Regulatory Convergence and Divergence in ESG Reporting in the Indo‐Pacific Region

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting has evolved significantly globally over the past few decades. Many countries are now signatories to international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, with increasing commitments to emissions reduction targets and the

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

A rock brittleness index based on the postpeak energy release rate and damage surface characteristics for brittle hard rock

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines energy evolution in rock rupture via triaxial direct shear tests, exploring the impact of confining pressure and temperature on fracture surface randomness. A novel energy‐based brittleness index is proposed, validated experimentally, and compared with existing methods for reliability and accuracy.

Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Stability of High-Level Radioactive Waste Forms [PDF]

, 2001
High-level waste (HLW) glass compositions, processing schemes, limits on waste content, and corrosion/dissolution release models are dependent on an accurate knowledge of melting temperatures and thermochemical values. Unfortunately, existing models for predicting these temperatures are empirically-based, depending on extrapolations of experimental ...

A Thermally Robust Luminescent Antimony Halide for Real‐Time Detection of Volatile Iodine at Elevated Temperatures

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Zero‐dimensional antimony halides drive efficient iodine capture through electron transfer and display rapid fluorescence quenching at 75°C (348 K), establishing the first luminescent sensor for real‐time I2 detection at elevated temperatures. ABSTRACT Real‐time monitoring of volatile molecular iodine (I2), a hazardous radioactive byproduct of nuclear ...
