Optimization of Blasting‑Induced Roof Cutting Parameters in Key Stratum and Its Application in Gob‑Side Entry Retention Technology

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study addresses hard roof coal seam conditions by optimizing key stratum blasting‐cutting parameters through theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and field tests. It proposes calculation methods for blast hole spacing and delay timing based on stress wave theory, controlling roadway deformation within 35 mm, thereby enhancing resource ...

Spectral analysis and self-adjusting mechanism for oscillation phenomenon in hydrogen-oxygen continuously rotating detonation engine

open access: yes, 2015
The continuously rotating detonation engine(CRDE)is a new concept of engines for aircraft and spacecraft.Quasi-stable continuously rotating detonation(CRD)can be observed in an annular combustion chamber,but the sustaining,stabilizing and adjusting ...

Remote Sensing for Irrigation Water Management—The State of the Art and Prospects for Near‐Future Operations

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A recent UN report describes many regions as facing ‘water bankruptcy,’ a condition in which available water resources can no longer meet existing demands. In practice, this means irrigation will likely bear the greatest burden of future water‐use reductions, a complicated and fraught decision to make given its critical role in food security ...

Design and Experimentation of a Premixed Rotating Detonation Engine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Desire for a more efficient air breathing engine has shifted research attention to the Rotating Detonation Engine (RDE). Detonation is a more efficient combustion process than deflagration and provides a pressure gain.

Continuous Detonation Combustor Operating on a Methane–Oxygen Mixture: Test Fires, Thrust Performance, and Thermal State

open access: yesAerospace
Test fires of a rotating detonation engine (RDE) annular combustor operating on a methane–oxygen mixture were conducted. Compared to the original RDE combustor previously tested, it was modified in terms of changing the layout of the water cooling system,

Where Projects Fail: Geospatial Evidence of Delays and Cancellations in Chinese Development Finance

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Delays and cancellations can severely undermine the effectiveness of development finance. Yet, little systematic evidence exists on where and why these disruptions occur within the rapidly expanding portfolio of Chinese‐financed development projects in Africa.

Monitoring shallow geothermal aquifers with active‐source distributed acoustic sensing: A prognostic feasibility study on the University of Leeds Geothermal Campus

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom's shallow aquifers offer significant but underdeveloped geothermal energy resource. Seismic methods can help address this by improving the understanding of aquifer heterogeneity and potentially allowing long‐term monitoring of thermal plumes.
