Remote-sensing of tectonic-induced stress across faults using high energy muon beams

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We illustrate a theoretical study of a technique using high-energy muon beams (TeV class) propagating through thick (kilometer-long) crystalline rock layers subject to tectonic-induced stress, potentially capable of actively monitoring the temporal ...

Multiple injection techniques to stimulate complex fracture networks in coal reservoirs: A case study on gas disaster reduction of subsurface coal mine in southwest China

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
An experimental device for physical simulation of hydraulic fracturing, comprising: a load‐bearing mechanism with multiple interconnected plates that collectively form an sample chamber; a load‐generating mechanisms, with multiple load‐generating mechanisms arranged within the experimental chamber.

Valuation method for sub-indicators of rock burst risk based on mining depth and tectonic stress

open access: yesMeitan kexue jishu
The mechanical properties of deep rocks differ from those of the shallow layers due to the complex environment. Rock burst disasters are often induced under the disturbance of coal mining.

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Numerical and experimental study on P‐wave propagation across a rock joint with different orientations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Joint orientation significantly affects P‐wave velocity, with the highest velocity at zero‐degree angles, decreasing to 30° as the angle increases. The velocity increases slightly from 30 to 45 degrees but sharply decreases from 45 to 90 degrees. Abstract Determination of the required parameters in different science contexts using the ultrasonic wave ...

The impact of forced closure on proppant distribution of hydraulic fracturing in shale formations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Research findings demonstrate that implementing forced closure within shale formations can remarkably mitigate proppant settlement, concurrently increasing the effective propped surface area from 29.74% to 38.68%. Abstract Forced closure is widely used in conventional oil and gas reservoirs to promote uniform proppant placement.

Instability mechanism and failure characteristics of underground cavern in block system under the action of seismic waves

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roof‐positioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.

Determining the buried depth of mountain-adjacent tunnels in hard rock under complex geostress conditions

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
Under complex geological and geostress conditions, the design of mountain-adjacent tunnels in hard rock areas faces numerous challenges, particularly in determining the tunnel’s buried depth.
