The integration of machine learning (ML) techniques into geophysical exploration and underwater mapping has emerged as a transformative approach for interpreting complex sensor data. This paper presents a comprehensive framework for using COMSOL Multiphysics to develop and validate ... En savoir plus
Soil sedimentation and consolidation, whether they are naturally or anthropically driven processes, are closely interconnected. While theoretical models are available to separately describe the behaviour of either ‘fluid’ suspensions or ‘solid’ soil, no well-established unified theory ... En savoir plus
Multi-parameter monitoring techniques, combined with robust mathematical models, are crucial for effective volcano monitoring and early warning to civil authorities and the public. This work focuses on the modeling of ground deformation, an indispensable component for any volcano ... En savoir plus
Increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are known to be the main cause of global warming. Among the various decarbonisation strategies proposed, geological storage of CO2 is one of the most interesting options for reducing net carbon emissions to the atmosphere. ... En savoir plus
A thermo-hydraulically (TH) coupled code for modelling the water uptake of compacted bentonite has been developed and presented by (Kröhn and Fromme 2023). This code is internally called “COMSOL-VIPER” as it is based on the balance equations developed for the experimental code VIPER ... En savoir plus
The disposal of highly radioactive waste in geological environment is not the possibility studies anymore as the countries such as Finland, Sweden, France with more advanced radwaste disposal programs are actually implementing it nowadays. In such disposal system, passive safety does not ... En savoir plus
The Yellowstone Volcanic Complex (YVC) in Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming, USA) attracts intense geological interest, as it ranks as one of the largest active continental silicic volcanic fields worldwide. Despite extensive research on the region's high heat flow and abundant ... En savoir plus
Decarbonization of the heating sector requires the exploitation of climate-neutral energy sources and the use of natural heat storage. Shallow and deep geothermal energy can make a valuable contribution to this. The dimensioning and design of geothermal boreholes and larger borehole heat ... En savoir plus
In this work we present a novel approach to enhance energy efficiency in cooling intake air for air conditioning (AC) systems in harsh environments using geothermal energy. We developed a 3D finite element model to simulate the heat transfer between underground soils/gravels and cooling ... En savoir plus
Campi Flegrei Caldera is an active volcano located westward of Naples, Italy. Despite its volcanic activity spanning over 39,000 years, the area is densely populated and poses a significant threat to the inhabitants due to ongoing seismicity, ground uplift, and hydrothermal activity ...
