAYS FROM DANGEROUS GEOLOGICAL PHENOMENA
Crisis Management and TechnologiesThe article is devoted to road safety and engineering protection issues. Engineering protection of highways is a set of measures that can ensure their safe exploitation. Commonly, the engineering service is structured within three stages: slope stability analysis, detailed examination of hazardous road sections and implementation of complex engineering

On the Basin of the Firth of Forth, and some of its Geological Phenomena
Proceedings of the Royal Society of EdinburghI. An account was given of the dimensions of the estuary, in respect of length, width, and depth; and also of the general direction of the axis of the estuary.II. It was next shown that the formation of the estuary was probably due to the great geological fractures and dislocations which had taken place in this part of Scotland, inasmuch as the ...

Spatio-temporal characteristics of geological phenomena: Linking patterns to processes
To predict and identify governing geological processes and their occurrence in space and time one needs to understand at what spatio-temporal scales they are active. The same goes for the design of experiments or numerical simulations and their up-scaling.Koehn, Daniel*, Piazolo, Sandra
