Sedimentary Measurement of Cretaceous Time

Facies, sedimentary environments and sequence stratigraphy of Cretaceous deposits in the northwest of Azerbaijan, Iran

The Cretaceous deposits in Morakan, located in the northeast of Khoy, a town in western Azerbaijan province, Iran, are primarily made up of carbonate rocks. These deposits, which are of 717 meters thick, lie on the clastic facies of Jurassic and are covered with beneath the pelagic beds of the Upper Cretaceous. To investigate the facies, sedimentary environment and sequential stratigraphy of th...

Upper Cretaceous Continental Vertebrate Assemblages from Metaliferi Sedimentary Area: Systematics, Paleoecology and Paleobiogeography

Measurement and Prediction of Time-independent and Time-dependent Rheological Behavior of Waxy Crude Oil

Wax deposition phenomenon changes the rheological behavior of waxy crude oil completely. In the current work, the rheological time-dependent and time-independent behaviors of waxy crude oil samples are studied and flow curve and compliance function are measured for the oil samples with various wax contents at different temperatures. A decrease in temperature and an increase in wax content lead ...

Description of Time-dependent Deformation in Sedimentary Rocks

This paper deals with formulation of constitutive relations describing the time-dependent deformation in sedimentary rocks. In contrast to classical viscoplasticity, the creep effects are attributed here to a progressive evolution of material microstructure. First, an internal variable monitoring the degradation process is introduced followed by presentation of a general framework of chemo-plas...
