A novel construction approach for the pore structure model principally focuses on the controllable roundness of rock particles

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Particle rounding effects comparison of different methods: (a), (b), and (c) are the rounding results using the B‐spline curve method with different R; (d), (e), and (f) are the results of vertex rounding substitution method with different rounding radii.

Characterization of the permeability evolution of hard and soft rocks under hydro‐mechanical coupling conditions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The permeability variation of rocks during complete stress–strain processes was investigated. A mathematical model describing the influence of rock damage on permeability was constructed. The permeability–stress relationship between soft rock and hard rock was proposed.

Damage modeling of CO2 injection well interfaces under coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical behavior

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper presents an investigation of CO2 injection well damage evolution considering different injection temperatures and the presence of a pre‐existing defect. The main outcome is that the accurate prediction of well leakage risk requires characteristics such as initial defects to be understood and represented in any modeling efforts. Abstract This

Data‐driven analysis of the spatial dependence of grouting efficiency during tunnel excavation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Prediction of grouting efficiency using machine learning is enhanced by adopting a training strategy that accounts for the grouting process across multiple rounds. Abstract Grouting with water–cement mixtures is the most widely used and cost‐effective method for managing excess water inflow during tunnel construction.

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...
