Effects of Fine‐Grained Particles and Sodium Chloride Solution on Physical Properties and Residual Strength of Granite Residual Soils: An Experimental Study

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Stability analyses of earth structures composed of granite residual soils (GRSs) are consistently essential, particularly under significant vibrational loading. In these analyses, it is stressed that the residual strength ought to be applied instead of peak strength.

Research on Predicting Mine Earthquakes Based on Deep Learning Time‐Series Methods

open access: yesShock and Vibration, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
As the depth and intensity of coal mining in China continue to increase, the frequency and intensity of coal mine earthquakes are also rising exponentially. The occurrence of strong mine earthquakes may result in dynamic disasters, such as impact ground pressure, which pose a significant threat to the lives and properties of individuals residing in ...
