Geomechanical Controls on Fracture Development in Chalk and Marl in the Danish North Sea Understanding and Predicting F


Free Download Michael John Welch, "Geomechanical Controls on Fracture Development in Chalk and Marl in the Danish North Sea: Understanding and Predicting F"
English | ISBN: 3031353269 | 2023 | 279 pages | PDF | 14 MB
This book summarizes new discoveries on fracturing in chalk. Based on studies on the Danish North Sea, this book shows how observations from outcrop analogues, core and seismic data can be used to characterize the density, distribution and geometry of natural fractures in chalk and marl. Laboratory experiments on chalk samples reveal the controls on the geomechanical properties of chalk and thus on the growth of natural fractures. Finally, various modeling techniques are employed to investigate the mechanical deformation in the chalk structures of the Danish North Sea and to predict fracture distribution and geometry in the subsurface.

Failed Fracture Fixation Revision Surgery Made Easy


Free Download Failed Fracture Fixation: Revision Surgery Made Easy
English | 2024 | ISBN: 303139691X | 465 Pages | PDF (True) | 37 MB
This first edition text book describes applicable step-wise approaches to successfully manage patients with failed fracture fixation. Cases are presented for a range of anatomical sites focusing on the aetiology of the failure, clinical examination along with the necessary investigations required for the initial patient assessment, pre-operative planning and its successful execution. Emphasis is placed on detailing when the timing of an intervention is required. A "tips and tricks" section is provided in each chapter enabling the reader to familiarize themselves with potential pitfalls associated with each technique covered and further develop their understanding of the content covered.
