Chang, L. (author), Ku, Ou (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Continuous hydrocarbon production and steam/water injection cause compaction and expansion of the reservoir rock, leading to irregular downward and upward ground movements. Detecting such anthropogenic ground movements is of importance, as they may significantly influence the safety and sustainability of hydrocarbon production activities, in...journal article 2018

D'Urbino, Michele (author), Chen, C. (author), Chen, Z. (author), Chang, Z.Y. (author), Ponte, Jacco (author), Lippe, Boris (author), Pertijs, M.A.P. (author)This paper presents a power- and area-efficient approach to digitizing the echo signals received by piezoelectric transducer elements, commonly used for ultrasound imaging. This technique utilizes such elements not only as sensors but also as the loop filter of an element-level δσ analog to digital converter (ADC). The receiver chain is thus...journal article 2018
