Seismic analysis and design of tunnels within fault ground: A review
The research methods of seismic response of tunnels within fault ground, including field investigations, analytical solutions, physical experiments, and numerical simulations, and seismic countermeasures are discussed. The present study examines the shortcomings and limitations of the current research and design, and puts forward proposals for future ...

Uniaxial compressive creep of a 90+% Al(,2)O(,3) and 50+% Al(,2)O(,3) refractory concrete was investigated. The creep behavior was evaluated as a function of aggregate packing, cement composition, and time at temperatures up to 2200(DEGREES)F and stresses up to 2500 psi;Refractory concrete crept more when heated the first time than on subsequent ...

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

ABSTRACT Deliberate Practice (DP) is a model of behavioral skill acquisition structured by several key tasks. The past decade has shown a consistent growth in interest in this form of learning for psychotherapy skills, with promising research suggesting DP training is superior to traditional learning methods of psychotherapy. This paper presents a case
