Instability mechanism and failure characteristics of underground cavern in block system under the action of seismic waves

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roof‐positioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.

Deriving micro- to macro-scale seismic velocities from ice-core c axis orientations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
One of the great challenges in glaciology is the ability to estimate the bulk ice anisotropy in ice sheets and glaciers, which is needed to improve our understanding of ice-sheet dynamics.

Detectable seismic consequences of the interaction of a primordial black hole with Earth

open access: yes, 2012
Galaxies observed today are likely to have evolved from density perturbations in the early universe. Perturbations that exceeded some critical threshold are conjectured to have undergone gravitational collapse to form primordial black holes (PBHs) at a ...

Advancing mine pillar design: Evaluating traditional methods and integrating AI for enhanced stability of pillars in the Great Dyke, Zimbabwe

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
B1 is bord width 1, B2 is bord width 2, L is the pillar length, W is the pillar width, red color and letter A represent the pillars, and white color and number 1 represent excavated areas. Pstress is the average pillar stress; σv is the vertical component of the virgin stress, MPa; and e is the areal extraction ratio. e = B o B o + B P ${\rm{e}}=\frac{{

Dynamic response of offshore wind turbine monopile foundations in layered soils under wind, wave and earthquake actions

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
Earthquakes occur frequently in China’s southeast coastal areas. Therefore, in this region, offshore wind turbine (OWT) structures are highly likely to be simultaneously affected by wind, waves and earthquakes. Firstly, based on the wave theory and Snell’

Dynamic Response Analysis of Buried Drainage Pipes for Polymer Grouting Trenchless Rehabilitation under the Traveling Wave Effect

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
The polymer grouting nonexcavation repair technology has been widely used in the repair of underground pipeline leaks, but the seismic response to the polymer repair pipeline is currently using a consistent excitation of seismic input without considering

Fe alloy slurry and a compacting cumulate pile across Earth's inner-core boundary

open access: yes, 2019
Seismic observations show a reduced compressional-wave gradient at the base of the outer core relative to the preliminary reference Earth model and seismic wave asymmetry between the east-west hemispheres at the top of the inner core.

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Properties of Flares-Generated Seismic Waves on the Sun

open access: yes, 2005
The solar seismic waves excited by solar flares (``sunquakes'') are observed as circular expanding waves on the Sun's surface. The first sunquake was observed for a flare of July 9, 1996, from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) space mission ...
