A new criterion of rock burst proneness based on residual energy release rate index
The natural property of rock material, whether impact occurs, is the key influencing factor of the occurrence of rock burst disaster. To accurately assess rock burst proneness, this study focuses on typical sandstone as the research object.

Characterising fibre compression fracture toughness of composites using bearing tests [PDF]
In this paper we propose the use of a bearing test with a coupled experimental-numerical approach to characterise the critical strain energy release rate, or "fracture toughness", for fibre compression failure in ...

Effects of Three-Axial Material Inhomogeneity on Lengthwise Cracks in Non-Linear Elastic Beams
The present paper investigates lengthwise crack behaviour in three-axial inhomogeneous non-linear elastic cantilever beams, i.e., beams which exhibit inhomogeneous material properties along the width, height and length.

Lengthwise Fracture Study of Transversely Inhomogeneous Rods
A lengthwise crack in a rod that exhibits smooth (continuous) material inhomogeneity in the transverse direction is studied. The rod has a circular cross-section. The lengthwise crack is located arbitrarily along the thickness of the rod.

Fatigue life prediction of z-fibre pinned composite laminate under mode I loading [PDF]
A hybrid method is presented combining linear elastic fracture mechanics with nonlinear damage mechanics that can predict the fatigue crack growth rate in z-fibre pinned composites under mode I loading.

The formation and evolution of (normal) fault affect the formation and preservation of some reservoirs, such as fault-block reservoirs and faulted reservoirs. Strain energy is one of the parameters describing the strength of tectonic activity.

Variations in slow slip moment rate associated with rapid tremor reversals in Cascadia [PDF]
During large slow slip events, tremor sometimes propagates in the reverse along-strike direction for a few hours, at speeds 10 to 40 times faster than the forward propagation.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...
