Mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock burst in coal seam mining beneath mountainous areas

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock bursts during coal mining beneath mountainous areas. The advancing working face induces nonuniform fracturing of the overburden. The detached mountain mass then undergoes a seesaw‐type rotational movement around a shifting pivot, driving the primary fracture through a characteristic “open‐close ...

Geometry-dependent laser damage resistance of fused silica metastructures: a multiphysics simulation investigation

open access: yesOpen Physics
Their opto-thermo-mechanical response fundamentally constrains the reliability of dielectric metasurfaces under high-power laser irradiation. In this study, we systematically investigate the thermomechanical behavior of cylindrical fused silica ...

Influence Mechanisms of Spatial Optimization of the “Terraced Fields‐Gully Land Reclamation Project (GLRP)” Cascades on Erosion‐Transportation Processes in Watershed in the Loess Hilly‐Gully Region of China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terraced fields and the Gully Land Reclamation Project (GLRP) are important soil and water conservation measures, widely constructed in China's Loess Plateau and other ecologically fragile areas in the world. However, under large‐scale governance scenarios, the impacts of the “terraced fields‐GLRP” cascade system on water and sediment ...

On Saint-Venant’s principle in dynamic linear viscoelasticity [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly of Applied Mathematics, 1997
The Saint-Venant's principle (for elastostatics and elastodynamics) was earlier established in the linearized theory of quasi-static deformations for isotropic viscoelastic materials. Here the author extends the above principle to anisotropic bodies by investigating the spatial decay of dynamic viscoelastic processes in an anisotropic viscoelastic body

River Ice Processes Modelling: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River ice strongly influences hydrology, hydrodynamics, and ecosystems in cold regions, with an impact on flooding, hydropower generation, navigation, and aquatic habitats. Modeling river ice processes is therefore essential for both scientific understanding and operational management.

Surface and Boundary Corrections in Peridynamics Using Optimized Nodal Influence Weights

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 14, 30 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Peridynamics (PD), similarly to some other nonlocal continuum theories, exhibits truncated interaction horizons near free surfaces, cracks, and voids in bounded domains. This loss of neighbors causes artificial surface effects and inconsistencies in the derivative and energy operators that persist under discretization refinement, limiting PD ...

From Gauged to Ungauged: Using Catchment Morphology to Guide the Transfer of Physics‐Informed Neural Network Discharge Predictions

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study develops a transferability framework that combines ensemble clustering with hybrid PINN‐GRU models for discharge prediction in ungauged catchments. Using 10 catchment morphometrics, 117 subcatchments were grouped into four clusters, achieving strong within‐cluster transferability.

RS‐FloodXDepth: Enhancing Remote Sensing‐Derived Flood Extent and Estimating Flood Depth Using a Hydrologically Guided Region‐Growing Method and High‐Resolution DEMs

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Remote sensing imagery is widely utilized for mapping flood extents. However, sensor limitations and environmental conditions often reduce mapping capability. Factors such as obscuring clouds, terrain shadows, and dense tree canopies frequently lead to significant information gaps and omission errors, particularly in forests and urban areas ...
