Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Influence of Error in Estimating Anisotropy Parameters on VTI Depth Imaging

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geophysics, 2016
Thin layers in sedimentary rocks lead to seismic anisotropy which makes the wave velocity dependent on the propagation angle. This aspect causes errors in seismic imaging such as mispositioning of migrated events if anisotropy is not accounted for.

Probabilistic prediction of rate‐dependent rock strength using natural gradient boosting and Gaussian process regression

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Probabilistic natural gradient boosting and Gaussian process regression models accurately predict rate‐dependent rock strength across lithologies. Static strength and strain rate dominate, while geometric factors have minimal influence, enabling interpretable and uncertainty‐aware predictions for dynamic geomechanical applications. Abstract The dynamic

Multiscale dilated denoising convolution with channel attention mechanism for micro-seismic signal denoising

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology
Denoising micro-seismic signals is paramount for ensuring reliable data for localizing mining-related seismic events and analyzing the state of rock masses during mining operations.

Performance-Based approach in seismic design of embedded retaining walls

open access: yes, 2008
The increasing use of the underground spaces and the last seismic events in the urban areas have driven many researchers of different countries to deepen the knowledge on the dynamic behaviour of the structure embedded in the subsoil.

Investigation on the failure evolution characteristics of surrounding rock in deep cross‐fault roadway: Based on physical model test and numerical simulation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the failure evolution characteristics of deep cross‐fault roadway surrounding rock under excavation support and periodic weighting. Periodic weighting readily induces fault activation, with the spatial distribution of failed rock masses being controlled by the fault strike and dip.

Seismic scattering signatures of small-scale heterogeneities: examples from the Mount Messenger Formation, New Zealand

open access: yes
Heterogeneity that is on a length scale just below that of a seismic wavelength is at the limit of resolution but may still cause significant wave scattering.

A seismic study of the mid- and lower-crust beneath the sea of Bothnia: BABEL line 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
In the Autumn of 1989, Durham University took part in the BABEL Project, a collaboration of scientists from five nations recording wide angle and normal incidence seismic data in the Baltic Shield.
