Taking Fuel From the Fire: Regulating the Introduction of Rape Myth Infused and Irrelevant Evidence About Complainants in Rape Trials

Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article considers how victim‐blaming and stereotypical attitudes about appropriate victim behaviour can impact upon the operation of rape trials, particularly by prejudicing a complainant's testimony where s/he can be portrayed as having departed from the stereotypical norm of a ‘real victim’.

Bridging Theory and Prediction: A Hybrid SEM and Machine Learning Approach to Optimize Lean Construction for Megaproject Sustainability in China

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Construction megaprojects, large‐scale, complex, and capital‐intensive, are particularly prone to inefficiencies, cost overruns, delays, and environmental degradation due to fragmented workflows, stakeholder misalignment, and resource intensity.

Deep transfer learning for seismic characterization of strike-slip faults in karstified carbonates from the northern Tarim basin

Scientific Reports
The largest pre-Mesozoic ultra-deep (> 6000 m) strike-slip fault-controlled oilfield has been discovered in the northern Tarim Basin of northwestern China, and a deeper interpretation of strike-slip faults is crucial for optimizing well trajectory and ...

Beyond goniometry: 3D digital twinning of droplets from a single image

Droplet, EarlyView.
We present a method to produce physics‐informed three‐dimensional digital twins of droplets from a single image for wettability analyses. We validate the method with goniometry and demonstrate its capabilities with advancing‐receding contact angle measurements, irregularly shaped droplets, and multi‐droplet systems, indicating strong potential for in ...

Analogue modelling of conjugate strike-slip faults

Frontiers in Earth Science
IntroductionScaled analogue modelling had become a powerful tool used by structural geologists to study the geometries and evolution of faults.MethodsWe had successfully simulated the geometry and progressive evolution of conjugate strike-slip faults in three sets of symmetric models with varying sandpack thicknesses and two sets of asymmetric models ...

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

An optimizing microseismic method for rock burst early warning based on mining production process

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A classification early warning method of rock burst based on hourly microseismic data is proposed, which can be combined with the on‐site production process to provide more timely warning. Abstract Microseismic (MS) events have been reported in nearly every coal mining country, which could well lead to rock burst in underground coal mines.

Tiechanshan-Tunghsiao anticline earthquake analysis: Implications for northwestern Taiwan potential carbon dioxide storage site seismic hazard

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
We analyze the seismicity and earthquake focal mechanisms beneath the Tiechanshan-Tunghsiao (TCS-TH) anticline over the last two decades for seismic hazard evaluation of a potential carbon dioxide storage site in northwestern Taiwan.
