Coupled semi‐analytical approach of CO2 injection induced caprock deflection

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Li

This study focuses on a specific problem related to the caprock deformation induced by the in-jection of CO2 at depth. The adopted methodology includes the development of a mathematical model that incorporates the deformable behaviour of storage media and ...

Fusao Oka, Akira Murakami, Ryosuke Uzuoka, Sayuri Kimoto2014

This paper investigates the performance of tunnel boring machines (TBMs) in rock-soil mixed-face ground based on TBM tunneling projects in Singapore. Currently several methods are available to estimate TBM tunneling performance in homogenous rock or soil. ...

Evaluation of EPB TBM performance in mixed ground conditions

Jian Zhao, Ákos Tóth

This paper investigates the performance of Earth Pressure Balance Tunnel Boring Machines (EPM TBMs) in rock-soil interface mixed-face ground based on the Deep Tunnel Sewerage System project in Singapore. Several methods are available to estimate TBM tunnel ...

Coupled semi-analytical solution for CO2 injection-induced surface uplift and caprock deflection

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Li

This study focuses on a specific problem related to the surface uplift induced by the injection of CO2 at depth. The adopted methodology includes the development of a mathematical model that incorporates the deformable behaviour of storage media and the fl ...

Numerical Ecology with R

François Gillet, Daniel Borcard

Numerical Ecology with R provides a long-awaited bridge between a textbook in Numerical Ecology and the implementation of this discipline in the R language. After short theoretical overviews, the authors accompany the users through the exploration of the m ...

Geological characterization of cataclastic rock samples using medical X-ray computerized tomography

Pierre Guillaume Christe

Technical difficulties associated with tunnelling operations in tectonized geological settings are frequently encountered. They may include instantaneous and delayed cavity convergence, sudden collapse of walls or roof of a gallery, outpouring of fault-fil ...

A study of the dynamics of saturated granular assemblages and its implications for transport, stress propagation and failure in marine sediments

Nicolas Le Dantec

The subject of small-scale marine sediment mechanics is an area of active research, motivated by its key role in beach and shelf processes. Much of the existing small-scale work has focused on two-phase flows and particle behavior at the sediment interface ...

Using geotypes for landslide hazard assessment and mapping: a coupled field and GIS-based method

Aurèle Parriaux, Séverine Bilgot

Switzerland is exceptionally subjected to landslides; indeed, about 10% of its area is considered as unstable. Making this observation, its Department of the Environment (BAFU) introduces in 1997 a method to realize landslide hazard maps. It is routinely u ...

Méthodologie de diagnostic des laves torrentielles sur un bassin versant alpin

Eric Bardou

The proposed methodology is based on the developments of five significant points. These developments were necessary in order to give a balanced diagnosis. They represent however only one stage towards a better comprehension of the arising problem. The meth ...
