ABSTRACT The role of public project construction in achieving net‐zero carbon emissions highlights the imperative for contractors to prioritize low‐carbon practices. This study investigates the emergence of contractors' low‐carbon attention (LCA) based on the attention‐based view (ABV), focusing on structural factors (i.e., institutional logic and low ...

Modified Mass Classification of Layered Rock Masses Based on the HC Method. ABSTRACT The HC method for hydropower is a commonly used rock mass quality classification technique in China's hydropower industry. Due to the anisotropic nature of the layered schist in the study area, and the varying angles between different tunnel layers and the tunnel axis,

A Cross‐Disciplinary Analysis of AI Policies in Academic Peer Review
ABSTRACT Rapid advances of artificial intelligence (AI) have substantially impacted the field of academic publishing. This study examines AI integration in peer review by analysing policies from 439 high‐ and 363 middle‐impact factor (IF) journals across disciplines. Using grounded theory, we identify patterns in AI policy adoption. Results show 83% of

ABSTRACT This study presents a unified representation of the seepage characteristics of virtual soil, such as the transition zone from low‐velocity Darcy flow to high‐velocity non‐Darcy flow, by conducting 3D pore‐level fluid simulations. The process of defining a virtual test region as a representative volume element (RVE) and then assessing the ...

Numerical Instability in Slope Stability Analysis: A Finite Difference Approach
ABSTRACT In geotechnical engineering, slice methods are the most widely used computational techniques for analyzing slope stability. Notably, the Morgenstern‐Price and Janbu approaches rigorously enforce the equilibrium of forces and moments within these slice methods.

Ground Vibration Attenuation Induced by Gabion and Concrete Mats
ABSTRACT This paper presents a numerical investigation of the ground vibration attenuation promoted by gabion and concrete mats. The analyses employ a coupled boundary‐finite element model, in which the mat is modeled as a flexible plate in fully bonded contact with the surface of an unbounded, linear‐elastic half‐space representing the soil.
