Too hot to handle: Assessing practitioner climate service needs to advance heat resilience

Climate Services
Extreme heat is deadly and it is disproportionately experienced by lower-income, minority, and marginalized community members. Heat practitioners are faced with the dual challenges of taking action to mitigate the level of heat experienced by local ...

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

Effect of compressive creep in load transfer components on relaxation behavior of FRP cable extrusion anchorages

Case Studies in Construction Materials
This study investigates 1000-hour and million-hour creep behaviors in load transfer components (LTCs) and evaluates the impact of LTC’s compression creep on fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) cable extrusion-anchorage relaxation.

Numerical research on anti‐dislocation measures design of deep‐buried tunnels in an anisotropic rock mass area

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper conducts a numerical simulation study on the construction of a deep‐buried tunnel in an anisotropic stratum area. A statistical analysis of the effects of two anti‐faulting design measures, namely, a conventional design and an articulated design, is carried out, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the anti‐faulting structures ...
