Energy evolution‐based damage quantification and failure prediction of fault zone tunnel lining concrete: A novel acoustic emission–strain energy coupling approach

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the damage evolution and failure mechanisms of tunnel lining concrete in active fault zones through uniaxial compression tests integrated with acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. A strong linear correlation is identified between the AE cumulative absolute energy and the total strain energy, providing a reliable energy‐based ...

Reusing depleted oil and gas wells for geothermal energy: Feasibility, challenges, and a decision‐making framework for sustainable conversion

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract presents a structured decision‐support framework for assessing the feasibility of converting depleted oil and gas wells into geothermal energy systems. The left panel illustrates a comprehensive, multi‐stage decision‐making framework progressing from prefeasibility screening and technical–economic analysis to policy alignment ...

Renewable energy mapping in Northeastern Morocco: A geographic information system‐based comparison of geothermal, solar, and wind potential in the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen regions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract summarizes a geographic information system (GIS)‐based synthesis of renewable energy resources in Northeastern Morocco, focusing on the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen areas. It visually presents the spatial distribution of solar irradiation and wind energy potential derived from available datasets, alongside their relationship ...

Observational Evidence of a Very‐Low‐Frequency Earthquake (Mw 3.8) Leading to an Earthquake (Mw 4.2): Minto Flats Strike‐Slip Fault Zone, Central Alaska

Geophysical Research Letters
The physical conditions governing earthquake initiation are largely unknown, particularly in the minutes to seconds preceding rupture. While there is geodetic and seismic evidence of precursory activity in the hours to weeks prior to large earthquakes ...

Dynamic prediction of coal and gas outburst risk based on quantitative analysis of stress–energy evolution and adaptive correction

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study quantitatively analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution of stress redistribution ahead of the working face by integrating coal seam distribution, tectonic stress anomalies, gas pressure, and mining‐induced disturbances. An R‐value criterion for coal and gas outburst (CGO) risk assessment was established based on energy principles.

Mitigating surcharge‐induced column‐head cracking in double‐deck shield tunnels using hyperelastic bearing joints

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A staged three‐dimensional nonlinear soil–structure interaction (SSI) model is established, in which the initial geostress state, tunnel excavation, lining installation, delayed activation of the internal frame, and subsequent surcharge loading are simulated sequentially.

Developing a universal tunnel span classification from global tunnel databases

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A universal tunnel span classification system is introduced that incorporates tunnel span, cross‐sectional area, typical tunnel types, and intended uses. Representative flatness ratio values are also provided for each span class. The classification is derived from a comprehensive database of 450 tunnel profiles from 47 countries.

Bio‐based tannin‐loaded layered double hydroxides in epoxy coatings for smart corrosion protection of steel in underground infrastructure

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents a sustainable smart‐coating strategy for protecting underground steel infrastructures from chloride‐induced corrosion. Zinc‐aluminum layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and tannin‐loaded LDHs (LDH–TA) were incorporated into an epoxy matrix to provide both enhanced barrier properties and active, pH‐responsive inhibition.

Spatial and temporal variations of the 3-year earthquake swarm activities leading up to the M7.6 Noto Peninsula earthquake and interpretations of their activities

Earth, Planets and Space
The seismic swarm activity that began and expanded in four separate regions in the northern Noto Peninsula at the end of 2020 was followed by the M6.5 earthquake in May 2023, which cascaded into the M7.6 earthquake on New Year’s Day 2024.
