Aero‐breakup of droplets: Recent progress and outlook
This work systematically reviews the recent progress of droplet aero‐breakup studies. The discussion covers the research history, theoretical framework, new breakup mode discoveries, influence of droplet fluid properties, scenarios of multi‐droplet and droplet cloud, and finally, an outlook for future explorations is presented. Abstract Aero‐breakup of

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology
This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

Mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock burst in coal seam mining beneath mountainous areas
This study reveals the mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock bursts during coal mining beneath mountainous areas. The advancing working face induces nonuniform fracturing of the overburden. The detached mountain mass then undergoes a seesaw‐type rotational movement around a shifting pivot, driving the primary fracture through a characteristic “open‐close ...
