Author Biographies

Fred Kofi Boadu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Duke University. He holds a B.Sc. (Hons) in Geological Engineering from Kwame Nkrumah University, Ghana, a Postgraduate Diploma from McGill University, an M.Sc. from The University of Calgary and a Ph.D. (1994) in Geophysics from Georgia Institute of Technology. Prof. Boadu's research interests involve use of electrical and acoustic measurements, as well as modeling the characterization of porous media: rocks and soils in the earth's subsurface and also biological tissues. His research has implications in human tissue characterization and modeling, as well as in reservoir characterization in groundwater and petroleum resource exploration. Fred uses fractals, neural networks and fuzzy logic to enhance the prediction and characterization of the porous media.

Detlef G. Eberle received a diploma in geophysics from Munich University, Germany in 1971. The same year he joined the Airborne Geophysics Section of the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) in Hannover. He received his Dr. rer. nat. degree in 1978, also from Munich University. In 1994 he was appointed Professor Associate of Berlin Technical University. He recently joined the South African Council for Geoscience. His main interests are . . . [Full Text of this Article]
