Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn the Problem of Stratigraphic Assignment of the Key Seismic Horizons on the East-Arctic Shelf and in the Area of Central Arctic UpliftsLidia Daragan-Sushchova, Lyudmila Grinko, Natalia Petrovskaya, Yuri Daragan-SushchovModern geological and geophysical studies of Central Arctic uplifts area and East-Arctic Shelf has revealed the basic problems in stratigraphic subdivision of sedimentary cover. Basic approach for subdivision of Arctic Ocean sedimentary cover is based on the wave field's characteristics and tracing of regional seismic horizons. Their age identification still depends on general geological ideas. Different correlative models of seismic-stratigraphic … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 16 Jul 2015 · 7,997 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnchor Plates in Two-Layered Cohesion Less SoilsHamed Niroumand, Khairul Anuar Kassim, Ramli NazirProblem statement: During the past few years a great number of experimental model and numerical analysis results on the uplift resistance of anchor plate embedded in homogeneous cohesion less soil has been reported by many researchers. A review of related literature shows that not much research has been done to analyze the performance of anchor plates in layered soils a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,328 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the 16-20 February 2025 Damaging Heavy Rainfall in BotswanaOliver MosesHeavy rainfall that occurred from 16-20 February 2025 over most of Botswana caused, for example, flash flooding, fatalities, and widespread displacement, with the most severe impacts in the Gaborone-Mochudi region in the southeastern parts of the country. The drivers of this event are poorly understood; hence, this study analyses the rainfall characteristics using CHIRPS and station data. It also analyses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 24 Aug 2026 · 1,117 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Cenozoic Erosion Amount Using Monte Carlo Type-Petroleum Systems Modeling of the Hammerfest Basin, Western Barents SeaKrzysztof Jan Zieba, Matthias Daszinnies, Benjamin Emmel et al.The Cenozoic uplift and erosion is often believed to be a major risk factor in hydrocarbon exploration in the Barents Sea causing petroleum redistribution and leakage from filled traps. Therefore, the estimation of erosion amount is an important but often underrepresented task in the basin modeling procedure. The assessment of erosion magnitudes and spatial distribution by geochemical and thermo chronological … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 8,322 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Structure Interaction between Two Adjacent Buildings under Earthquake LoadMahmoud Yahyai, Masoud Mirtaheri, Mehrab Mahoutian et al.In some cases, tall buildings are located in geotechnically unsuitable places, due to their high ratio of height to width; there is risk of uplift and other effects such as overturning and reduction structure serviceability during earthquake. This research is aimed to evaluate the effect of Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) on seismic behavior of two adjacent 32 story buildings such as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 9,352 accessesView PDF Cite
