Abstract The Alpine front's External Crystalline Massifs represent exhumation of mid-crustal
basement during late-stage continent-continent collision. We unravel the geodynamic …

The Earth below ground is the subject of interest for many geophysical as well as geological
investigations. Even though most practitioners would agree that all available information …

This paper presents experimental results on the anisotropy of the fracture toughness,
Brazilian tensile strength, and the fracture process zone (FPZ) in granodiorite samples. The …

An extensive campaign to characterize rock stresses on the decameter scale was carried out
in three 18–24 m long boreholes drilled from a tunnel in foliated granite at the Grimsel Test …

The construction of fine-scale three-dimensional models of deep structures at a regional
scale remains challenging. These models can be significantly benefitted by focusing on the …

High-resolution 3D geological models are crucial for underground development projects
and corresponding numerical simulations with applications in eg, tunneling, hydrocarbon …

Faults divide the strata into discontinuous blocks, making describing the spatial relationship
between geological bodies more difficult. However, the literature still lacks simplification …

The integration of petrophysical data and probabilistic geological modelling in geophysical
joint inversion is a powerful tool to solve exploration challenges. Models obtained from …

Geological modeling commonly results in a single prescribed geometric representation of
the subsurface with no consideration of uncertainties. Accounting for uncertainties is of …

The thermo-kinematic evolution of the eastern Aar Massif, Swiss Alps, was investigated
using peak temperature data estimated from Raman spectroscopy of carbonaceous material …
