Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Long-period gratings in chalcogenide fibers

open access: yes, 2010
Les verres chalcogénures sont des matériaux optiques connus depuis 50 ans. Ils sont fortement non-linéaires, transparents dans l'infrarouge et photosensibles à la lumière visible. Grâce à des percées récentes du côté des procédés de fabrication, leurs applications dans divers domaines sont devenus possibles, notamment dans les capteurs biochimiques, le

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Seismic analysis and design of tunnels within fault ground: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The research methods of seismic response of tunnels within fault ground, including field investigations, analytical solutions, physical experiments, and numerical simulations, and seismic countermeasures are discussed. The present study examines the shortcomings and limitations of the current research and design, and puts forward proposals for future ...

Post‐Meal Activity and Eating Disorder Behaviors: An Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mealtimes are associated with heightened distress among individuals with eating disorders (EDs) and are frequently accompanied by ritualized eating behaviors that maintain psychopathology. In inpatient settings, post‐meal rest is commonly prescribed to prevent compensatory behaviors.

Climatic niche divergence and high‐elevation adaptation promoted rapid diversification of Pimoa spiders in Pan‐Himalaya

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The Pan‐Himalayan region harbors exceptional biodiversity, yet the origins and underlying mechanisms driving this remarkable diversity remain poorly understood, especially among species‐rich invertebrates. Pimoa spiders exhibit an intercontinental disjunct distribution across three major mountain regions: the Rockies, the Alps, and the Pan‐Himalaya ...

Microclimate mediates the strength and direction of avian biotic interactions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Theory predicts that the strength and direction of species interactions can shift from being competitive in benign environments toward being facilitative in stressful environments. However, the environmental context dependency of species interactions has rarely been tested in animal communities.

Global threats, local opportunities: ice‐related landforms provide refugia for high‐elevation plants and arthropods

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Ice‐related landforms in mountain areas have been hypothesized to play a key role in the survival of cold‐adapted species threatened by climate change. However, our understanding of such landforms acting as refugia remains speculative. Here we analyse occurrence data, collected through a standardized sampling at 471 sampling points across the European ...
