  2. Dam safety system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dam_safety_system

    The dam monitoring system checks the level of the water because this creates different pressures on the dam, also in relation to the air and water temperature. All these parameters are controlled and compared with the deformation and stress applied on the structure of the dam, measured with extensimeter, pendulum, reverse pendulum, piezometer, etc.

  3. List of free geology software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_free_geology_software

    This is a list of free and open-source software for geological data handling and interpretation. The list is split into broad categories, depending on the intended use of the software and its scope of functionality. Notice that 'free and open-source' requires that the source code is available and users are given a free software license.

  5. Central Valley land subsidence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_land_subsidence

    These sensors work by sending in small electromagnetic waves into the subsurface level, and receiving information as these waves are returned. [12] Key components of studying land subsidence in the Central Valley include large and small scale monitoring, studying topography in relation to groundwater, and a multi-agency approach.

  6. Back-stripping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-stripping

    A more complete analysis uses decompaction of the remaining sequence following each stage of the back-stripping. This takes into account the amount of compaction caused by the loading of the later layers and allows a better estimation of the depositional thickness of the remaining layers and the variation of water depth with time.

  7. Subsidence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsidence

    Subsidence frequently causes major problems in karst terrains, where dissolution of limestone by fluid flow in the subsurface creates voids (i.e., caves).If the roof of a void becomes too weak, it can collapse and the overlying rock and earth will fall into the space, causing subsidence at the surface.

  9. Sesam (structural analysis software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sesam_(structural_analysis...

    Sesam is a software suite for structural and hydrodynamic analysis of ships and offshore structures. [1] It is based on the displacement formulation of the Finite Element Method . The first version of Sesam was developed at NTH, now Norges Teknisk-Naturvitenskapelige Universitet ( NTNU Trondheim ), in the mid-1960s. [ 2 ]
