In this research, the effects of a sedimentary basin, environmental conditions, and the passage of time were investigated on consolidation processes and engineering characteristics of fine-grained soils in Kerman city. For this purpose, the natural consolidation curves of soil samples extracted from different locations of Kerman city were compared with the Kerman city intrinsic consolidation li...

The simulation of sedimentary basins aims at reconstructing its historical evolution in order to provide quantitative predictions about phenomena leading to hydrocarbon accumulations. The kernel of this simulation is the numerical solution of a complex system of partial differential equations of mixed parabolic-hyperbolic type. A discretisation and linearisation of this system leads to large il...

The Kordkanlo Basin, one of the Atrak sub-basins, located in the northeastern of the Ghoochan city, the Khorasan Razavi Province; is situated in Kopet Dagh geologic zone. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the morphotectonic effects on the drainage network of the basin, using morphometric indicators. In this research, morphometric quantitative indicators of hypsometric integral ...

[1] A high-resolution stratigraphic image of a flume-generated deposit was scaled up to sedimentary basin dimensions where a natural log hydraulic conductivity (ln(K)) was assigned to each pixel on the basis of gray scale and conductivity end-members. The synthetic ln(K) map has mean, variance, and frequency distributions that are comparable to a natural alluvial fan deposit. A geostatistical a...

[1] Extension of the continental lithosphere leads to the formation of rift basins and ultimately may create passive continental margins. The mechanisms that operate during the early stage of crustal extension are still intensely debated. We present the results from coincident multichannel seismic and wide-angle seismic profiles that transect across the northern Tyrrhenian Sea Basin. The profil...

in this study, calcareous nannofossils at the boundary between tirgan and sarcheshmeh formations at taherabad and mozduran sections have been studied. these sections are located in the eastern kopet-dagh basin. 22 nannoplankton species of 14 genera in taherabad section and 20 species of 14 genera in mozduran section were identified. according to the first occurrence of index species and fossil ...
