The regional engineering geological conditions and geological hazard evaluation is the important part of realizing the railway geological selection, However, the accuracy of the evaluation largely depends on the reliability of basic information and reasonable mathematical model. Remote sensing provides reliable geological information and accurately reflects the geological conditions along the r...

Three-dimensional (3D) modelling of geological body is an important issue of 3D GIS and 3D Geosciences Modelling, and one of the key technologies of digital mine. GTP model and its components are introduced in this paper. According to the relations between chronolith and rock attribute comprehensively, the modelling region, system, series, group and rock characteristics(RC) are regard as the sc...

The Konjsko tunnel is an integral part of the Zagreb-Split-Dubrovnik highway, section Prgomet-Dugopolje. It consists of two tunnel tubes having 1326.0 and 1133.8 meters in length. The greatest overburden amounts to 150 m. This paper presents geotechnical measurement results and back numerical analyses. Back numerical analyses in combination with geotechnical measurements enable safer and more r...

One of the most important subjects in relation of water resources quality in the many of river is the chemical composition of waters and conservation of water quality in the watershed. Geological formations in any region of the earth are the main surface and foundation that water flows on the bed and strata of formation, which in fact they affect their characteristics on water quality as positi...
