1. AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE METHOD USED FOR CONTROLLING CRACKS IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS
Background of the study
Buildings and engineering structures in the modern world are complicated, and as a result, they need to be supervised by architects, structural engineers, quantity surveyors, and excellent contractors in order to ensure careful p...
2. MODELING FOR INVERSION IN EXPLORATION GEOPHYSICS
Introduction and Background
Understanding the physics of our surrounding has driven science and technology for a long time and while some part of the earth is well know and understood, its subsurface is mostly unknown. The subsurface is one of today’s most important challenges. Fi...
3. DEVELOPMENT OF MODELS FOR RATING SEISMIC ACTIVITIES USING RADIATED ENERGY OF EARTHQUAKES
Earthquakes
An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. The energy released during an earthquake could be in the form of elastic strain energy, gravitational potential energy or chemical energy. Of all t...
4. 3D SEISMIC INTERPRETATION OF THE KB FIELD, OFFSHORE, NIGER DELTA BASIN, SOUTHERN NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
Niger Delta Basin is one of the most prolific oil producing basins in the world made up of complex structural features which if not well understood may hinder maximum exploitation of hydrocarbon. Therefore, understanding the detailed structural relationships between fault netwo...
5. HYDROCARBON CHARACTERIZATION AND PROSPECT IDENTIFICATION OF YZ FIELD, NIGER DELTA
Introduction
The YZ field is located within the Niger Delta Basin, onshore Niger Delta Nigeria (Figure 1.1). Major focus in recent time, in hydrocarbon exploration has been moved towards the renewal of older fields and the identification of new prospects from these old fields (Emina et...
