Forests as a natural seismic metamaterial: Rayleigh wave bandgaps induced by local resonances
Scientific Reports, 2016 We explore the thesis that resonances in trees result in forests acting as locally resonant metamaterials for Rayleigh surface waves in the geophysics context.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Based on acoustic emission response characteristics, it can be more accurate to identify the damage evolution process of coal under the combined dynamic and static loads, reveal the moment corresponding to coal damage, and identify the characteristics of coal failure. The research results are conducive to the further use of acoustic emission monitoring

Fractional Time Derivative Seismic Wave Equation Modeling for Natural Gas Hydrate
Energies, 2020 Simulation of the seismic wave propagation in natural gas hydrate (NGH) is of great importance. To finely portray the propagation of seismic wave in NGH, attenuation properties of the earth’s medium which causes reduced amplitude and dispersion need to ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Time‐dependent recovery of microcrack damage and seismic wave speeds in deformed limestone
, 2015 Limestone samples were deformed up to 5% inelastic axial strain at an effective confining pressure Peff=50 MPa in the cataclastic flow regime and subsequently maintained under constant static stress conditions (either isostatic of triaxial) for extended ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Surface-wave imaging with nonrandom traffic seismic sourcesKey points
Earthquake SciencePassive surface wave imaging has been a powerful tool for near-surface characterization in urban areas, which extracts surface wave signals from ambient seismic noise and then estimates subsurface shear wave velocity by inversion of the measured phase ...
