Buoyant Hydraulic Fractures: How they Emerge, Grow, and get Arrested

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri, Carlo Peruzzo, Dmitriy Garagash

Most anthropogenic applications of hydraulic fracturing treatments are performed in sedimentary basins. In these geological formations, the minimum compressive stress is usually horizontal and increases with depth. As a result, hydraulic fractures grow alo ...

Physical characterization of fault rocks within the Opalinus Clay formation

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Christophe Nussbaum, Luis Felipe Orellana Espinoza

Near-surface disposal of radioactive waste in shales is a promising option to safeguard the population and environment. However, natural faults intersecting these geological formations can potentially affect the long-term isolation of the repositories. Thi ...

Highly localized azimuthal measurements in the CROCUS reactor towards the validaiton of high-fidelity neutronics codes

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Pavel Frajtag, Fanny Vitullo

Highly localized in-core measurements are necessary for the validation of neutron transport calculations with high spatial resolution. In the present work, a miniature neutron detector developed at EPFL in collaboration with PSI was used to carry out a set ...

Rock strength properties of granitic rocks in Yosemite Valley, Yosemite National Park, California

Federica Sandrone, Michel Jaboyedoff

Yosemite National Park, located in the central part of California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, is a glacially carved landscape filled with iconic rock formations such as Cathedral Peak, El Capitan, and Half Dome. Igneous rocks, consisting primarily of variat ...

Emergence of self-affine surfaces during adhesive wear

Jean-François Molinari, Enrico Milanese, Ramin Aghababaei, Tobias Brink

Friction and wear depend critically on surface roughness and its evolution with time. An accurate control of roughness is essential to the performance and durability of virtually all engineering applications. At geological scales, roughness along tectonic ...

SAT-Based Area Recovery in Structural Technology Mapping

Bruno Schmitt Antunes

This paper proposes a fast SAT-based algorithm for recovering area applicable to an already technology mapped circuit. The algorithm considers a sequence of relatively small overlapping regions, called windows, in a mapped network and tries to improve the ...

The effects of visual realism, spatial abilities, and competition on performance in map-based route learning in men

Rebecca Francelet

We report on how visual realism might influence map-based route learning performance in a controlled laboratory experiment with 104 male participants in a competitive context. Using animations of a dot moving through routes of interest, we find that partic ...

On the swelling behavior of shallow Opalinus Clay shale

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleonora Crisci

The Opalinus Clay shale is the selected geological formation for the construction of a deep geological repository in Switzerland. The geomaterial will experience cyclic drying and wetting paths during different stages of the repository lifetime. The shale, ...
