Investigation of the relationships between basin morphology, tectonic uplift, and denudation from the study of an active fold belt in the Siwalik Hills, central Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The present study investigates correlations between an extensive range of geomorphic properties that can be estimated from a digital elevation model and the uplift rate on geological timescales.

Critical expansion points: Mechanical signs of surrounding rock instability

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes the Rock Bearing‐Expansion Model (RockBEM) with critical expansion points (CEPs) to quantify post‐peak damage stages in deep‐buried rock masses via plane strain compression test (PSCT). CEP hysteresis&interval ratios reveal bearing performance dynamics and failure severity, advancing mechanistic insights into deep underground rock ...

Active tectonics and strong earthquakes: A preface for the special issue

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao
Active tectonics is not only the manifestation of the latest crustal activity but also the leading cause of strong earthquakes. With its complex active tectonic system, China has become an area with particularly severe seismic activity and related ...

An optimizing microseismic method for rock burst early warning based on mining production process

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A classification early warning method of rock burst based on hourly microseismic data is proposed, which can be combined with the on‐site production process to provide more timely warning. Abstract Microseismic (MS) events have been reported in nearly every coal mining country, which could well lead to rock burst in underground coal mines.

Motion planning and control of an installation robot for attitude adjustment of arc parts in underground shield tunneling

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Inspired by spiders, the multilegged walk‐through assembling robot for arc parts achieves high‐precision synchronous control under heavy loads through dual‐layer hydraulic pose dynamics modeling and hierarchical pressure optimization, significantly enhancing shield tunneling assembly efficiency and precision.

Semi‐analytical solution for the stability of deep vertical shaft considering time‐dependent rock‐structure interaction

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel cavity contraction solution and multilayer shaft wall model were developed to analyze deep shaft stability, considering rock viscosity, support structures, and water pressure, with successful validation through a Hulusu Coal Mine case study.

Exercise in Active Tectonics: An Introduction to Earthquakes and Tectonic Geomorphology

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1996
What should undergraduate tectonics students know about earthquakes? The thesis of Exercises in Active Tectonics is that they ought to have some familiarity with quantitative methods for determining earthquake size, location, repeat time, and effect on structures.
