Stability Evaluation and Parametric Optimization of Coal‐Concrete Composite Bearing Systems Under Mine‐Water‐Induced Deterioration: Experiments and FEINN Analysis

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3697-3725, August 2026.
Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

Assessments of Liquefaction Triggering and Manifestation at Three Case History Sites in Napier Based on 1931 Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, Earthquake

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.

Improvement of shear strength design of a road structure. Part 1. Deformations in the Mohr – Coulomb plasticity condition

Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2015
The article presents the Mohr – Coulomb plasticity condition modified by incorporating a third parameter depending on sample axial deformation value for which sliding planes are formed and developed under triaxial compression.

Polymaterial Lattice Discrete Particle Model for the Optimization of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete: Intragranular Fracture and Compression Behavior

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 12, Page 4764-4779, 25 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) offers clear advantages for sustainable construction, including reduced density and improved thermal insulation. However, its mechanical and fracture behavior is difficult to characterize due to the heterogeneity and brittle crushing of porous lightweight aggregates.

Modeling Biocemented Sands: Hypoplastic Model for MICP‐Based Ground Improvement

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 12, Page 4893-4912, 25 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bio‐cementation offers a sustainable and low‐carbon alternative to conventional ground improvement methods, aligning with the growing demand for green geotechnical solutions. To enable reliable numerical simulation of bio‐cemented soil behavior in engineering applications, advanced constitutive models are required to account for the effects of

Pressurization of Shallow Magma Reservoir Preceding Basaltic Eruptions at an Open‐Vent Volcano

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Open‐vent volcanoes are characterized by the persistent activity of outgassing, lava effusion and mild explosions, which is, however, occasionally interrupted by more violent explosive activity (paroxysm), for example, Stromboli (Italy). In spite of the different (two orders of magnitude) explosive intensities and different petrological magma ...

An Open‐Source Markov Chain Monte Carlo Inversion Software for the Analysis of Experimental Rock Deformation Data

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Despite its importance in modeling the interior dynamics of a planet, our understanding of interior rheology remains incomplete because of several reasons, including insufficient experimental data and inadequate analysis of the available data.

Uncovering hidden bias in neutron diffraction residual strain measurements

Journal of Applied Crystallography, Volume 59, Issue 4, Page 991-1004, August 2026.
This work demonstrates that diffraction‐based residual strain calculations and uncertainty estimates depend on how grain populations are sub‐sampled, with important implications for interpreting residual stresses in heterogeneous materials with fine‐scale microstructure and strain gradients.When calculating residual strain via neutron or X‐ray ...

The behaviour of clay in simple shear and triaxial tests [PDF]

The main objective of this work is to study the applications of critical state soil mechanics to simple shear testing. The problems with the simple shear apparatus and the approach for interpreting simple shear test results are described. Laboratory tests were conducted using the NGI simple shear apparatus, standard shear box arid computer controlled ...

A Novel Framework for Understanding Multiaxial Fatigue of SBR Through Monitored Tension‐Torsion Tests

Strain, Volume 62, Issue 4, August 2026.
A new methodology shows that current multiaxiall fatigue criteria are not sufficient. ABSTRACT In the present work, mappings of two invariants of the true strain tensor, K2$$ {K}_2 $$ that measures the magnitude of the distortion and K3$$ {K}_3 $$ that quantifies the mode of distortion, are used to investigate the multiaxial fatigue of AE2 and AE42 ...
