Prediction of rock strength parameters for an Iranian oil field using neuro-fuzzy method
Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and internal friction coefficient (µ) are the most important strength parameters of rock. They could be determined either by laboratory tests or from empirical correlations. The laboratory analysis sometimes is not possible for many reasons. On the other hand, Due to changes in rock compositions and properties, none of the correlations could be applied as an ...
متن کاملShear Strength of Rock Joints Based on Quantified Surface Description
One of the primary objectives of this work is to better understand the frictional behavior of joints under shear loads, including the creation of damage zones. Discontinuities have an important influence on the deformational behavior of rock systems. The choice of a general criterion to determine the shear strength of rough rock joints is a general problem that has been investigated for many ye...
متن کاملEffect of freeze-thaw cycle on strength and rock strength parameters (A Lushan sandstone case study)
In an era of continued economic development around the globe, numerous rock-related projects including mining and gas/oil exploration are undertaken in regions with cold climates. Winters in the Iranian western and northwestern provinces are characterized by a high precipitation rate and a cold weather. Under such conditions, rocks are exposed to long freezing periods and several freeze-thaw (F...
متن کاملApplication of Schmidt rebound number for estimating rock strength under specific geological conditions
A literature review revealed that most of the empirical equations introduced for determination of the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks based on the Schmidt hammer rebound number (N) are not sufficiently reliable mostly due to the relatively low coefficient of correlations. This is attributed to the fact that in most cases one formula is used for all types of rocks, altho...
متن کاملEstimating Bivariate Tail: a copula based approach
This paper deals with the problem of estimating the tail of a bivariate distribution function. To this end we develop a general extension of the POT (PeaksOver-Threshold) method, mainly based on a two-dimensional version of the Pickands-Balkema-de Haan Theorem. We introduce a new parameter that describes the nature of the tail dependence, and we provide a way to estimate it. We construct a two-...
