Unveiling spatial heterogeneity in urban underground space development patterns and mechanisms for differentiated planning: A points of interest‐based study of Shanghai

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigated the spatial patterns and development mechanisms of urban underground space (UUS) in Shanghai using underground points of interest data. It revealed distinct development mechanisms between the main city and suburbs, highlighting the need for differentiated UUS planning and policies to optimize underground space resources ...

Subgrade geology beneath railways in Manchester [PDF]

, 2005
It is not sufficient to identify fine-grained soils, only, as locations for potential subgrade problems as could be done using a traditional 2D geological map.

Dynamic cracking properties and generating conditions of coal under rapid gas release

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Gas release tests revealed that crack initiation and propagation are jointly controlled by initial crack length, residual strength, and gas release velocity. A new outburst risk coefficient was thus developed from a fracture mechanics perspective, offering a novel predictive approach.

A WAY TO UNITE GEOLOGY AND GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING THROUGH THE RECENT UNDERSTANDING OF SOIL BEHAVIOUR AND DEVELOPMENT IN MATHEMATICAL MODELS

Geoinformatics, 1996
Nearly all engineering structures are supported in some way on natural earth materials; this inevitably creates an interaction between geological conditions and foundation analysis, design and construction. Thus, both geologists and geotechnical engineers have a vital role to play in many engineering operations which interact with the ground.

Correlation Between Geotechnical Indexes and Landslide Occurrence in Southwestern Cyprus Using GIS and Machine Learning

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering
Landslides are significantly influenced by the properties of the geological materials. As such, effective landslide susceptibility and hazard assessment necessitates the use of carefully selected and well-organized spatial data on geology and ground ...
