Experimental study on burning rate and flame geometry in construction tunnel fires under high geothermal conditions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

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

open access: yesDeep 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

Random finite element analysis on ground subsidence caused by tunnel excavation in karst regions with spatial variable soil

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates ground subsidence during tunnel excavation in karst areas, highlighting the combined effects of karst cave proximity, cave size, and soil spatial variability. Findings suggest that shorter cave distances and larger cave sizes increase subsidence variability, and a modified Peck formula is proposed for more accurate subsidence ...

Tri‐axial compressive behavior of high‐water material for deep underground spaces

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The relationship between the mechanical behavior and microstructures of the laterally confined high‐water material associated with water bleeding was established. Abstract Attributed to its superior water‐to‐solid ratio and quick setting time, the high‐water material is widely adopted in underground spaces as a cost‐effective and environmentally ...

Stability analysis of a compressed air energy storage cavern transformed from a horseshoe‐shaped roadway in an abandoned coal mine

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Stability analysis of compressed air energy storage caverns transformed from horseshoe‐shapes roadways in an abandoned coal mine is carried out. Both initial damage areas and two cavern shapes are numerically simulated using a one‐way coupling iteration algorithm of an improved generalization α method.
