Utilizing data available from the Kentucky Geonet (KYGeonet.ky.gov) the fossil fuel mining locations created by the Kentucky Geological Survey geo-locating oil and gas wells are mapped using ESRI ArcGIS in Kentucky single plain 1602 ft projection. This data was then exported into a spreadsheet showing latitude and longitude for each point to be used for modeling at different scales to determine the fractal dimension of the set. Following the porosity and diffusivity studies of Tarafdar and Roy1 we extract fractal dimensions of the fossil fuel mining locations and search for evidence of scaling laws for the set of deposits. The Levy index is used to determine a match to a statistical mechanically motivated generalized probability function for the wells. This probability distribution corresponds to a solution of a dynamical anomalous diffusion equation of fractional order that describes the Levy paths which can be solved in the diffusion limit by the Fox H function ansatz.

A novel method utilizing Fast Neutron Resonance Transmission Radiography is proposed for rapid, non-destructive and quantitative determination of the weight fractions of oil and water in cores taken from subterranean or underwater geological formatio
ns. Its ability to distinguish water from oil stems from the unambiguously-specific energy-dependence of the neutron cross-sections for the principal elemental constituents. Furthermore, the fluid weight fractions permit determining core porosity and oil and water saturations. In this article we show results of experimental determination of oil and water weight fractions in 10 cm thick samples of Berea Sandstone and Indiana Limestone formations, followed by calculation of their porosity and fluid saturations. The technique may ultimately permit rapid, accurate and non-destructive evaluation of relevant petro-physical properties in thick intact cores. It is suitable for all types of formations including tight shales, clays and oil sands.
We present a three-dimensional model, based on cohesive spherical particles, of rain-induced landslides. The rainwater infiltration into the soil follow the either the fractional or the fractal diffusion equations. We solve analytically the fractal d
iffusion partial differential equation (PDE) with particular boundary conditions to simulate a rainfall event. Then, for the PDE, we developed a numerical integration scheme that we integrate with MD (Molecular Dynamics) algorithm for the triggering and propagation of the simulated landslide. Therefore we test the numerical integration scheme of fractal diffusion equation with the analytical solution. We adopt the fractal diffusion equation in term of gravimetric water content that we use as input of triggering scheme based on Mohr-Coulomb limit-equilibrium criterion, adapted to particle level. Moreover, taking into account an interacting force Lennard-Jones inspired, we use a standard MD algorithm to update particle positions and velocities. Then we present results for homogeneous and heterogeneous systems (i.e. composed by particles with same or different radius respectively). Interestingly, in the heterogeneous case, we observe segregation effects due to the different volume of the particles. Finally we show the parameter sensibility analysis both for triggering and propagation phase. Our simulations confirm the results of our previous two-dimensional model and therefore the feasible applicability to real cases.
Geometrical properties of landscapes result from the geological processes that have acted through time. The quantitative analysis of natural relief represents an objective form of aiding in the visual interpretation of landscapes, as studies on coast
lines, river networks, and global topography, have shown. Still, an open question is whether a clear relationship between the quantitative properties of landscapes and the dominant geomorphologic processes that originate them can be established. In this contribution, we show that the geometry of topographic isolines is an appropriate observable to help disentangle such a relationship. A fractal analysis of terrestrial isolines yields a clear identification of trenches and abyssal plains, differentiates oceanic ridges from continental slopes and platforms, localizes coastlines and river systems, and isolates areas at high elevation (or latitude) subjected to the erosive action of ice. The study of the geometrical properties of the lunar landscape supports the existence of a correspondence between principal geomorphic processes and landforms. Our analysis can be easily applied to other planetary bodies.
An exact analytical analysis of anomalous diffusion on a fractal mesh is presented. The fractal mesh structure is a direct product of two fractal sets which belong to a main branch of backbones and side branch of fingers. The fractal sets of both bac
kbones and fingers are constructed on the entire (infinite) $y$ and $x$ axises. To this end we suggested a special algorithm of this special construction. The transport properties of the fractal mesh is studied, in particular, subdiffusion along the backbones is obtained with the dispersion relation $langle x^2(t)ranglesim t^{beta}$, where the transport exponent $beta<1$ is determined by the fractal dimensions of both backbone and fingers. Superdiffusion with $beta>1$ has been observed as well when the environment is controlled by means of a memory kernel.
A modified-Bloch equation based on the fractal derivative is proposed to analyze pulsed field gradient (PFG) anomalous diffusion. Anomalous diffusion exists in many systems such as in polymer or biological systems. PFG anomalous diffusion could be an
alyzed based on the fractal derivative or the fractional derivative. Compared to the fractional derivative, the fractal derivative is simpler, and it is faster in numerical evaluations. In this paper, the fractal derivative is employed to build the modified-Bloch equation that is a fundamental method to describe the spin magnetization evolution affected by fractional diffusion, Larmor precession, and relaxation. An equivalent form of the fractal derivative is proposed to convert the fractional diffusion equation, which can then be combined with the precession and relaxation equations to get the modified-Bloch equation. This modified-Bloch equation yields a general PFG signal attenuation expression that includes the finite gradient pulse width (FGPW) effect, namely, the signal attenuation during field gradient pulse. The FGPW effect needs to be considered in most clinical MRI applications, and including FGPW effect allows the detecting of slower diffusion that is often encountered in polymer systems. Additionally, the spin-spin relaxation effect can be analyzed, which provides a broad view of the dynamic process in materials. The modified-Bloch equation based on the fractal derivative could provide a fundamental theoretical model for PFG anomalous diffusion.
