Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Weathering Layer Characteristics over OPL-135 in the Western Part of the Niger Delta Basin, South-South, NigeriaOkechukwu Frank Adizua, Adekunle Oyemade Sofolabo, Olomu Ivory Obi-EgbediAn up-hole seismic refraction survey was carried out in OPL-135 in the Western part of the Niger Delta Basin, (SS) Nigeria. A total of thirty seven (37) up-hole locations in a (4.0×3.750) km grid configuration were drilled and logged over the prospect. The focal objective for the study was to assess the weathering layer characteristics over the prospect, specifically, to … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2021 · 11,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPORE-PRESSURE PREDICTION FROM SEIMIC DATA IN PARTS OF THE ONSHORE NIGER DELTA SEDIMENTARY BASINEmujakporue Omokenu GodwinPore pressure prediction in parts of the Onshore Niger Delta Sedimentary Basin using seismic reflection data has been carried out. The Bower’s technique of velocity-to-pore pressure transform was adopted. The seismic velocities were derived from the seismic data using layer cake velocity model and were later compared with the available sonic logs velocities obtained from the area. Parameters in the … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 20 Mar 2014 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractTurbulent-Fluid-Based Simulation of Dynamic Liquefaction Using Large Deformation Analysis of Solid PhaseRohollah TaslimianTo accurately simulate the cyclic liquefaction phenomenon, it is necessary to establish a well-defined coupling between the solid particles and the high-velocity percolating pore fluid. For this purpose, the existing literature extensively examines large deformation liquefaction analyses for the solid phase, regardless of the fluid flow nonlinearity. On the other hand, the transient fluid pressure gradient governed by the turbulence … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 22 Feb 2024 · 6,015 accessesView PDFCite

The highway structure, as the mine of vibration, includes common layers and also special materials with dumping properties. It is the geomesh reducing the crack creation caused by fatigue, the tension strength increase and excess settlement The stress concentration in the bitumen structure reduces and separates into … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 23 Nov 2017 · 7,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShort Period Spectral Acceleration Zonation of Tehran a Comparison between Slip and Activity Rates Data’sHadi Jarahi, Noushin Naraghiaraghi, Malihe NadalianThis study presents seismic hazard analysis and provides spectral iso acceleration maps based on slip rate (SR) and also activity rate (AR) of the faults. Nowadays modern seismic design of structures is complicated so special attention to the nature of the seismicity in active seismic zones like Tehran is required. Many studies, based on seismic hazard analysis have been done … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2016 · 8,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDOWNHOLE SEISMIC REFRACTION SURVEY OF WEATHERED LAYER CHARACTERISTICS IN ESCRAVOS, NIGERIAOchuko AnomohanranThe problem of datum correction in seismic surveys and the failures associated with civil engineering structures with specific reference to roads and buildings has been attributed to lack of understanding of the soil structure among others. This is why this survey on downhole seismic refraction was conducted from nine borehole locations in Escravos, Nigeria to determine the weathered layer characteristics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Dec 2013 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Refraction Method: A Technique for Determining the Thickness of Stratified SubstratumOchuko AnomohanranThe seismic refraction survey is a very important geophysical technique used in the investigation of subsurface characteristics. This is why this study was carried out to emphasize the ability of the seismic refraction method in determining the thickness of stratified layers of soil and rock. The results obtained are generalized expressions that relate travel time, offset distance, velocity and thickness … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 7,684 accessesView PDFCite
