Miorali, M. (author), Zhou, F. (author), Slob, E.C. (author), Arts, R. (author)The recent introduction of smart well technology allows for new geophysical monitoring opportunities. Smart wells, which allow zonal production control, combined with monitoring techniques capable of capturing the arrival of undesired fluids, have the potential to significantly increase the oil recovery. We consider borehole radar as a valuable...journal article 2011

Slob, E.C. (author), Sato, M. (author), Olhoeft, G. (author)During the past 80 years, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has evolved from a skeptically received glacier sounder to a full multicomponent 3D volume-imaging and characterization device. The tool can be calibrated to allow for quantitative estimates of physical properties such as water content. Because of its high resolution, GPR is a valuable...journal article 2010

Lambot, S. (author), Weihermüller, L. (author), Huisman, J.A. (author), Vereecken, H. (author), Vanclooster, M. (author), Slob, E.C. (author)We analyze the common surface reflection and full-wave inversion methods to retrieve the soil surface dielectric permittivity and correlated water content from air-launched ground-penetrating radar (GPR) measurements. In the full-wave approach, antenna effects are filtered out from the raw radar data in the frequency domain, and full-wave...journal article 2006

Lopra, O. (author), Lambot, S. (author), Slob, E. (author), Vanclooster, M. (author), Macq, B. (author), Milisavljevic, N. (author)The application of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) in humanitarian demining labors presents two major challenges: (1) the development of affordable and practical systems to detect metallic and non-metallic antipersonnel (AP) landmines under different conditions, and (2) the development of accurate soil characterization techniques to evaluate soil...conference paper 2006
