  1. 1. Enhancing Geophysical Applications with Electrical Resistivity Tomography Inversion : Uncovering the mysteries that lies beneath us

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Anton Morian; [2023]
    Keywords : Resistivity inversion; Filtering; 3D visualisation;

    Abstract : Geophysical methods have been widely used to investigate the subsurface in various ap-plications, such as mineral exploration, geotechnical and environmental studies. Among these methods, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has gained popularity due to its non-invasive and high-resolution capability in mapping subsurface resistivity variations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigating the potential of systematic optical petrography in a geometallurgical context : A case study on boulder characterization from Rajapalot property, Finland

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Annie Björk; [2023]
    Keywords : Petrography; optical microscopy; scanning electron microscopy; geometallurgy; mining value chain; Peräpohja belt;

    Abstract : Geometallurgy describes a holistic approach to mining (integrating geological, metallurgical, geotechnical, environmental, and more parameters) with the goal to improve the efficiency and sustainability of a mining operation. The potential of systematic optical petrography in a geometallurgical context was investigated in this study, as well as how petrography may be useful across disciplines in several blocks of the mining value chain.

  3. 3. Towards BIM implementation for Geotechnical projects

    University essay from

    Author : Armin Alaei; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Despite significant changes in the construction industry due to the digital revolution, geotechnical engineering has been slower to adopt novel technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM). While the benefits of BIM in construction management and planning are recognized, its potential for geotechnical projects is less understood. READ MORE

  4. 4. Analysis of economic benefits of geotechnical research - indicative basis

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Daniel Skoglund; [2023]
    Keywords : BiG; nytta; ekonomisk nytta; effekter; utvärderingsmetodik; mätning; FoI-resultat; Trafikverket; geoteknik; nyckeltal; forskning; innovation.;

    Abstract : Trafikverket bedriver Forskning och Innovation (FoI) i syfte att etablera ny kunskap, samt uppmuntra innovativa lösningar som bidrar till att nå det övergripande transportpolitiska målet, om ett samhällsekonomiskt och hållbart transportsystem för medborgare och näringsliv i hela landet. Vid utvärdering av FoI-projekt är ett delmoment att bedöma "ekonomisk nytta". READ MORE

  5. 5. The effect of taper on pile shaft bearing capacity : Finite element analysis of a tapered wooden pile in sulfate soil

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Jonathan Lindström; [2023]
    Keywords : Pile; taper; timber piles; wooden piles; sulphide soil; sulfate soil; tapered piles;

    Abstract : he usage of piles, especially wooden piles, have been going on for thousands of years in construction and foundation reinforcements. Sometimes this was done temporary like the Romans who used wooden piles to construct bridges in Britain, or more permanently like the piles upon which the floating city of Venice stands. READ MORE
