Investigation on the failure evolution characteristics of surrounding rock in deep cross‐fault roadway: Based on physical model test and numerical simulation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the failure evolution characteristics of deep cross‐fault roadway surrounding rock under excavation support and periodic weighting. Periodic weighting readily induces fault activation, with the spatial distribution of failed rock masses being controlled by the fault strike and dip.

Public Opinion About Community Participation in Natural Resources Governance: A Population Survey in Indonesia and Malaysia

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The international conservation and natural resources communities have increasingly embraced the principle of community participation. This rhetoric around participation has gained power and influence in setting countries' agendas for natural resources governance, largely without a sound understanding of public opinion on the issues.

Effects of Camber of S‐Series Airfoils on Aerodynamic Performance, Entropy Generation Rate, Irreversibility, and Second Law Efficiency of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Due to the depletion of fossil fuels, enhancing wind turbine efficiency is crucial. Utilizing airfoils with high lift‐to‐drag ratios significantly improves power generation by optimizing aerodynamic parameters. Furthermore, entropy generation analysis serves as an effective method for design optimization by minimizing energy losses and exergy ...
