Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Semi‐analytical solution for the stability of deep vertical shaft considering time‐dependent rock‐structure interaction

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel cavity contraction solution and multilayer shaft wall model were developed to analyze deep shaft stability, considering rock viscosity, support structures, and water pressure, with successful validation through a Hulusu Coal Mine case study.

A Global Plate Model Including Lithospheric Deformation Along Major Rifts and Orogens Since the Triassic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Global deep‐time plate motion models have traditionally followed a classical rigid plate approach, even though plate deformation is known to be significant.

Fracture evolution of a thick soft protection layer and the water inrush mechanism in overburden under longwall mining

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Mesozoic-Cenozoic mafic magmatism in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, Zagros Orogen (Western Iran): geochemical and isotopic inferences from Middle Jurassic and Late Eocene gabbros [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
One of the consequences of Neo-Tethys ocean subduction beneath the Central Iranian Micro-continent (CIMC) is the development of rare gabbroic intrusions in the Malayer-Boroujerd Plutonic Complex (MBPC) located in the Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SaSZ) of the ...

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation on the Progressive Breaking Law of Thick and Hard Rock Strata in Deep Mining

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This work reveals the “C‐Y,” double “Y,” “π,” and “Y” fracture modes of thick, hard strata and their progressive breaking process (O‐F‐R/S mode), providing a theoretical basis for controlling strong ground pressure in deep mining. ABSTRACT In response to the dynamic hazards caused by the fracture of thick‐hard strata in deep mining, this study ...

The thermal history of the Western Irish onshore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present here a low-temperature thermochronological study that combines the apatite fission-track and (U + Th)/He dating methods with a pseudo-vertical sampling approach to generate continuous and well-constrained temperature–time histories from the ...

Efficient Numerical Framework for Geothermal Energy Production Optimization in Fracture‐Controlled Reservoirs

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
We introduce an efficient open‐source numerical framework for the automated search for the placements of injection and production wells in hot fracture‐controlled reservoirs that sustainably optimize geothermal energy production. We model the reservoirs as discrete fracture networks in 3D. The fluid flow and heat transport in the reservoirs are modeled

Public Perceptions and Engagement for Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage: Literature Review With a Case Study of Utah, USA

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon dioxide capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a potential key to mitigating anthropogenic CO2 emissions and associated impacts on global climate change. Successful CCUS deployment hinges on both technological advancements and public support.

Stratigraphy of Tithonian (Ohauan-Puaroan ) marine beds near Port Waikato, New Zealand, and a redescription of Belemnopsis aucklandica (Hochstetter). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Some 1500 m of marine Ohauan and Puaroan strata in the Port Waikato region of New Zealand are restudied in an attempt to resolve lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic anomalies in published works.
