Developing a global risk engine [PDF]
Risk analysis is a critical link in the reduction of casualties and damages due to earthquakes. Recognition of this relation has led to a rapid rise in demand for accurate, reliable and flexible risk assessment software.

The Ventura Thrust system in California is capable of producing large magnitude earthquakes. Geological studies suggest that the fault geometry is complex, composed of multiple segments at different dips: thrust ramps dipping 30°–50° linked with bed ...

Blasting effects of cross‐fault deep‐buried excavation on adjacent existing tunnel stability
Based on the theoretical analysis of cylindrical wave propagation in a deep rock mass in the fault with a filling layer, the calculation method of peak particle velocity caused by wave propagation in the existing tunnel is established. The viscoelastic characteristics of a rock mass are examined in the analysis.

In this article, the finite element method‐smoothed particle hydrodynamics adaptive coupling algorithm is applied to numerically simulate and analyze the dynamic response of the slit tube and the crack propagation under high in situ stress. The dynamic response of the slit tube mainly exhibits radial response in the vertical direction of the slit and ...

Simulation of an 1857-like Mw 7.9 San Andreas Fault Earthquake and the Response of Tall Steel Moment Frame Buildings in Southern California – A Prototype Study [PDF]
In 1857, an earthquake of magnitude 7.9 occurred on the San Andreas fault, starting at Parkfield and rupturing in a southeasterly direction for more than 360 km.

CO2‐enhanced oil recovery (CO2‐EOR) is an economically viable carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technique that is widely practiced and contributes significantly to the achievement of carbon‐neutral cities. However, few studies have been conducted on CO2‐EOR source–sink matching involving different emission sources, different carbon ...
