Abstract In the south-west part of Slovenia runs a major thrust fault, which divides limestone and flysch strata known as the Karst Edge. Karst Edge is seen at the ground surface as a major natural feature consisting of a 50km long and some 30m high vertical limestone cliff that dominate the landscape. Combination of the tectonic fracturing and the weathering causes the limestone cliff to crumble and break triggering the rock falls and also the instabilities in the flysh strata bellow. At the location of Bezovica village, a large block had fallen triggering a landslide in weathered flysch below. It was concluded that the mechanism of instability was a combination of the action of the additional surcharge deposited by the fallen rock and the rise of pore pressures within the weathered ground above the flysch layer. The remediation works, which included controlled blasting and removal of the rock debris and extended drainage measures, are presented in the paper. 1 Introduction 1.1 Geological and hydrogeological features associated with Karst Edge Between Kozina and Koper in Slovenia there is the border area between Istria, belonging to Dinaric foreland, and Kras (Karst in Slovene) that belong to the External Dinarides. The Karst Edge or Karst Rim is an imbricate geological structure, formed between Eocene and Oligocene. Figure 1 The main feature of Karst Edge is the sequence of thrust faults overlapping Cretaceous, Palaeocene, Lower and Middle Eocene carbonate beds with transition marl and flysch rocks of Eocene age. The faults were active in post-Miocene times due to under-thrusting of Istria peninsula under the mainland External Dinarides (Placer, 2007). The Karst Edge is a formidable geological obstacle for the development of infrastructure. In Slovenia, a construction of motorway connecting the capital Ljubljana and port of Koper and the site investigations carried out for the need of new railway line were instrumental to reveal the structural features of Karst Edge. The overlap of thrust faults formed ideal conditions for the formation of karst features in the Slovenian Karst plateau, which extends east of Karst Edge. In the typical sequence, the underlying flysch acts as an aquitard, holding the significant water retention to water bearing limestone above.
Innovation is a hallmark of oil and gas operations. As companies look to survive in the new economy created by the oil price downturn, the need to find new, cost-efficient technology for manufacturing, data processing, or even overall project management, is greater than ever, so much so that the industry is examining other industries for products and processes that may have crossover appeal. That examination was the topic of a panel discussion at the Unconventional Resources Technology Conference in July, where a panel of scientists from firms and laboratories spoke about emerging technologies and new uses for old technologies outside the sphere of traditional petroleum that could have a disruptive impact on the industry. Medical Science Crossovers Olga Koper, oil and gas market leader at Battelle, discussed some of the projects the science research firm has developed in the medical field that could provide significant benefit to operating companies. One such device, the NeuroLife Neural Bypass Technology, helps paralyzed patients regain conscious control of their fingers, hands, and wrists. The system uses a neuroprosthetic microchip that, when implanted in the brain, forms an electronic neural bypass that circumvents disconnected pathways in the nervous system. Battelle applied machine-learning algorithms to decode neuronal activity in the brain and control the use of a person’s forearm muscles. The chip picked up signals from the brain and transmitted the data to a computer with Battelle’s decoding software installed. The decoded data were then transmitted to a proprietary neuromuscular electrical stimulation sys-tem that provided isolated finger movements, essentially allowing a person to control a paralyzed hand by translating his thoughts. Battelle partnered with surgeons at The Ohio State University to implant the system in the brain of a man paralyzed from the chest down. The surgeons implanted a 4×4-mm chip into the motor cortex area of the man’s brain, the area responsible for voluntary movements. Two years into the trial, he is able to transfer objects, stir liquids, and swipe a credit card, among other actions. Koper said the algorithms behind the NeuroLife technology could apply to oil and gas projects, where owners, opera-tors, project managers, and on-site personnel consistently engage in real-time decision making while stringing together large amounts of data. The micro-chip used in the medical case is capable of collecting 30,000 samples/sec across 96 electrodes, producing a total of 2.88 million data points/sec, making it potentially useful hardware for a variety of management systems. “There’s a lot of data, and it has to be filtered, you have to see machine learning of the right data transferred into specific motions,” Koper said. “With big data, the real-time decision making, this is what’s happening right now in the oil and gas industry. We have the technology, but there is not yet that direct type of application. We have to start thinking, how will we do this 10, 20, or even 50 years down the road? Where are some of the new areas where this will be a useful technology?”

ABSTRACT A construction of a modern railway connection between Slovenian port of Koper and the rest of the country had become a necessity for Slovenia, in particular to accommodate the needs of the increasing freight transport. The first and the most challenging step is construction of 28 km link in western part of Slovenia, connecting Koper with Divaèa town, laying on karst plateau, some 430m above the sea level. The route is designed through eight successive tunnels in common length of 20 km. The longest among them is 6,7 km long tunnel T1 running through the karst. The paper describes palette of geological, hydrogeological, karstological and geotechnical investigations aimed at design prognosis for construction of this tunnel. Special emphasis is given to hydrogeological conditions along the tunnel route and on ecological effects of the tunnel due to eventual redirection of groundwater flow in the region. Geotechnical and hydrogeological results are commented. Design parameters are given and geotechnical prediction of the rock quality and rock behaviour type through rock classification is supplied, including the assessment of the tunnel roof stability. Prognosis of water inflows on the tunnel face and water incomes along the whole tunnel length for construction period is given on the base of calculations. On the other hand, an assessment of long term redirection of groundwater discharge through the drained tunnel is also made on the base of relevant calculations.

Dxn Reibungsverhältnisse zwischen aufeinanderreibenden Metallflächen mit und ohne Anwendung von Schmiermitteln werden dargelegt. Es wird eine ölprüfmaschine beschrieben, bei welcher als Mass für die Schmierfähigkeit eines Oeles die Zeit festgestellt wird, die erforderlich ist, um bei Anwendung einer bestimmten Henge des öles in dem unter konstantem Druck und mit konstanter Umlaufgeschwindigkeit arbeitenden Lager die Temperatur soweit ansteigen zu lassen, dass die Reibung einen bestimmten Wert überschreitet. Das Drehmoment der Reibung wird auf ein Pendel übertragen, welches bei einem bestimmten Ausschlag automatisch die Maschine und die auf der Maschine angebrachte Uhr zum Stehen bringt. Vorbildlich für die Beobachtungen des Schmierproblems sind die Versuche von Stribeck, die dieser an Gleitlagern aus der Praxis entnommen angestellt hat, und deren grundsätzliche Folgerungen er in einer genialen Kurve zusammengefasst hat. Diese Kurve zeigt die Abhängigkeit des Reibungskoeffizienten von der Gleitgeschwindigkeit (Bild.).

Feste Körper stellen wir uns als Konglomerate von einzelnen sehr kleinen Massenpunkten, Molekülen, vor, die ganz bestimmte Entfernungen von einander haben. Eine Verringerung dieser Entfernung kann mechanisch 'nur durch Druckkräfte, eine Vergrösserung nur durch Zugkräfte bewirkt werden. Nähern sich nun zwei feste Körper einander, so tritt dann die erste Berührung ein, wenn mindestens ein Molekül des einen Körpers in normale Molekülentfernung zu einem Molekül des anderen Köpers kommt. Natürlich darf keine fremde Zwischenschicht vorhanden sein. Berühren sich die Körper in ebenen Flächen, so hängt es von dem Bearbeitungszustand der Flächen ab, in wievielen Punkten wirkliche Berührung in obigem Sinne stattfindet. Je feiner die Bearbeitung, desto mehr wirkliche Berührungspunkte werden entstehen. Betrachten wir einal, wie weit man mit einer guten Präzisions-Arbeit kommt.
