Summary: This study evaluates a new methodology for detecting subsurface drainage (SD) networks using time-lapse electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) monitoring and high-pressure air injection. Experimental results show that high-pressure air injection instantly modifies soil electrical resistivity around drains, creating visible contrasts on ERT images.

Summary: This study validated a theoretical hydrological model of the karst critical zone by using time-lapse electric resistivity tomography (TL-ERT) to monitor the area above Golgotha Cave in Western Australia. The TL-ERT program identified previously unknown permanent water storages and fast hydrological flow pathways, confirming and extending the existing hydrogeological model. The resulting conceptual model showcased annual recharge patterns, preferential flow paths, and time lags between soil moisture saturation and seasonal connections in the karst system.

Summary: This paper provides a critical comparison of three different time-shift calculation techniques, which are applied to synthetic data sets and four sets of real time-lapse seismic data from three North Sea fields. Both qualitative and quantitative comparisons are performed, and the most suitable method is suggested for each data scenario.

Summary: In this research, multiple remote sensing techniques and time-lapse ERT imaging were used to monitor the post-failure evolution of the Luojiapo landslide in Heifangtai. The study revealed pronounced temporal and spatial differences in deformation and hydrological evolution of landslides after sliding. The largest displacement rates occurred in the landslide source area, and the groundwater table showed significant changes in response to irrigation. Spatial differences in groundwater table evolution were identified as one of the main causes of landslide reactivation.

Summary: The study focused on the application of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) using time-series clustering to detect geological or hydrological structures in the shallow subsurface. Results showed that different clustering algorithms provided similar spatial patterns on standardized data, but some clusters were spatially split with different geological units. Applying a spatial constraint in clustering of standardized data increased the number of clusters to retrieve spatially tied clusters.

Summary: A self-constructed Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation has been developed to simulate time-of-flight (TOF) measurement for U-236 accelerator mass spectrometry. The results show good agreement between the simulation and experiment at two different thicknesses of carbon foil cases, indicating that the TOF detection system has ultrasensitivity in timing measurement.

Summary: Three borehole gravity surveys were conducted in 2013, 2016, and 2018 to monitor the changes in gravity and density due to the injection and withdrawal of CO2 in the Dover 33 reef in Northern Michigan. The results showed consistent changes in CO2 mass within the reservoir over time, with increasing mass from 2013 to 2016 and decreasing mass from 2016 to 2018. By coupling time-lapse BHG results with a 3D porosity and permeability model, fluid migration within the reef was visualized and allowed for evaluating the volume of CO2 injected and the efficiency of oil sweeping.

Summary: High precision, warpage free injection molded parts are highly in demand, and a mold with 18 individually controllable tempering zones has been developed to address the warpage issue. Experimental trials show that the model predictive control approach (MPC) is more precise than the PID control approach for superior control accuracy.
