Modulus of Elasticity of Concretes from Polish and Ukrainian Crushed Aggregates from Igneous Rocks

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2014
Test results concern modulus of elasticity and compressive strength of ordinary concretes made of various coarse aggregates from igneous rocks. Test results of some properties of these aggregates (3 crushed granites, 3 basalts, granodiorite, natural ...

Experimental and smoothed particle hydrodynamics‐finite element method simulation investigation of synergistic erosion mechanism of gangue‐based abrasive water jets

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes an eco‐friendly coal permeability enhancement technique by utilizing mine waste gangue as an abrasive in high‐pressure water jets. Integrating erosion experiments with smoothed particle hydrodynamics‐finite element method coupled simulations, the research study elucidates the flow field dynamics and a nonlinear solid–liquid ...

Combination of CO 2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ storage and geothermal energy production in porous and fractured superhot geothermal systems

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract depicts the workflow for porous‐ and fractured‐media simulations, where stochastically generated discrete natural fractures are required for the fracture‐media simulation. Abstract CO 2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ leakage is one of the main risks and barriers to geologic carbon storage. However, under the high‐temperature and high‐pressure

Multi‐factor coupling effects in hydraulic fracturing of laminated shale: Experimental insights and physics‐informed neural network‐driven optimization

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study establishes a multi‐factor coupling framework for predicting breakdown pressure in laminated shale by integrating experimental hydraulic fracturing tests, physics‐informed neural networks (PINNs), and Sobol sensitivity analysis. It reveals how differential stress, the bedding dip angle, and the injection rate interact to influence fracture ...

Stochastic and deterministic processes influencing mountain mire diatom communities across spatial scales

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how deterministic and stochastic processes influence the shape of microorganism community assembly across different spatial scales is essential for disentangling biodiversity patterns. Mires are nutrient‐poor and heterogeneous wetlands that form isolated habitats supporting highly diverse diatom assemblages, particularly in mountainous ...

Maximising trait evenness promotes the recovery of plant species richness in managed grasslands

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Land‐use intensification threatens biodiversity, and restoring degraded ecosystems remains challenging due to the difficulty of identifying the rules governing community assembly and dynamics. Investigating the temporal dynamics of trait‐abundance distributions (TADs) along long‐term time series offers a promising approach to disentangle the influence ...

Bridging Policy Gaps in Transition Times: How Local Actors Navigate Low Policy Coherence for Advancing a Circular Built Environment

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The construction sector is a major contributor to the climate crisis, accounting for over one‐third of global energy‐related CO2 emissions. In response, the European Commission identified the circular economy as a means of achieving green growth and prioritized the construction sector in its Circular Economy Action Plan.

The Seepage Characteristics of Single Rough Joint of Granite Based on NMR Technology: A Modified Cubic Law

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The low‐field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements are applied to investigate the seepage characteristics of the single rough joint. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the seepage characteristics of granite specimens with single‐joint channel under the different roughness, confining pressures and seepage pressures.

Research on Crack Propagation and Stress Propagation in Coal‐Rock Combinations Under Different In Situ Stresses Subjected to Blasting Loads

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A stress wave propagation model for coal‐rock combinations under in situ stress was established. Taking a coal mine in Huainan, China as the engineering background, isotropic and anisotropic numerical models were constructed. Field engineering practices were carried out to verify the reliability of the conclusions.
