  2. Geologic modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_modelling

    For example, in the oil and gas industry, realistic geologic models are required as input to reservoir simulator programs, which predict the behavior of the rocks under various hydrocarbon recovery scenarios. A reservoir can only be developed and produced once; therefore, making a mistake by selecting a site with poor conditions for development ...

  3. Infobox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infobox

    The iPopulator project created a system to add a value to an article's infobox parameter via an automated parsing of the text of that article. [ 11 ] DBpedia uses structured content extracted from infoboxes [ 2 ] by machine learning algorithms to create a resource of linked data in the Semantic Web ; it has been described by Tim Berners-Lee as ...

  4. Lithosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithosphere

    The tectonic plates of the lithosphere on Earth Earth cutaway from center to surface, the lithosphere comprising the crust and lithospheric mantle (detail not to scale). A lithosphere (from Ancient Greek λίθος (líthos) 'rocky' and σφαίρα (sphaíra) 'sphere') is the rigid, [1] outermost rocky shell of a terrestrial planet or natural satellite.

  5. Internal structure of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_structure_of_Earth

    Earth's crust and mantle, Mohorovičić discontinuity between bottom of crust and solid uppermost mantle. Earth's mantle extends to a depth of 2,890 km (1,800 mi), making it the planet's thickest layer. [20] [This is 45% of the 6,371 km (3,959 mi) radius, and 83.7% of the volume - 0.6% of the volume is the crust].

  6. Crust (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crust_(geology)

    The internal structure of Earth. In geology, the crust is the outermost solid shell of a planet, dwarf planet, or natural satellite.It is usually distinguished from the underlying mantle by its chemical makeup; however, in the case of icy satellites, it may be defined based on its phase (solid crust vs. liquid mantle).

  7. Earth's crust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_crust

    Plates in the crust of Earth. Earth's crust is its thick outer shell of rock, referring to less than one percent of the planet's radius and volume. It is the top component of the lithosphere, a solidified division of Earth's layers that includes the crust and the upper part of the mantle. [1]

  8. Analogue modelling (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogue_modelling_(geology)

    The materials this model uses are sand mixture and silicone putty for the continental crust (left in layered brown) and oceanic crust (right in layered brown), and glucose syrup for the asthenosphere (greenish-blue liquid in the glass tank). There is a heater in the tank for heating the liquid. [2] [19] [20]

  9. Abox - Wikipedia

    Examples: Niger is-a country. Chad is-a country; Niger is-next-to Chad. Agadez is-a city. Agadez is-located-in Niger. TBox statements typically (or definitions of domain categories and implied relations) such as: An entity X can be a country or a city So Dagamanet is-a neighbourhood is not a fact you can specify, though it is a fact in real life.
