Investigation on the mechanical behavior of the multiple‐layered lining structure of a water conveyance tunnel with high internal water pressure

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents large‐scale similarity model testing (geometric ratio 3.6) of an innovative multiple‐layered lining system—comprising exterior precast segments, middle self‐compacting concrete, and an interior steel pipe—for high‐pressure (0.75 MPa) water conveyance tunnels.

Seismic anisotropy in siliciclastic reservoir rocks [PDF]

, 2006
The interpretation of geophysical field measurements of seismic anisotropy is presently limited by our knowledge of the controls of the elastic anisotropy of sedimentary rocks in the subsurface. Traditionally, laboratory ultrasonic velocity measurements

Borehole seismic methods for opencast coal exploration [PDF]

, 1990
Surface seismic techniques lack the resolution to image the top 100m or so of the earth's surface necessary for opencast coal exploration. The work reported in this thesis is the development of borehole seismic methods making use of the closely spaced ...

Energy evolution‐based damage quantification and failure prediction of fault zone tunnel lining concrete: A novel acoustic emission–strain energy coupling approach

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the damage evolution and failure mechanisms of tunnel lining concrete in active fault zones through uniaxial compression tests integrated with acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. A strong linear correlation is identified between the AE cumulative absolute energy and the total strain energy, providing a reliable energy‐based ...

Reusing depleted oil and gas wells for geothermal energy: Feasibility, challenges, and a decision‐making framework for sustainable conversion

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract presents a structured decision‐support framework for assessing the feasibility of converting depleted oil and gas wells into geothermal energy systems. The left panel illustrates a comprehensive, multi‐stage decision‐making framework progressing from prefeasibility screening and technical–economic analysis to policy alignment ...

Seismic performance of underground facilities [PDF]

, 1982
A workshop was held in Augusta, GA, February 11-13, 1981 to review and assess the state-of-the-art for determining and predicting earthquake damage to underground facilities. The papers presented related to data collection and analysis, modeling, and repository design.

Dynamic prediction of coal and gas outburst risk based on quantitative analysis of stress–energy evolution and adaptive correction

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study quantitatively analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution of stress redistribution ahead of the working face by integrating coal seam distribution, tectonic stress anomalies, gas pressure, and mining‐induced disturbances. An R‐value criterion for coal and gas outburst (CGO) risk assessment was established based on energy principles.

Mitigating surcharge‐induced column‐head cracking in double‐deck shield tunnels using hyperelastic bearing joints

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A staged three‐dimensional nonlinear soil–structure interaction (SSI) model is established, in which the initial geostress state, tunnel excavation, lining installation, delayed activation of the internal frame, and subsequent surcharge loading are simulated sequentially.

Expected Annual Loss as a Global Metric for Seismic Performance Assessment of Existing Buildings

Buildings
The assessment of seismic performance of existing buildings has traditionally focused on structural safety and damage limitation, often neglecting the explicit quantification of the associated economic consequences.

Advances in research on seismic performance and design methods for pile-supported wharves Part Ⅲ: Seismic performance of batter piles and pile-superstructure connections

Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2017
The main reasons resulting in the poor seismic performance of the open type wharf with standing piles are clarified by examining extensive documented case studies of the damaged pile-supported wharves.
