Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The evolution of the temperature field and frozen wall under different fracture conditions was examined by an artificial ground freezing‐based thermal‐hydraulic coupled model. It was observed that fracture inclination affects the interaction extent of freezing pipes and fracture, while phase transition extent is the dominant factor for heat transfer in

Slow earthquakes release a similar amount of energy as fast earthquakes but over a much longer time scale. While this difference makes them less dangerous to the public, their frequent occurrence signals that faults move almost continuously.

The use of Terrestrial Laser Scanning in characterizing active tectonic processes from postseismic slip to the long term growth of normal faults [PDF]
, 2012 This thesis investigates two main hypotheses regarding uncertainty in the measurement of paleoseismic offsets used to estimate fault activity and paleoearthquake magnitudes on normal faults: (1) That variations in fault geometry have a significant effect

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.A novel shear‐lag model, validated by pull‐out tests, incorporates a constant bond stress stage to predict the complete load–displacement response of grouted rock bolts, providing a new tool for optimizing anchorage length and material toughness in deep underground engineering. Abstract The stability of rock masses in deep underground excavations, such

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Aluminum‐enhanced afterburning renders AE explosives more hazardous than conventional ones. Corrugated steel linings reduce far‐field AE blast overpressure by ~50% through wave reflection and dissipation. The developed model accurately predicts peak pressure (<10% error) and arrival time (<3% error), supporting protective design.
