The sands deposited in these turbidite systems are expected to have reservoir quality due to less burial depth. Although, Oligocene-Miocene carbonate platforms are the main ...
Our coupled hydro-mechanical simulation and poro-mechanical analysis of basement fault stability suggest that the combined aquifer contraction and basement rock expansion act together to modulate the effective stress regime and anthropogenic seismicity on the basement faults in Delhi region....
