1. Slopes in soft clay - management of strength mobilisation
Sammanfattning : Many natural and man-made slopes close to buildings or infrastructure do not demonstrate sufficient levels of safety with respect to their stability. Nonetheless, it is a requirement from society that the environment we live in is safe. LÄS MER
2. Co-disposal of waste rock and lignite fly ash to mitigate the environmental impact of coal mining
Sammanfattning : Waste rocks (WRs) from coal mining and fly ash (FA) from coal combustion were studied to determine the potential of the WRs to generate AMD, FAs to neutralise it and estimate their impacts on environment. The ultimate goal was to develop a methodology based on co-disposal to mitigate the environmental problems associated to both wastes. LÄS MER
3. Deformation behaviour and chemical signatures of anorthosites: : Examples from southern West Greenland and south-central Sweden
Sammanfattning : Plagioclase is the most abundant mineral in the lower crust and it is thus important to constrain the behaviour of plagioclase during deformation. Anorthosites, which are plagioclase-rich rocks, are common in Archaean cratons but their origin and rheological importance is still debated. LÄS MER
4. Structural and neural network analyses of fracture systems at the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory, SE Sweden
Sammanfattning : The > 10,000 fractures documented in the 450m deep Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory (HRL) provide a unique opportunity to study brittle deformation of a Swedish bedrock mass. The fracture population consists of six major sets, one subhorizontal and five sub-vertical. LÄS MER
5. Experimental investigation of hydrocarbon formation and transformation under Earth´s upper mantle conditions
Sammanfattning : The theory of the abyssal abiotic petroleum origin considers oil and natural gas to begenerated in the Earth’s upper mantle. Hydrocarbons migrate further through the deep faults into the Earth’s crust, where they can form oil and gas deposits in any kind of rock in any kind of structural position. LÄS MER
