Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSubsidence Inferred from a Time Lapse Reservoir Study in a Niger Delta Field, NigeriaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Tamunonengiyeofori DagogoProduction-induced subsidence due to compressibility and fluid property changes in a Niger delta field has been investigated using well log and 4D seismic data sets. The objective of the study is to evaluate changes in time lapse seismic attributes due to hydrocarbon production and infer to probable ground subsidence. Petrophysical modeling and analysis of well data revealed that Density (ρ), … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 25 Oct 2016 · 8,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFooting Under Static Loading: Land SubsidenceMochamad Arief Budihardjo, Su Yang, Amin Chegenizadeh, Hamid NikrazLand and footing subsidence caused by groundwater extraction is a source of many problems for buildings and infrastructures. This study aims at extending the knowledge of footing subsidence causing by ground water pumping by considering various well and load conditions. The approach is to use PLAXIS simulation to investigate the influence of well conditions on the subsidence of surface footing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2015 · 7,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSEDIMENTARY FACIES AND DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENTS OF CENOZOIC SEDIMENTARY FORMATIONS CROPPING OUT AT THE CENTRAL PART OF THE DOUALA BASINBachirou Mfayakouo Chavom, Pierre R. Njike Ngaha, Dieudonné L. BitomThe Douala Basin is one of three units of the Cameroonian coastal basin in the Gulf of Guinea, formed from the east-west extension between African and South American plates generated during the opening of South Atlantic in the Early Cretaceous. This basin contains sediments from Lower Cretaceous to present. The Cretaceous depositional environments are well understood whereas there is very … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2015 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater Flow Systems and Their Response to Climate Change: A Need for a Water-System View ApproachJoel J. Carrillo-Rivera, Antonio CardonaProblem statement: The interest in early hydrogeological studies was the aquifer unit, as it is the physical media that stores and permits groundwater transfers from the recharge zone to the discharge zone, making groundwater available to boreholes for water extraction. Approach: Recently, the aquifer concept has been complemented by the groundwater flow system theory, where groundwater may be defined by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Water Resources Management Improving Langat Basin Ecosystem HealthMazlin B. Mokhtar, Mohammad Fawzi Al Ajlouni, Rahma ElfitrieThe ecosystem provides us with all the goods and services that form the base of our economic, social cultural and spiritual life. Good scientific information will be required for managing the environment by using the Ecosystem approach. The groundwater is considered as a possible supplementary of alternative water source, and some factories already started shifting their water source from surface … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of 2D Multi Electrodes Resistivity Imagining for Sinkholes Hazard Assessment along the Eastern Part of the Dead Sea, JordanAbdallah S. Al-Zoubi, Abd El-Rahman A. Abueladas, Rami I. Al-Rzouq et al.Sinkholes and subsidence are natural phenomena can be occurred in shallow geology sediments at different regions in the world. Sinkholes assessment is one of the most difficult near subsurface investigations. Geophysical prospecting is appropriate method to determine environmental and geotechnical problems. 2D multi electrodes resistivity imagining with Wenner-Schulmberge array was conducted within active sinkholes area. The objective of the survey … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Performance of EPS Footing for Lightweight Farm Structure on Peat SoilMohammad Abdullah, Bujang B.K. Huat, Rezuwan Kamaruddin et al.The objective of this research project was to find a potential replacement for the conventional pile foundation principally for peat soil. It is fundamentally meant for lightweight and impermanent agricultural farm structures. Preceding the design and development of the foundation the physical characteristics of the in-situ peat such as; peat depth, soil consolidation, soil compressibility, water table, liquid limit, soil … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,239 accessesView PDFCite
