Establishing the Pre-requisites of Post-disaster Reconstruction in Rural Settlements (Case study: Estalakh-kouhVillage) [PDF]

مسکن و محیط روستا, 2015
A major part of land in  Iran  is located on the high to very high seismic risk territory.  The recurring destruction and life-loss or human casualties in rural settlements are very often due to this natural phenomenon.

Failure characteristics and the energy criterion of rock with a through‐going joint under true‐triaxial unloading conditions: Insights from the DEM model

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The rock failure mode is significantly influenced by the contributing factors, such as the joint inclination, the initial confining pressure, and the unloading point. We found six typical rock failure modes after a large number of numerical tests. Abstract Excavation unloading damages rock masses, with preferential failure along geological defects in ...

"Impact of Natural Disasters on Industrial Agglomeration: A Case of the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake" [PDF]

One of the main implications of the New Economic Geography, developed since the 1990s, is that a temporary shock can create a persistent impact on the geographic distribution of economic activities because of multiple equilibria.

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Nonsilting transport characteristics of coal slurry in a deep underground fluidization conveying pipeline under the action of a guide vane swirler

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Aiming at the scientific frontiers of in situ fluidized mining of deep resources, a deep coal fluidized pipeline lifting system based on hydraulic conveying has been proposed. To solve the issue of particle sedimentation of large particles in horizontal connection sections, a solution involving the installation of guide vane‐type swirlers in the ...

The July 14, 2025 Mw 5.3 earthquake in the NE Alboran Sea (Spain): insights into the causative source from seismic relocation and moment tensor analysis

Frontiers in Earth Science
On 14 July 2025, an Mw 5.3 earthquake occurred in the northeastern Alboran Sea, Spain. Its epicenter was close to the Eastern Betics Shear Zone, a region that has historically experienced major destructive earthquakes, including events with macroseismic ...

Double difference relocation of local earthquakes in the Nepal Himalaya

Journal of Nepal Geological Society, 2013
Interseismic strain across the Himalaya is associated with intense microseismic activity. In this study we analyze in detail this seismicity to explore in more details how it relates to Himalayan tectonics. We use the Double Difference Relocation Method to relocate local earthquakes recorded by National Seismological Centre in the period between 1995 ...
