Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Geothermal exploration using the magnetotelluric method
, 2016 One of the requirements to realize electricity production from geothermal energy in the Netherlands is the exploration of the deep subsurface. Currently, detailed geological information below 5 kilometer is sparse.

The Geothermal District Heating System on the Grado Island (North-eastern Adriatic Sea).
, 2015 The feasibility of a geothermal district heating pilot-plant on Grado Island, northeastern Adriatic Sea (Italy), was the result of the Grado geothermal Project, Phase 1, completed in 2008 by the Regione Friuli Venezia Giulia, mostly supported by European

Numerical model of the Tikitere geothermal system
, 2023 The Tikitere geothermal field is one of the 21 high-enthalpy geothermal fields in the Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ) in New Zealand. The field is renowned for the tourist attraction Hell’s Gate, which consists of many natural geothermal surface features ...

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...
