The expansion of underground structures is important in urban areas with high population density. In most large cities in the world, urban development is spreading along the structures. These structures are generally located at shallow depth; therefore study of shallow tunnels in urban areas is critical for development. During the excavation of tunnels in urban areas, creating the asymmetric se...

[1] Accurate interpretation of magnetotelluric (MT) data in the presence of static shift arising from near-surface inhomogeneities is an unresolved problem in threedimensional (3-D) inversion. While it is well known in 1-D and 2-D studies that static shift can lead to erroneous interpretation, how static shift can influence the result of 3-D inversion is not fully understood and is relevant to ...

Sufficiently shallow vehicles can exploit the diurnal temperature cycle as heat flows in and out of the soil the converter exploits the temperature gr...

Given the effects of steep dips and large lateral variations in seismic velocity beneath Vancouver Island continental shelf, processing travel time inversion are inadequate to obtain a detailed model subsurface. Therefore, full waveform is applied multichannel reflection data high-resolution Tofino fore-arc basin under shelf off margin. Seismic velocities obtained this study help understanding ...
