  • Rifts and Passive Margins

    Structural Architecture, Thermal Regimes, and Petroleum Systems

    by Michal Nemčok ...
    Rifts and passive margins are extremely important for the petroleum industry, as they are areas of high sedimentation and can contain significant oil and gas resources. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of rifts and passive margins as a whole. It synthesises in one volume the existing information devoted to specific aspects of these vitally important hydrocarbon habitats. This ... Read more

  • Orogenesis

    The Making of Mountains

    by Michael R. W. Johnson, Simon L. Harley ...
    Orogenesis, the process of mountain building, occurs when two tectonic plates collide – either forcing material upwards to form mountain belts such as the Alps or Himalayas or causing one plate to be subducted below the other, resulting in volcanic mountain chains such as the Andes. Integrating the approaches of structural geology and metamorphism, this book provides an up-to-date overview of ... Read more

  • Geothermal Engineering

    Fundamentals and Applications

    by Arnold Watson ...
    Series series Energy (R0)
    This book explains the engineering required to bring geothermal resources into use. The book covers specifically engineering aspects that are unique to geothermal engineering, such as measurements in wells and their interpretation, transport of near-boiling water through long pipelines, turbines driven by fluids other than steam, and project economics. The explanations are reinforced by drawing ... Read more

  • Flow in Porous Rocks

    Energy and Environmental Applications

    by Andrew W. Woods ...
    Focusing on simplified models of physical flow processes, this book develops a series of quantitative models to describe the recovery of oil and gas from hydrocarbon reservoirs (including fracking), the physics of geo-sequestration of CO2, geothermal power production, and the potential for underground contaminant dispersal in the long-term storage of nuclear waste. The author approaches these ... Read more

  • Coupled DEM-CFD Analyses of Landslide-Induced Debris Flows

    by Tao Zhao ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book reflects the latest research results in computer modelling of landslide-induced debris flows. The book establishes an understanding of the initiation and propagation mechanisms of landslides by means of numerical simulations, so that mitigation strategies to reduce the long-term losses from landslide hazards can be devised.In this context, the book employs the Discrete Element Method ...

  • Energy and Non-Traditional Security (NTS) in Asia

    Edited by Mely Caballero-Anthony, Youngho Chang, Nur Azha Putra ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Traditional notions of security are premised on the primacy of state security. In relation to energy security, traditional policy thinking has focused on ensuring supply without much emphasis on socioeconomic and environmental impacts. Non-traditional security (NTS) scholars argue that threats to human security have become increasingly prominent since the end of the Cold War, and that it is thus ... Read more

  • Introduction to the Physics of Landslides

    Lecture notes on the dynamics of mass wasting

    by Fabio Vittorio de Blasio ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Landslides represent one of the most destructive natural catastrophes. They can reach extremely long distances and velocities, and are capable of wiping out human communities and settlements. Yet landslides have a creative facet as they contribute to the modification of the landscape. They are the consequence of the gravity pull jointly with the tectonic disturbance of our living planet.Landslides ... Read more

  • Sand Control in Well Construction and Operation

    by Davorin Matanovic, Marin Cikes, Bojan Moslavac ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Produced sand causes a lot of problems. From that reasons sand production must be monitored and kept within acceptable limits. Sand control problems in wells result from improper completion techniques or changes in reservoir properties.The idea is to provide support to the formation to prevent movement under stresses resulting from fluid flow from reservoir to well bore. That means that sand ... Read more
