Forecasting the Rate of Induced Seismicity as a Neural Temporal Point Process
Abstract Forecasting is an essential part of risk mitigation, where the mitigation efficacy depends strongly on the quality of forecasts. We explore the neural temporal point process as a deep learning framework to forecast induced earthquakes. We train our deep learning model using numerous enhanced geothermal systems and hydraulic fracturing test ...

Inelastic Dilatancy as a Mechanism for Coseismic Fluid Depressurization of a Shallow Fault Zone
Abstract Hydrologic observations and experimental studies indicate that inelastic dilation from coseismic fault damage can cause substantial pore pressure reduction, yet most near‐fault hydromechanical models ignore such inelastic effects. Here, we present a 3‐D groundwater flow model incorporating the effects of inelastic dilation based on an ...

Assessing pavement sustainability requires jointly evaluating structural performance and environmental impacts, yet these dimensions are often analyzed separately. This study proposes an integrated framework combining mechanistic–empirical pavement design and life cycle assessment (LCA) to quantify the structural–environmental trade‐off associated with

Mutual interference and different excavation speeds during the construction of twin‐tube tunnel have intensified the complexity of groundwater seepage field damage, while the small‐interval tunnel has more complex evolution characteristics than traditional twin‐tube tunnel due to its small distance between the double holes, which poses greater ...

Creep Behavior and Damage Modeling of Red Sandstone Under Cyclic Water Pressure
Rock slopes in reservoir drawdown zones are subjected to the coupled effects of cyclic water‐level fluctuations and sustained in situ stress, which significantly influence their long‐term stability. In the Three Gorges Reservoir, seasonal water‐level variations induce repeated water pressure loading–unloading, accelerating time‐dependent deformation ...

Reinforced soil technology is widely applied in slope stabilization, yet the optimal configuration of reinforcement remains a key design challenge. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of vertical rib‐reinforced and inclined‐reinforced geogrid layouts through scaled physical model tests (1:10) and finite element simulations using MIDAS GTS.

An active control method using negative Poisson′s ratio (NPR) anchor cables is proposed to tackle problems like significant deformations of surrounding rock due to the mutual disturbance between closely spaced twin tunnels in layered slate. Rock mechanics tests indicated a U‐shaped variation in the peak strength of slate across joint dip angles from 0°

The Shunbei fault‐controlled reservoir fracture development has a strong stress sensitivity. With the extraction of oil and gas, the effective stress on fractures and the matrix rock increases, resulting in the gradual closure of the fractures, thus reducing the inflow capacity.

ABSTRACT Understanding solute transport in heterogeneous porous media under variable loading is essential for effective pollution mitigation. However, most existing studies rely on one‐ or two‐dimensional simplifications, limiting their capacity to capture three‐dimensional stress–transport interactions.

Abstract Coastal depositional environments, particularly salt marshes, are among the morphologies most vulnerable to relative sea‐level rise (RSLR). Their ability to withstand changing conditions is closely related to their capacity to accrete sediment, gaining elevation at a rate comparable to RSLR. Sedimentation, decomposition of organic remains, and
