Unsupervised Electrofacies Clustering Based on Parameterization of Petrophysical Properties: A Dynamic Programming Approach

Electrofacies using well logs play a vital role in reservoir characterization. Often, they are sorted into clusters according to the self-similarity of input logs and do not capture the known underlying physical process. In this paper, we propose an unsupe ...

The Effects of Planetary and Stellar Parameters on Brittle Lithospheric Thickness

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap

The thicknesss of the brittle lithosphere—the outer portion of a planetary body that fails via fracturing— plays a key role in the geological processes of that body. The properties of both a planet and its host star can influence that thickness, and the po ...

Fault's hydraulic diffusivity enhancement during injection induced fault reactivation: application of pore pressure diffusion inversions to laboratory injection experiments

François Xavier Thibault Passelègue

In situ observations of fluid induced fault slip reactivation, as well as the analysis of induced seismicity have demonstrated the complexity of fluid-fault interactions under geological conditions. If fluid flow commonly reactivates faults in the form of ...

Integration of geological data into the BIM process in infrastructure projects

BIM is a process whose workflow differs significantly from conventional methods. An essential aspect of BIM is the creation of 3D models to which a wide range of information is assigned. This information model is placed at the center of a project as the si ...

Emergence of Cracklike Behavior of Frictional Rupture: The Origin of Stress Drops

Jean-François Molinari, Thibault Didier Roch, Fabian Barras

The process of frictional rupture, i.e., the failure of frictional systems, abounds in the technological and natural world around us, ranging from squealing car brake pads to earthquakes along geological faults. A general framework for understanding and in ...

Experimental seismic performance of a half-scale stone masonry building aggregate

Katrin Beyer, Andrea Penna

This paper focuses on the unidirectional dynamic shake-table test performed on a prototype of a natural stone masonry building aggregate. The half-scale prototype was designed to reproduce the features of existing unreinforced stone masonry building aggreg ...

Dissolution-reprecipitation reaction of dolomite: investigation of self- and tracer-diffusion using SIMS mini-spot and NanoSIMS profiles

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Lukas Baumgartner

Recrystallization of minerals due to fluid infiltration modifies their original chemical and isotopic signature. Such processes are sought after as they give access to timescales of geologic processes, which are commonly quantified using diffusion chronome ...

On the supershear transition in heterogeneous media

Thibault Didier Roch

During an earthquake, frictional rupture fronts mainly propagate at subshear speedalong tectonic faults. However, evidences of supershear propagation have been re-ported in several occasions. Contrarily to subshear, supershear rupture results in highstress ...

Supercritical CO2 injection and residence time in fluid-saturated rocks: Evidence for CO2 and mineral dissolution and effects on rock integrity

Lucas Xan Pimienta, Ke Liu

CO2 injection and storage in geological reservoirs is an attractive prospect for mitigating the anthropogenic production of greenhouse gases and global warming. The technology could lead to mineral precipitation and therefore stable storage over geological ...

Reconstruction and visualization of large-scale volumetric models of neocortical circuits for physically-plausible in silico optical studies

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Juan Bautista Hernando Vieites, Stefan Eilemann, Nicolas Antille

Background: We present a software workflow capable of building large scale, highly detailed and realistic volumetric models of neocortical circuits from the morphological skeletons of their digitally reconstructed neurons. The limitations of the existing a ...
