Evaluation of Modeling Assumptions for Predicting Structural Damage and Train Derailment Under Earthquake Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Containment Structures in Nuclear Power Plants Considering Alkali‐Silica Reaction

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study quantifies the influence of alkali‐silica reaction (ASR) on the seismic fragility of prestressed concrete containment structures in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Global collapse was considered as the governing failure mode to maintain consistency with current risk assessment frameworks, and was captured using a finite element model ...

Research on the Laws of Destructive Patterns and Control Measures of Overlying Rock in High‐Efficiency Large‐Scale Mining Faces

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
With the advancement of coal mining technology driving the development of working faces toward increased mining heights and extended lengths, the enlargement of face dimensions has led to expanded overlying strata failure zones and intensified ground pressure manifestations. Consequently, traditional methods for determining hydraulic support resistance

Machine Learning‐Driven Classification and Production Capacity Prediction of Tight Sandstone Reservoirs: A Case Study of the Taiyuan Formation, Ordos Basin

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
On the basis of core and log data, a Bayesian‐Optimized Random Forest model achieved 92.76% accuracy in classifying tight sandstone reservoirs. A gray relational analysis‐derived evaluation index shows > 80% consistency with actual gas zones. ABSTRACT Tight sandstone gas (TSG), an unconventional oil–gas resource, has heterogeneous reservoirs ...

Coupled Fluid–Structure–Acoustic Analysis of Flow‐Induced Noise Control Using an Elastic Baffle in a Micro Channel

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This research explores how fluid flow, structural movement, and sound interact in an elastic baffle system. Using a numerical approach based on the finite element method, the study analyzes how noise and vibrations change with different baffle configurations. The findings reveal that shortening the baffle by half reduces noise transmission by 9%, while

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Site-specific seismic hazard analysis

open access: yes, 2010
Current seismic hazard analyses are generally performed using probabilistic methods. When dealing with a specific site, the typical methodology involves using a ground motion prediction equation (GMPE) to estimate the rock outcrop ground motion and associated variability, then the ground motion is propagated to the ground surface by site response ...
