The prediction of lithology is necessary in all areas of petroleum engineering. This means that to design a project in any branch of petroleum engineering, the lithology must be well known. Support vector machines (SVM’s) use an analytical approach to classification based on statistical learning theory, the principles of structural risk minimization, and empirical risk minimization. In this res...

the mechanical behaviour of rockfill materials and aggregates depends not only on particle size and compaction, but also on their strength and lithological properties. in this research two types of large triaxial and direct shear tests are performed on rockfill materials. this paper compares the stress-strain behaviour of sandstone and andesibasalt materials in triaxial compression tests (3006...

The height/radius ratio of a tumulus and the angle of repose for the materials used in its construction permits one to: predict possible construction methods, calculate the path of geometric evolution before and after the current form and compare degrees of preservation. By way of example a Neolithic tumulus is compared with a modern-day one, both made out of identical lithology. Finally, comme...

In the south area of China, there covers thick soil and flourish vegetation on the top of the rocks, so there is little research on lithology analysis by remote sensing in the south area, and there is also no mature methods on this aspect. Three Gorges are the south area which is thickly covered by soil and flourish vegetation and the lithology analysis is very difficult. Three Gorges possess t...

Abstract. In this paper, we consider a multi-lithology diffusion model used in stratigraphic modelling to simulate large scale transport processes of sediments described as a mixture of L lithologies. This model is a simplified one for which the surficial fluxes are proportional to the slope of the topography and to a lithology fraction with unitary diffusion coefficients. The main unknowns of ...
