Evaluating the feasibility of using a rapeseed oil‐derived anionic polymeric surfactant for enhanced oil recovery from carbonate/sandstone composite reservoirs

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
The experimental procedure for evaluating the rapeseed oil‐based polymeric surfactant in enhanced oil recovery. Abstract This study aims to investigate enhanced oil recovery from carbonate/sandstone composite (CSC) reservoirs using a negative‐charged rapeseed oil‐based polymeric surfactant.

Influence of Topographic and Geological Features on the Seismic Response of the Reef Site in the South China Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Insufficient comprehension of the seismic impact of the reef terrain, geology, and material properties of the reefs in the South China Sea still presents considerable impediments in studying the seismic response of reef engineering sites and assessing ...

Facies variations in gravelly cyclic steps deposited from turbidity currents: Miocene fan delta front deposits compared with a modern active fan delta, central Japan

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
This paper provides a new facies model of gravelly cyclic steps that includes a facies model of lee side and variations deposited from hyperpycnal and surge‐type high‐density turbidity currents. Abstract Gravelly cyclic steps formed by turbidity currents have recently been widely recognised in the geological record.

Utilizing seismic techniques and dynamic field tests for soil dynamic response prediction in clay soils

Magazine of Civil Engineering
When evaluating the dynamic response of soil, shear modulus is an essential parameter to consider. In most cases, the shear modulus is estimated using the shear wave velocity (Vs) of the soil as observed in field geophysical testing.

The influence of syn‐depositional compaction on clastic sediment distribution in river‐dominated deltas: A modelling study

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The impact of syn‐depositional compaction on the sedimentation distribution and the interdependency between different delta areas related to the sediment budget are not fully understood. Our result shows that compaction creates additional accommodation space that leads to more sedimentation in the delta plain, while limiting sediment delivery towards ...

Effects of the 6th September 2002 earthquake: damage amplification in the south-eastern sector of Palermo explained by GIS technology

Annals of Geophysics, 2003
During the 6th September 2002 earthquake the highest damage level in Palermo was observed in the SE sector. This is a recent urbanization area where reinforced concrete structures predominate.

Simulating spatial and temporal evolution of multiple wing cracks around faults in crystalline basement rocks [PDF]

, 2007
Fault zones are structurally highly spatially heterogeneous and hence extremely complex. Observations of fluid flow through fault zones over several scales show that this structural complexity is reflected in the hydrogeological properties of faults ...

Anatomy of modern sedimentary volcanoes produced by gas‐charged groundwater liquefaction, Lake Powell, Hite, Utah: Implications for the recognition and interpretation of ancient sedimentary volcanoes

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Two non‐seismically generated sedimentary volcanoes were excavated on the Colorado River delta in Lake Powell, Utah, USA, in order to characterise the internal structures. Sedimentary volcanoes are commonly employed as tools in palaeoseismic reconstruction, thus it is important to establish criteria to differentiate non‐seismic‐generated sedimentary ...

Effect of intensity of sedimentary cover deformation on hydrocarbon accumulation in Dongying Sag, Bohai Bay Basin, China

Scientific Reports
The developmental phase of the fault deformation zone denotes the zone of weak deformation (with strong concealment) that evolves within the sedimentary cover of the basin.
