Upper bound limit analysis of coral reef limestone cavern roof stability incorporating a tension‐shear failure mechanism with tensile‐strength cut‐off

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
For the roof of coral reef limestone caverns, a novel tension‐shear composite failure mechanism was developed. The most critical tensile crack model was identified using a hybrid optimization algorithm, and the stability of the cavern roof was analyzed accordingly.

Orthopyroxene-bearing magmatism of the “Plateau des lacs” syncline (Imilchil, Central High Atlas, Morocco): insights from mineralogy, geochemistry and Sm-Nd isotopes

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Central High Atlas of Morocco has been the site of an extensive transitional to alkali mafic magmatism from Middle Jurassic (B1 event) to Lower Cretaceous (B2 event).

The mineralogy, geochemistry, and petrogenesis of the grønnedal-íka alkaline igneous complex, south-west Greenland [PDF]

, 1989
At 1299±17 Ma (Blaxland et al, 1978), the Grønnedal-Íka is the oldest of the Gardar centres, situated in the extreme north-west of the province. Hare-earth clement (REE) trends suggest that the nepheline-syenites which make up the bulk of the complex ...

Probabilistic prediction of rate‐dependent rock strength using natural gradient boosting and Gaussian process regression

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Probabilistic natural gradient boosting and Gaussian process regression models accurately predict rate‐dependent rock strength across lithologies. Static strength and strain rate dominate, while geometric factors have minimal influence, enabling interpretable and uncertainty‐aware predictions for dynamic geomechanical applications. Abstract The dynamic

Rock mechanical properties under reconstructed deep in situ thermo–hydro–mechanical conditions: Implications for CO₂‐related injection scenarios

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates a reconstructed in situ thermo‐hydro‐mechanical (THM) framework in which porosity serves as the central variable linking stress, pore pressure, and temperature to evolving mechanical properties of rocks. Under burial conditions, in situ stress, pore pressure, and temperature jointly govern volumetric strain and ...

Explainable hybrid stacking ensemble method for hard rock pillar stability prediction and engineering applications

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This research proposes an interpretable hybrid stacking ensemble framework, optimized by the Sparrow Search Algorithm, to enhance hard rock pillar stability prediction. By integrating six machine learning models—k‐nearest neighbors, support vector machines, random forests, Gradient Boosting Decision Tree, eXtreme Gradient Boosting, and Light Gradient ...

The Olokun head reconsidered

Afrique Archéologie Arts, 2013
The opportunity was taken in 2010 to carry out a full scientific and technical examination of the brass head from Ife, popularly known as the Olokun head, first published in 1912 by Leo Frobenius, together with a selection of other Ife heads that came to

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.
