Liquid–solid suspension theory with reference to possible applications in geologyBasin Research - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 591-602 - 2010
Renzo Di Felice
ABSTRACTThe first part of this paper provides an overview of the state of the art of the hydrodynamics of liquid suspensions of solid particles. It is shown that knowledge of the suspension Archimedes number is sufficient to estimate the voidage–velocity parameters for suspensions of solids possessing homogenous characteristics, thereby completely defining the syst...... hiện toàn bộ
Fluvial response to sea‐level changes: a quantitative analogue, experimental approachBasin Research - Tập 13 Số 3 - Trang 269-292 - 2001
M. W. I. M. Van Heijst, George Postma
ABSTRACT Quantitative evaluation of fluvial response to allogenic controls is crucial for further progress in understanding the stratigraphic record in terms of processes that control landscape evolution. For instance, without quantitative insight into time lags that are known to exist between sea‐level change and fluvial response, there is no way to relate fluvial s...... hiện toàn bộ
The effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere and the evolution of foreland basinsBasin Research - Tập 4 Số 3-4 - Trang 169-178 - 1992
A. B. Watts
AbstractThe elastic thickness of the continental lithosphere is strongly ‘bi‐modal’. Foreland basins reflect this bi‐modality with narrow, deep basins (e.g. Apennines) and wide, shallow ones (e.g. Ganges). The bi‐modal distribution cannot be explained by thermal models which describe the relationship between elastic thickness and plate age in the oceans, suggesting...... hiện toàn bộ
3D seismic interpretation of slump complexes: examples from the continental margin of IsraelBasin Research - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 83-108 - 2005
Jose Frey Martinez, Joe Cartwright, Ben Hall
AbstractThis paper uses three‐dimensional (3D) seismic data from the continental margin of Israel (Eastern Mediterranean) to describe a series of slump deposits within the Pliocene and Holocene succession. These slumps are linked to the dynamics of subsidence and deformation of the transform margin of the eastern Mediterranean. Repeated slope failure occurred durin...... hiện toàn bộ
Fluid dynamics and subsurface sediment mobilization processes: an overview from Southeast CaribbeanBasin Research - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 361-379 - 2010
Éric Deville, Sophie‐Hélène Guerlais, Siegfried Lallemant, F. Schneider
ABSTRACTThis paper discusses the origin and the dynamics of subsurface sediment mobilization processes in tectonically mobile regions and shale‐rich environment. This is illustrated by the example of Trinidad and the south of the Barbados prism. In this area of the southeast Caribbean, geophysical acquisitions have spectacularly shown the widespread development of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Subsurface sediment remobilization and fluid flow in sedimentary basins: an overviewBasin Research - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 342-360 - 2010
Mads Huuse, Christopher Jackson, Pieter Van Rensbergen, Richard J. Davies, Peter B. Flemings, Richard J. Dixon
ABSTRACTSubsurface sediment remobilization and fluid flow processes and their products are increasingly being recognized as significant dynamic components of sedimentary basins. The geological structures formed by these processes have traditionally been grouped into mud volcano systems, fluid flow pipes and sandstone intrusion complexes. But the boundaries between ...... hiện toàn bộ
