  • Faults and Joints
    133 JOINTS Joints (also termed extensional fractures) are planes of separation on which no or undetectable shear displacement has taken place. The two walls of the resulting tiny opening typically remain in tight (matching) contact. Joints may result from regional tectonics (i.e. the compressive stresses in front of a mountain belt), folding (due to curvature of bedding), faulting, or internal stress release during uplift or cooling. They often form under high fluid pressure (i.e. low effective stress), perpendicular to the smallest principal stress. The aperture of a joint is the space between its two walls measured perpendicularly to the mean plane. Apertures can be open (resulting in permeability enhancement) or occluded by mineral cement (resulting in permeability reduction). A joint with a large aperture (> few mm) is a fissure. The mechanical layer thickness of the deforming rock controls joint growth. If present in sufficient number, open joints may provide adequate porosity and permeability such that an otherwise impermeable rock may become a productive fractured reservoir. In quarrying, the largest block size depends on joint frequency; abundant fractures are desirable for quarrying crushed rock and gravel. Joint sets and systems Joints are ubiquitous features of rock exposures and often form families of straight to curviplanar fractures typically perpendicular to the layer boundaries in sedimentary rocks. A set is a group of joints with similar orientation and morphology. Several sets usually occur at the same place with no apparent interaction, giving exposures a blocky or fragmented appearance. Two or more sets of joints present together in an exposure compose a joint system.

Paulding, Jr. Submitted to the Department of Geology and Geophysics February 9, 1965 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Photoelastic analysis of several two-crack arrays pre- dicts that compressive fracture is initiated at cracks oriented in a particular en schelon manner. Observation of partially-fractured samples of Westerly granite, obtained during uniaxial and confined compression tests by stopping the fracture process, indicate that fracture is initiated by en echelon arrays of biotite grains and pre-existing, trans-granular, cracks.

Wimsatt, The National Council On The Aging, Senior Environmental Employment Program NATIONAL EXPOSURE RESEARCH LABORATORY OFFICE OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY CINCINNATI, OHIO 45268 415.3 - 1 METHOD 415.3 DETERMINATION OF TOTAL ORGANIC CARBON AND SPECIFIC UV ABSORBANCE AT 254 nm IN SOURCE WATER AND DRINKING WATER 1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION 1.1 This method provides procedures for the determination of total organic carbon (TOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and UV absorption at 254 nm (UVA) in source waters and drinking waters. The DOC and UVA determinations are used in the calculation of the Specific UV Absorbance (SUVA). For TOC and DOC analysis, the sample is acidified and the inorganic carbon (IC) is removed prior to analysis for organic carbon (OC) content using a TOC instrument system. The measurements of TOC and DOC are based on calibration with potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) standards. This method is not intended for use in the analysis of treated or untreated industrial wastewater discharges as those wastewater samples may damage or contaminate the instrument system(s). 1.2 The three (3) day, pooled organic carbon detection limit (OCDL) is based on the detection limit (DL) calculation.1 It is a statistical determination of precision, and may be below the level of quantitation.

  • Amplitude Inversion of Fast and Slow Converted Waves for Fracture Characterization of the Montney Formation in Pouce Coupe Field, Alberta, Canada
    AMPLITUDE INVERSION OF FAST AND SLOW CONVERTED WAVES FOR FRACTURE CHARACTERIZATION OF THE MONTNEY FORMATION IN POUCE COUPE FIELD, ALBERTA, CANADA by Tyler L. MacFarlane c Copyright by Tyler L. MacFarlane, 2014 All Rights Reserved A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Geo- physics). Golden, Colorado Date Signed: Tyler L. MacFarlane Signed: Dr. Thomas L. Davis Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date Signed: Dr. Terence K. Young Professor and Head Department of Geophysics ii ABSTRACT The Montney Formation of western Canada is one of the largest economically viable gas resource plays in North America with reserves of 449TCF. As an unconventional tight gas play, the well development costs are high due to the hydraulic stimulations necessary for economic success. The Pouce Coupe research project is a multidisciplinary collaboration between the Reservoir Characterization Project (RCP) and Talisman Energy Inc. with the objective of understanding the reservoir to enable the optimization of well placement and completion design. The work in this thesis focuses on identifying the natural fractures in the reservoir that act as the delivery systems for hydrocarbon flow to the wellbore. Characterization of the Montney Formation at Pouce Coupe is based on time-lapse mul- ticomponent seismic surveys that were acquired before and after the hydraulic stimulation of two horizontal wells. Since shear-wave velocities and amplitudes of the PS-waves are known to be sensitive to near-vertical fractures, I utilize isotropic simultaneous seismic in- versions on azimuthally-sectored PS1 and PS2 data sets to obtain measurements of the fast and slow shear-velocities.

  • From the Outside, You Can't See Any Difference Between a Run-Flat Tire
    FEATURE Few 10 Tech Drive wer blowouts Run-Flats Offer Convenience and Peace of Mind. If you had X-ray vision, you could see that the sidewall on a 3 Series run-flat is different from that of a conventional tire. Few things are more frightening to a driver than a blowout because several bad things start happening all at once. A trained, experienced driver may be able to bring his or her vehicle to a safe stop after a blowout. However, many drivers just hang on and hope for the best, or, worse, slam on the brakes. Even for an experienced driver, a blowout while driving on a highway with other vehicles nearby is scary. “Run-flat” tires, which still support the car and provide control even when air pressure is lost, greatly reduce the danger of a blowout. Although run-flats have been available for many years, interest in these tires has surged recently. BMW has offered run-flat tires as standard or optional equipment on selected models since the late 1990s. Equipped with run-flats, a BMW can be driven some distance even though the tire has no air in it. However, the maximum recommended speed for a run-flat without air is 50 mph. So, your customer can drive to your shop for tire replace - ment, just not at high speed. In addition to their other benefits, run-flats eliminate the hassle and potential risk of pulling onto the shoulder of a busy highway to replace a flat tire. These tires even offer a convenience benefit, freeing up trunk space because a spare tire and jack are not necessary with run-flats.
