International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and GeoinformationUnder a sustained warming climate, reservoir‐area landslides exhibit increasingly complex, non-linear interactions. The cascade “climate or seasonal variability-soil rheology-vegetation response/feedback-impulse-wave risk” constitutes an emerging safety ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The rock failure mode is significantly influenced by the contributing factors, such as the joint inclination, the initial confining pressure, and the unloading point. We found six typical rock failure modes after a large number of numerical tests. Abstract Excavation unloading damages rock masses, with preferential failure along geological defects in ...

Debris flow susceptibility in the Jinsha River Basin, China: a Bayesian assessment framework based on geomorphodynamic parameters [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System SciencesA major challenge in assessing debris-flow susceptibility at the scale of large mountainous river basins lies in the excessive reliance on simplified topographic metrics. Existing approaches often fail to account for the cascading and dynamically coupled

Stress buildup in the Himalaya [PDF]
, 2004 The seismic cycle on a major fault involves long periods of elastic strain and stress accumulation, driven by aseismic ductile deformation at depth, ultimately released by sudden fault slip events. Coseismic slip distributions are generally heterogeneous

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Opposing shear senses in a subdetachment mylonite zone: Implications for core complex mechanics [PDF]
, 2010 [1] Global studies of metamorphic core complexes and low‐angle detachment faults have highlighted a fundamental problem: Since detachments excise crustal section, the relationship between the mylonitic rocks in their footwalls and the brittle deformation

Review and prospects of shear test of bolted rock joints
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The laboratory shear test equipment, test method, and numerical simulation of bolted rock joints were summarized. The shortcomings and limitations of the current research were analyzed, and the research prospects were proposed. Abstract Rock bolting is a critical approach in geotechnical engineering for supporting weak rocks.
