Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Seismic Damage Model for Regular Structures

open access: yesInternational journal for engineering modelling, 2003
Seismic damage model of regular structures is analysed. It is based on following assumptions: Seismic response of regular structures (symmetric plans and constant vertical stiffness) can be well interpreted by using SDOF system as a mathematical model of the structures. Response parameters of structure as ductility, stiffness change, energy balance and

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

Influence of damage degree of recycled coarse aggregate concrete-filled steel tube columns strengthened with envelope steel jacket under seismic load

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
In order to discuss the influence of damage degree of recycled coarse aggregate concrete-filled steel tube columns strengthened with envelope steel jacket (ESJ) under seismic load, eight columns were designed and manufactured to simulate seismic loading,

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...

A fatigue damage model for seismic response of RC structures [PDF]

open access: yesComputers & Structures, 2000
Numerous damage models have been developed in order to analyze seismic behavior. Among the different possibilities existing in the literature, it is very clear that models developed along the lines of continuum damage mechanics are more consistent with the definition of damage as a phenomenon with mechanical consequences because they include explicitly

An optimizing microseismic method for rock burst early warning based on mining production process

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A classification early warning method of rock burst based on hourly microseismic data is proposed, which can be combined with the on‐site production process to provide more timely warning. Abstract Microseismic (MS) events have been reported in nearly every coal mining country, which could well lead to rock burst in underground coal mines.
