Renewable energy mapping in Northeastern Morocco: A geographic information system‐based comparison of geothermal, solar, and wind potential in the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen regions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract summarizes a geographic information system (GIS)‐based synthesis of renewable energy resources in Northeastern Morocco, focusing on the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen areas. It visually presents the spatial distribution of solar irradiation and wind energy potential derived from available datasets, alongside their relationship ...

Dynamic prediction of coal and gas outburst risk based on quantitative analysis of stress–energy evolution and adaptive correction

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study quantitatively analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution of stress redistribution ahead of the working face by integrating coal seam distribution, tectonic stress anomalies, gas pressure, and mining‐induced disturbances. An R‐value criterion for coal and gas outburst (CGO) risk assessment was established based on energy principles.

Mitigating surcharge‐induced column‐head cracking in double‐deck shield tunnels using hyperelastic bearing joints

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A staged three‐dimensional nonlinear soil–structure interaction (SSI) model is established, in which the initial geostress state, tunnel excavation, lining installation, delayed activation of the internal frame, and subsequent surcharge loading are simulated sequentially.

Closed‐form stress solution and minimum safe burial depth correction for shallow‐buried large‐diameter energy storage chambers

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a closed‐form solution for stress analysis of shallow‐buried large‐diameter compressed air energy storage (CAES) chambers, explicitly incorporating free surface, lateral pressure, and gravity gradient effects. Validated against numerical simulations, the solution accurately captures stress redistribution and reveals upward migration

Developing a universal tunnel span classification from global tunnel databases

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A universal tunnel span classification system is introduced that incorporates tunnel span, cross‐sectional area, typical tunnel types, and intended uses. Representative flatness ratio values are also provided for each span class. The classification is derived from a comprehensive database of 450 tunnel profiles from 47 countries.

Real‐time multiscale characterization of water migration in deep coal under stepwise pressure‐increasing injection: Combined low‐field nuclear magnetic resonance and multifractal approach

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the real‐time multiscale characterization of water migration in deep coal under stepwise pressure‐increasing injection. Under in‐situ hydrostatic pressure, the water invasion front advances progressively along the axial direction as the injection pressure increases stepwise, tracked in real time by nuclear magnetic ...

Intelligent inversion analysis of dilatancy angle of surrounding rock based on the force of negative Poisson's ratio anchor cable

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
An intelligent inversion framework estimates the dilatancy angle of the surrounding rock from negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) anchor cable force histories. Numerical tunnel‐excavation simulations generate force data across a controlled dilatancy‐angle range, which are mapped to the target parameter using a sequential convolutional neural network (CNN ...

Complex Versus Parsimonious Site‐Based Stochastic Ground Motion Models: Which One Is Better?

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stochastic ground motion models (GMMs) provide a probabilistic representation of seismic input and are increasingly important for uncertainty quantification (UQ) in earthquake engineering. This study focuses on site‐based stochastic GMMs, which learn the statistical features of selected datasets of seismic records and generate statistically ...

An Intensity Measure‐Based Methodology for Ground Motion Orientation in Seismic Structural Assessment

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In current dynamic time history assessment protocols, ground motion recordings are mostly oriented along fixed sensor directions. Consequently, the orientation of the principal resultant of rupture energy, which may control the maximum structural demand, remains undefined, precluding consistent correlation with physically detrimental ...
