Modelling strong seismic ground motion: three-dimensional loading path versus wavefield polarization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Seismic waves due to strong earthquakes propagating in surficial soil layers may both reduce soil stiffness and increase the energy dissipation into the soil.

Fracture evolution of a thick soft protection layer and the water inrush mechanism in overburden under longwall mining

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

A Bayesian Framework for the Calibration of Cyclic Triaxial Tests

open access: yesGeotechnics
This research presents the calibration of a constitutive model to replicate the cyclic performance of soils using a Bayesian framework. This study uses data from laboratory-conducted consolidated undrained isotropic cyclic triaxial tests and numerical tools to estimate optimal parameters by the application of Slice Sampling in a Bayesian analysis and ...

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.
