Critical expansion points: Mechanical signs of surrounding rock instability

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes the Rock Bearing‐Expansion Model (RockBEM) with critical expansion points (CEPs) to quantify post‐peak damage stages in deep‐buried rock masses via plane strain compression test (PSCT). CEP hysteresis&interval ratios reveal bearing performance dynamics and failure severity, advancing mechanistic insights into deep underground rock ...

A rock brittleness index based on the postpeak energy release rate and damage surface characteristics for brittle hard rock

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines energy evolution in rock rupture via triaxial direct shear tests, exploring the impact of confining pressure and temperature on fracture surface randomness. A novel energy‐based brittleness index is proposed, validated experimentally, and compared with existing methods for reliability and accuracy.

Triaxial vs. Spherical Dark Matter Halo Profiles

open access: yes, 2006
When analysing dark matter halos forming in cosmological N-body simulations it is common practice to obtain the density profile utilizing spherical shells. However, it is also known that the systems under investigation are far from spherical symmetry and

An MCMC Fitting Method for Triaxial Dark Matter Haloes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Measuring the 3D distribution of mass on galaxy cluster scales is a crucial test of the LCDM model, providing constraints on the behaviour of dark matter. Recent work investigating mass distributions of individual galaxy clusters (e.g.

Analytical stress solution framework for lined compressed air energy storage chambers and its application to safe burial depth determination and supporting effectiveness evaluation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
An analytical framework delivers a closed‐form stress solution for lined compressed air energy storage chambers, enabling the determination of the minimum safe burial depth. The solution quantitatively evaluates lining support effectiveness, offering a reliable tool for chamber design and optimization.

Influence of Failure Strain of Different Aluminium Alloys on Dynamic Problems

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2014
In this work an experimental-numerical methodology is devised for analyzing ductile fracture of two aluminum alloys under different values of stress triaxiality (0.2 ≤ η ≤ 1.2) and Lode parameter (−1 ≤ μ ≤ 0).

Projection effects in cluster mass estimates : the case of MS2137

open access: yes, 2005
We revisit the mass properties of the lensing cluster of galaxies MS2137-23 and assess the mutual agreement between cluster mass estimates based on lensing, X-rays and stellar dynamics.
