Cryptoendolith communities in Antarctic dry valley region sandstones: Potential analogues of Martian life-forms [PDF]
, 2003 We are studying cryptoendolith-bearing Antarctic sandstones, to determine if the microbes alter the elemental composition of the rocks. If there is an effect, then it might be a tracer for the presence of micro-organisms in martian surface ...

Gradational development of slaty cleavage to schistosity -an example from the Iberian Pyrite Belt, Spain- [PDF]
, 1994 The Iberian Pyrite Belt is an Upper Paleozoic succession which has been divided into the Phyllite-Quartzite Group, the Volcanic-Sliceous Complex and the Culm Group in ascending order from base to the top. The contacts among them are conformable.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This article aims to investigate the dynamic fracture response of fractured tunnel models under zero geological stress through physical experiments and numerical simulations. It further simulates the dynamic fracture characteristics of fractured tunnel models under geological stress ranging from 0 to 2.5 MPa using the numerical software AUTODYN ...

The albian-cenomanian boudary in the northern part of the Don-Medveditsa dislocations. Paper 1. The history of studying and the section descriptions [PDF]
Известия Саратовского университета. Новая серия: Серия Науки о ЗемлеThe Albian-Cenomanian rocks compose a single complex of terrigenous deposits over the Volga Region. Delineation of the boundaries of the Cretaceous system units generally tends to cause difficulties, accounted for by rare finds of the fossils.

Data‐driven analysis of the spatial dependence of grouting efficiency during tunnel excavation
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Prediction of grouting efficiency using machine learning is enhanced by adopting a training strategy that accounts for the grouting process across multiple rounds. Abstract Grouting with water–cement mixtures is the most widely used and cost‐effective method for managing excess water inflow during tunnel construction.
