Hazard assessment of seismic-collapsed loess landslides on the Loess Plateau as exemplified by the M6.2 earthquake in Jishishan County, China

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Loess Plateau is marked by intense neotectonic activity and frequent earthquakes. Its unique physico-mechanical properties, combined with the granular overhead pore structure of loess, render it prone to seismic landslides triggered by strong ...

Study on the failure mechanism of the shield excavation face in the sandy cobble stratum under different buried depths

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the significant challenges faced in shield tunnel construction is the risk of collapse resulting from abrupt changes in soil conditions in advance of the working face, particularly within the sandy cobble stratum. This study aims to effectively manage these sudden variations and to further investigate the failure mechanisms associated ...

Software engineering’s contribution to earthquake engineering

Earth Sciences Research Journal, 2013
Earthquakes are natural disasters which affect Mexico regularly. It is very important to obtain all information about them quickly, in order to speed up attention to population affected and if it is possible, applying prevention actions. At present time, to obtain knowledge of seismic events is essential to use computer and specialized software.

Earthquakes and earthquake engineering in China

Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1987
China is one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world and has suffered many disasters. During the last twenty years, especially since the Tangshan earthquake of July 1976 which killed 242,000 people and disabled almost 200,000 people, the Chinese government and the whole society have paid more attention to and made a huge effort to deal with

Investigation of the failure characteristics of fissure tunnels under dynamic and static combinations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article aims to investigate the dynamic fracture response of fractured tunnel models under zero geological stress through physical experiments and numerical simulations. It further simulates the dynamic fracture characteristics of fractured tunnel models under geological stress ranging from 0 to 2.5 MPa using the numerical software AUTODYN ...

Data‐driven analysis of the spatial dependence of grouting efficiency during tunnel excavation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Prediction of grouting efficiency using machine learning is enhanced by adopting a training strategy that accounts for the grouting process across multiple rounds. Abstract Grouting with water–cement mixtures is the most widely used and cost‐effective method for managing excess water inflow during tunnel construction.

Resonance‐induced restoration of rock permeability degraded by heavy components of crude oil

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Resonance‐induced changes occur in filtration properties of sedimentary rocks in crude paraffin oil flow under acoustic vibrations. Experimental data on (a) pressure drop; (b) permeability; (c) pressure at the rock inlet; and (d) pressure at the rock outlet are presented.
