Influence of the Number of Parallel Joints on the Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Rock-Like Features

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
The number and distribution of joints in rock are closely related to their physical and mechanical properties. In this paper, given the propagation law of explosive stress waves in jointed rock during rock blasting and the influence of joints on dynamic ...

Review of Thermally Activated Twisted Coiled Polymer Actuators: A Materials Science Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermally activated twisted and coiled polymer actuators (TCPAs) combine lightweight design, large deformation, and scalable fabrication for soft robotic and wearable applications. This review connects polymer structure, processing history, helix geometry, and thermomechanical characterization to actuator performance, highlighting current challenges in

Research on Damage Evolution Mechanism of Layered Rock Mass under Blasting Load

open access: yesBuildings
Rock mass consists of many discontinuities, such as faults, joints, etc., and layered joints are a common kind of rock mass structure. The joints affect the stress wave propagation, and blasting is an economical and efficient rock fragmentation method ...

Shear creep characteristics and constitutive model of hidden non-persistent joints

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
The joints control the boundary of the rock slope instability. A large number of joints in the natural world are not completely persistent, and are hidden inside the slope.

Role of Liquid Composition in the Transient Liquid Assisted Growth of Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7‐δ Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The Y supersaturation in the [Ba‐Cu(I/II)‐O] transient liquid composition is the driving force toward YBCO nucleation and growth in TLAG. Tuning the initial (Ba:Cu) molar ratio in the ink composition determines the YBCO epitaxial nucleation through supersaturation control.

Mechanisms of failure of jointed rock masses and the behaviour of steep slopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The geomorphological behaviour of steep jointed rock slopes has been studied using distinct element method computer models. In order to model steep slopes effectively, methodologies need to be combined from the studies of environmental modellers ...

Elastic moduli for fractured rock mass

open access: yes, 2013
The presence of joint discontinuities has long been recognized as an important factor influencing the mechanical behavior of rock masses. This paper proposes a stress-strain model for an assemblage of intact rock blocks separated by joint planes.
