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

A slab in depth: Three‐dimensional geometry and evolution of the Indo‐Australian plate
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2007 Geoscientists use plate tectonics to explain many aspects of both continental evolution and evolution of the planet as a whole. The subduction of material at convergent plate boundaries forms a fundamental component to the theory of plate tectonics ...

Dynamic response at the terminus of oblique intersecting joints subjected to stress waves
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study derives the propagation equation for stress waves impinging upon nonlinear oblique intersecting joints. It analyzes the dynamic response at the terminus of nonlinear oblique intersecting joints subjected to stress waves. Abstract To investigate the dynamic response at the terminus of oblique intersecting joints subjected to stress waves, a ...

Regarding the discussion about the banded magnetic anomalies of the oceans
Геофизический журналThe author supports the theory of plate tectonics with a plume component, pointing out the weak aspects of the arguments regarding the banded magnetic anomalies (BMA) of the ocean floor, which are the subject of discussions between supporters and ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This research study employs analysis system (ANSYS) fluid–structure interaction simulations to investigate the generation and attenuation of vibration signals resulting from freezing pipe fractures in artificial ground freezing projects. By evaluating key variables—including frozen soil elastic modulus, brine inlet pressure, and external pipe pressure ...

Plate Tectonics with GIS [PDF]
, 2006 The concept of Plate Tectonics involves piecing together a wide variety of evidence to build a picture. This includes the location of earthquakes, volcanoes, mountains, fossils, and other paleoclimate data. The theory of Plate Tectonics is driven

Diversification and biogeography of Rhacophoridae – a model testing approach
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 A central focus of evolutionary biology is to understand species diversity by studying how they arrived at their current geographic distributions. The biogeography of the Old World tree frogs in the family Rhacophoridae has been extensively studied ...
