Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract The long‐term viability of Jatropha curcas as a biodiesel feedstock has been widely debated. Many early initiatives failed to deliver consistent economic returns despite promising environmental attributes. This study re‐evaluated J. curcas‐based systems within an integrated environmental–economic framework, focusing on their potential role in ...

Numerical Simulation on Damage and Failure Mechanism of Rock under Combined Multiple Strain Rates
Shock and Vibration, 2018 During underground hard-rock mining, the drilling and blasting method currently remains the most economical excavation method, and the rock may experience a multistrain-rate spectrum under quasi-static, dynamic, and rheological loading conditions and ...

Numerical Shear Tests on the Scale Effect of Rock Joints under CNL and CND Conditions
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 The scale effect of rock joint shear behavior is an important subject in the field of rock mechanics. There is yet a lack of consensus regarding whether the shear strength of rock joints increases, decreases, or remains unchanged as the joint size ...

Impact of global seismicity on sea level change assessment
, 2005 We analyze the effect of seismic activity on sealevel variations, by computing the time-dependent vertical crustal movement and geoid change due to coseismic deformations and postseismic relaxation effects.

Magnitude-Dependent Omori Law: Empirical Study and Theory
, 2004 We propose a new physically-based ``multifractal stress activation'' model of earthquake interaction and triggering based on two simple ingredients: (i) a seismic rupture results from activated processes giving an exponential dependence on the local ...
