Sudden drop of fractal dimension of electromagnetic emissions recorded prior to significant earthquake

open access: yes, 2013
The variation of fractal dimension and entropy during a damage evolution process, especially approaching critical failure, has been recently investigated.

Linear elastic fracture mechanics predicts the propagation distance of frictional slip [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
When a frictional interface is subject to a localized shear load, it is often (experimentally) observed that local slip events initiate at the stress concentration and propagate over parts of the interface by arresting naturally before reaching the edge.

Negative Anomalies of the Earth’s Electric Field as Earthquake Precursors

open access: yesGéosciences, 2019
Anomalies of the electric field potential gradient have been observed in the near-ground air before earthquakes in different regions of the world. Such anomalies are likely caused by radon air ionization.

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

open access: yesDeep 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 ...

Predictability of Self-Organizing Systems

open access: yes, 1993
We study the predictability of large events in self-organizing systems. We focus on a set of models which have been studied as analogs of earthquake faults and fault systems, and apply methods based on techniques which are of current interest in ...

An optimizing microseismic method for rock burst early warning based on mining production process

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A classification early warning method of rock burst based on hourly microseismic data is proposed, which can be combined with the on‐site production process to provide more timely warning. Abstract Microseismic (MS) events have been reported in nearly every coal mining country, which could well lead to rock burst in underground coal mines.

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Discussion on telluric field and seismic activity in Central Greece

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2000
Two stations were installed in the Southeastern Thessaly basin (Central Greece), recording the geomagnetic and telluric fields from 1993 to 1996. The aim was to detect long-term abnormal changes of the telluric field, which were possibly related to ...

Energy Storage System in Microgrids: Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Hybrid integration of multiple Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) within renewable‐powered microgrids enhances reliability, flexibility, and economic sustainability. Lithium‐ion batteries, flow batteries, hydrogen storage, and thermal systems complement each other through coordinated control via Energy Management Systems.
