Abstract: The acquired high-resolution airborne total magnetic intensity data over the West-of-Edfu region, within the southern Egyptian western desert, were consistently and extensively inverted in terms of two- and three-dimensional (2D/3D) magnetic susceptibility layered-earth models to accurately delineate the deep-seated basement structures and configuration. The starting models for all inversion trails were initially built-up using a-priori information gained from the progressive standard qualitative and semiqualitative interpretation results.........

Abstract: Geoelectrical sounding to determine the groundwater prospect in Awgu and its environs has been carried out. The study area lies within longitudes 007025'E and 0070 35'E and latitudes 06002'N and 06017'N with an area extent of 513sqkm. The area is underlain by two lithostratigraphic units, Awgu Shale and Owelli Sandstone. A total of ninety five (95) Vertical Electrical Soundings (VES) was acquired employing the Schlumberger electrode array configuration, with a maximum electrode separation ranging from 700m to 800m. Data analysis was done using a computer program RESOUND to generate the layer apparent resistivity, thickness and depth. A maximum of eight (8) layer resistivity were generated in each sounding point with a depth range of 50m to 356m...........

Abstract: A great number of studies on the relationship between solar activity and various terrestrial phenomena, both in the climatic and geophysical fields, have been carried out over several decades. In the present work we analyse the shorter oscillations of the solar activity such as the ones recognized in the climatic and oceanographic oscillations, for which, as it is known, longer series of observations are unavailable. Specially we analyse both the sunspot series (Wolf relative number series) considered an index of solar activity and observed since 1700 and the series of the mean sea level variation of the longest ones available in the word and relative to three oceanographic stations in Poland (Swinoujscie)...........

Abstract: Bengkulu Province is a region located on the a subduction zone in the West coast of Sumatra. It's a highly prone and risk of earthquakes. One of the important effects of earthquakes is Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA). This value is needed to determine the strength of the foundation of the building to be constructed. This article presents comparisons among the three PGA models in Bengkulu province, Indonesia. Research on the three models of PGA in the first generation, namely; Esteva, Pathwardan and Crouse have been tested and compared on the Bengkulu area based on historical data of earthquakes with magnitude, M ≥ 4 SR and hypocenter, H ≤ 100 km that occurred in 1974 - 2014............

: | 10.9790/0990-0501013745 |
Abstract: The mineral belts of Nigeria include both Pan African structures (N-S, NNE-SSW, ENE-WSW), well preserved in the Western Province of the Nigeria basement complex and the Mesozoic to Early Cenozoic structures (NE-SW and ENE-WSW), less well defined in the Eastern Province of the Nigeria basement. Analyses of these belts revealed that the stress pattern of the Nigerian landmass has changed appreciably from N-S and NNE-SSW trend to NE-SW and ENE-WSW trend over a period of time from Pan African to Early Cenozoic. These changes have led to the growth of intraplate tensional stresses...........

Abstract: Where would be our knowledge about early history of earth without zircon? Zircon, tiny but timely are able to provide a picture of evolution of crust and mantle. Zircon due to its robust characteristic has been long recognized as a suitable candidate playing a key role in crustal evolution studies as a best geochronometers. Recent development in analytical techniques such as high precision mass spectrometry and verity of microscopic imaging methods permits investigation of complex grain at high spatial resolution. Coupled measurement of the isotopes of oxygen and hafnium provide insight into the crust differentiation and the processes involved in crustal evolution. Such information from zircon is an invaluable help to geochemist and other earthscientist to unravel even more complex geological system.

Abstract: Twelve representative marble samples were collected from Jakura and environs and tested for specific gravity, density, compressive strength, porosity, flexural strength, hardness water absorption, soundness or durability and Los Angeles Abrasion to ensure its suitability for use in the production of tiles. The flexural strength, hardness and compressive strength shows its high resistance to crushing and bending effects while the specific gravity and density values proves its ability to bear the impact of the objects that will be placed on it. The soundness and water absorption values makes them suitable for flooring and outdoor cladding due to its resistance to weathering and thawing because of its low rate of water absorption.

Abstract: There has been varying conclusions on the rank of coal a Maiganga over the years. This paper examined the Maiganga coal with the aim of establishing its actual rank. Proximate analysis was undertaken on some samples from Maiganga coal mine. The analysis determined the percentage moisture content, volatile matter, fixed carbon, ash content, and calorific value. Although not directly relevant for the determination of the rank of coal, the total sulfur of the coals were evaluated also. The Maiganga A1 and Maiganga A2 samples were from the first seam. Maiganga B1 and Maiganga B2 were collected from seam two of the coal deposit............

Abstract: July oilfield is a major normal fault–bounded structural block. It is a multi-reservoir oilfield located in the central part of the Gulf of Suez. July Member sandstone (Lower Rudeis) is the main reservoir and it was deposited during the Early Miocene (Burdigalian). July Member sandstone has been studied for the interpretation of its depositional environment on the basis of the four defining parameters of: facies; lithology, sedimentary structures, fossil contents and geometry. Petrographic studies of the cored intervals and ditch cuttings description of the four wells that were used in this study have revealed that July Member sandstone has the signatures of a shallow marine environment............

Abstract: Because the reservoir simulation models arising from real field may consist of hundreds of thousands or millions of grid blocks, traditional reservoir simulators can be quite time-consuming. This also led to computational cost of production optimization and history matching process of closed-loop reservoir management be greatly increased. Improving reservoir simulation speed is the urgent problem to be solved. In this paper, the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) model order reduction method is applied in reservoir numerical simulation. First of all, in the training process, full order reservoir simulator is run to get snapshots and the POD base matrix is constructed..............
