Unstable Pillar Failure under Soft Loading Condition

Lithosphere, 2022
Pillar rockburst is an unstable pillar failure and one of the most hazardous problems in the underground mining engineering of deep hard-rock mines. In order to study the mechanism of unstable pillar failure, laboratory tests, numerical simulation, and ...

English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2020 resurgence of Black Lives Matter (BLM) mobilised students in England to demand greater representation of racially minoritised voices in English curriculums—a call highlighted by stark inequity: just 1.5% of GCSE texts studied are by racially minoritised authors, despite racially minoritised students comprising 38.0% of the student ...

Integrated Physical Microstructure and Mechanical Performance Analysis of the Failure Mechanism of Weakly Cemented Sandstone Under Long-Term Water Immersion

Applied Sciences
The duration of water immersion significantly affects the mechanical response of rock materials. This study investigated the weakly cemented sandstone from the Wulagen Open-pit Mine to examine how varying immersion times affected the mineral composition,

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.

Forecasting of induced seismicity rates from hydraulic fracturing activities using physics-based models for Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis: a case study [PDF]

, 2021
One of the major challenges in seismic hazard analysis for induced seismicity is the forecasting of future seismicity rates, which are described by the Gutenberg–Richter parameters (a and b-values from the earthquake magnitude frequency distributions ...

Research on the Dynamic Response Patterns of Layered Slopes Considering Non-Homogeneity Under Blast-Induced Vibration Effects

Applied Sciences
To investigate the dynamic wave propagation characteristics and dynamic response of heterogeneous layered slopes under a blasting vibration, a modeling method considering the slope’s layered dip angle and heterogeneity was proposed. Different dip jointed

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...
