Study on Mechanical Properties of Gold Mine Tailings Stabilized by Composite Alkali-Activated Materials

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Gold mine tailings (GMTs) pose significant environmental challenges, and while alkali-activated materials (AAMs) have been widely used as sustainable alternatives to Portland cement for stabilizing geotechnical materials, further research is needed to ...

Consumer Acceptance of Enabling Agri‐Food Technologies for Sustainable Food Systems: Evidence From Italy

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition toward more sustainable and innovative agricultural systems increasingly relies on the integration of digital and enabling technologies (KETs). Although the technical and productive aspects of these innovations have been widely investigated, consumer acceptance remains less understood, despite its key role in fostering their ...

The Protective Effect of Isolation Piles on Deformation of Adjacent Existing Railways

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
The isolation pile is the main measure used to reduce the mutual influence between neighboring projects in engineering. In response to the issue of the protective effect of isolation pile technology on the deformation of adjacent existing railway ...

Spatially resolved 23Na magnetic resonance dispersion measurement in porous media

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Quantitative 23Na MRI was employed to analyze dispersion in realistic core plug samples and was compared with the conventional breakthrough curve. 23Na MRI provided a more effective aassessment of core plug heterogeneity than the conventional method. Abstract Tracer tests are widely used in the petroleum industry to assess reservoir core plugs, relying

Rock mechanics on a geological base /

open access: yes, 1995
Until a few years ago, hydropower, road tunneling and mining were the main fields interested in rock mechanics. Now, however, rock mechanics is becoming increasingly important in many more branches - the most significant globally being the disposal of ...

Enhancement of the Plant‐Accessible Phosphate Fraction in Sewage Sludge Ashes by Na+ or K+ Addition Prior to Combustion

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The addition of Na2CO3 or K2CO3 to sewage sludge prior to combustion leads to the production of ashes containing phosphate in the form of buchwaldite‐like phases (Ca(Na/K)PO4). Compared to conventional sewage sludge mono‐ashes, such Na‐ or K‐ashes show greatly increased P‐solubilities and proved to be potent P‐fertiliser materials in greenhouse ...

Crack and failure behaviors of sandstone subjected to dynamic loads visualized by micro-computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yes
Microscopic dynamic failure behaviors of rocks are significant to rock engineering, which is still insufficiently understood. This study combines split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) and micro-CT (computed tomography) to explore the microscopic failure ...

The Role of Underground Salt Caverns in Renewable Energy Peaking: A Review

open access: yesEnergies
To address the inherent intermittency and instability of renewable energy, the construction of large-scale energy storage facilities is imperative. Salt caverns are internationally recognized as excellent sites for large-scale energy storage.

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Dependence of shape on particle size for a crushed rock railway ballast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Laboratory testing of railway ballast poses practical difficulties because the particle size is often too large for most standard apparatus. There are therefore advantages in developing a scaled material whose behavior is representative of the full size ...
