Geostatistical analysis of fault density in an engineering site

For understanding of the geological features of faults in an engineering site,the author analyzed the spatial distribution characteristics of fault density with the indicator Kriging method after systematically collecting and processing the previous geological data of the engineering site and by conducting extensively surface and underground geological investigation in the field.The distribution of fault density is evidently anisotropic,with a dominant orientation(296.4°) close to the direction ...
