ISBN:
Category : Mathematical analysis
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
In-house and contractual research was conducted on the relationships between mechanical (strength) properties of rock and soil material and their electrical properties. A theoretical study involved the quantum electromagnetic and elastic interactions of crystals and solids. Laboratory and field investigations were made of the porosity and surface crack networks of large masses of quarry rocks, which govern their conductivity and permittivity. Thermal and mechanical stressing of rocks were analyzed. Electrical parameters of deep mine rocks were measured in-situ with emphasis on frequency/conductivity relationships. Direct mapping of rock strength as a function of electrical resistivity was investigated in the field. A three-dimensional modeling program was conducted in the laboratory. Field measurements of dynamic electrical conductivity of various earth materials were made under conditions of a rapid stress generated by high explosive setonations. Correlations demonstrated by this geophysical and geological research can be useful in prediction or evaluation of nuclear weapon shock effects on military installations.

Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering
Author: Jay Ameratunga
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 8132226291
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

Active Geophysical Monitoring
Author:
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080914462
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 578
Book Description
Active geophysical monitoring is an important new method for studying time-evolving structures and states in the tectonically active Earth's lithosphere. It is based on repeated time-lapse observations and interpretation of rock-induced changes in geophysical fields periodically excited by controlled sources. In this book, the results of strategic systematic development and the application of new technologies for active geophysical monitoring are presented. The authors demonstrate that active monitoring may drastically change solid Earth geophysics, through the acquisition of substantially new information, based on high accuracy and real-time observations. Active monitoring also provides new means for disaster mitigation, in conjunction with substantial international and interdisciplinary cooperation. Introduction of a new concept Most experienced authors in the field Comprehensiveness
