A Parallelized 3D Geomechanical Solver for Fluid‐Induced Fault Slip in Poroelastic Media

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a fully implicit formulation of coupled fluid flow and geomechanics for fluid injection/withdrawal in fractured reservoirs in the context of CO2$\textrm {CO}_2$ storage. Utilizing a Galerkin finite‐element approach, both flow and poroelasticity equations are discretized on a shared three‐dimensional mesh.

Large Deformation Pile‐soil Interaction Under Lateral Vehicle Impact Using Hybrid SPH+FEM and EFG+FEM Models

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents large deformation computational methods to simulate lateral vehicular impacts on steel piles in granular soil. Soil‐mounted longitudinal barrier systems rely on energy dissipation in both the piles and the surrounding soil to safely redirect errant vehicles, so dynamic pile‐soil interaction is important for design ...

Crustal fault reactivation facilitating lithospheric folding/buckling in the central Indian Ocean

, 1996
High-quality, normal-incidence seismic reflection data confirm that tectonic deformation in the central Indian Ocean occurs at two spatial scales: whole lithosphere folding with wavelengths varying between 100 and 300 km, and compressional reactivation ...

Soil Nail Design Optimization Through Adaptive Slope Stability Analysis Using Improved Limit Equilibrium Method

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Design optimization for automatically generating optimal design results is a promising technique for enhancing the efficiency of design processes and outcomes. However, its development for soil nail reinforced slopes is limited since the traditional slope stability analysis using the limit equilibrium method (LEM) becomes relatively time ...

Dependence of Coseismic Landslide Distribution Patterns on Fault Movement

Applied Sciences
Faults are the primary drivers of earthquakes and exert a strong control on rupture mechanisms, earthquake magnitude, and the spatial distribution of coseismic landslides (CLs).

Role of tectonic stress in seepage evolution along the gas hydrate‐charged Vestnesa Ridge, Fram Strait [PDF]

, 2015
Methane expulsion from the world ocean floor is a broadly observed phenomenon known to be episodic. Yet the processes that modulate seepage remain elusive.

Recyclability of Polystyrene Bead Foams: Degradation Behavior over 10 Extrusion Cycles

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the multi‐cycle recycling of expanded polystyrene bead foam blended with virgin material. Material degradation is monitored by MFI, GPC, and mechanical testing. The results demonstrate that long‐term recyclability is feasible without progressive property loss, and that secondary high‐shear steps such as extrusion and pelletizing

Effect of Postweld Heat Treatment on Laser‐Welded Duplex Stainless Steel: Crystallographic Patterns and Fatigue Behavior

steel research international, EarlyView.
Laser welding of duplex stainless steel disrupts phase balance, promotes nitride precipitation, and reduces fatigue resistance. Postweld heat treatment restores austenite and dissolves nitrides, but the resulting crystallography and phase morphology still impair fatigue performance.
