The longitudinal treatment and structure of plate tectonics in introductory college-level physical geology textbooks : 1974-2005

, 2005
The objective of this study was to determine if trends were present in the longitudinal treatment of concepts of plate tectonics in introductory college-level physical geology textbooks. In addition, a method was designed to convey the structure of these

Major engineering breakthrough of Well XA‐1, the deepest ten‐thousand‐meter well in a global sedimentary basin

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Well XA‐1, completed at a true vertical depth of 11 156 m in the Shawan Sag of the Junggar Basin, is the deepest predominantly near‐vertical well drilled in a sedimentary basin. The figure shows the basin's tectonic framework and well location (a), a structural cross‐section spanning the Shawan Sag and adjacent uplifts (b), and the stratigraphic column

Aiming for Universal Tectonics from Global Tectonics [PDF]

現在の地球は，多様な相の構成物が，層をなし，圏として相互作用をしている。地球が，このような現状に至るまでの変遷史を普遍化したものが，全地球テクトニクスとなる。さらに抽象化した普遍的テクトニクスとして，宇宙のすべての天体に適用可能なものも必要になるだろう。現在えられている素材を集めて検討し，普遍的テクトニクスへの道筋を考えていく。The present Earth layers the phases of various constituents and interacted with them ...

World's fastest 10 000‐m breakthrough: The XY‐22 well redefines deep‐earth access in the Tarim Basin

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Tarim Basin in northwestern China hosts one of the world's deepest petroleum systems, exemplified by the XY‐22 ultra‐deep well (bottom depth: 11 116 m; ~220°C, ~145 MPa). This study integrates tectonic mapping, geological cross‐sections, ultraviolet fluorescence microscopy, and optical photothermal infrared (OPTIR) spectroscopy to characterize ...

Modeling and monitoring injectivity evolution during cold CO2 injection with field evidence from aquistore carbon capture and storage operations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This work integrates 5 years of field data from the Aquistore CCS project with a non‐isothermal THM modeling framework to explain how cold CO2 injection alters injectivity over time. The study shows that sustained cooling near the wellbore reduces effective stresses, promotes tensile micro‑cracking, and leads to semi‑reversible permeability enhancement

Numerical research on anti‐dislocation measures design of deep‐buried tunnels in an anisotropic rock mass area

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper conducts a numerical simulation study on the construction of a deep‐buried tunnel in an anisotropic stratum area. A statistical analysis of the effects of two anti‐faulting design measures, namely, a conventional design and an articulated design, is carried out, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the anti‐faulting structures ...
