always mazandaran province had been exposed to development and changes because of location in coastline of the caspian sea and having unique conditions. gis and remote sensing can be used to monitor in order to manage this sensitive province. then, this study is trying to detect land cover changes in coastal areas of mazandaran province using lcm. land cover changes detection have done using la...

Cement grouting is an operation often carried out to consolidate and seal the rock mass in dam sites and tunnels. The quality and efficiency of a grouting operation depends on various factors such as water take, grout properties and grouting pressure. One of the parameters which have the highest effect is pressure since the application of excessive pressure causes the hydraulic fracture phenome...

Distance-based techniques have recently emerged in the context of ensemble modeling, in particular for history matching, model selection and uncertainty quantification. Starting with an initial ensemble of model realizations, a distance between any two realizations is defined. The purpose of this distance is to introduce the purpose of modeling into the process of geological modeling, thereby p...

Enhanced fuzzy modeling by multivariable fuzzy membership functions is described. From the interpretability issues viewpoint conventionally fuzzy modeling is carried out by means of decomposition of multivariable membership functions via projections on each variable component. However, due to decomposition there involves an error while reconstructing the model output from the contributions of e...

We consider a computational model for the evolution of methane hydrates in subsurface. Methane hydrates, an ice-like compound abundant in subsea sediments and unstable in standard conditions, are an environmental hazard and simultaneously an energy source. Our multiphysics model includes multiphase multicomponent mass conservation equations and several variants of energy balance equation with o...
