Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8995: Numerical Modelling of One-Dimensional Wave Propagation in Deposits: Influence of the Effective Shear Strain Definition on the Equivalent Linear Method Solution
2+ day, 15+ hour ago (488+ words) Seismic site response analysis plays a fundamental role in predicting earthquake ground motions at the ground surface by accounting for soil effects on wave propagation. Although advanced nonlinear methods can accurately simulate complex soil behaviour, their use in routine engineering…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8893: Scaling of Gas–Melt Decoupling in Silicic Eruptions: Magma Ascent, Connected Permeability, and Atmospheric Confinement
5+ day, 14+ hour ago (461+ words) Gas escape relative to magma ascent is a primary control on degassing, yet its governing parameters are difficult to compare across eruptions and planetary environments. This study develops a reduced-order dimensionless framework for diagnosing local gas–melt separation in connected,…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8874: Research on Optimization of Material Transportation Scheduling for Water Conservancy Engineering Considering Emergency Response to Vehicle Malfunctions
5+ day, 19+ hour ago (453+ words) In-transit vehicle malfunctions during material transportation in water conservancy construction can cause delivery delays, disrupt subsequent tasks, and lead to duplicate material requisitions. To address these issues, this study develops a material transportation scheduling optimization model that explicitly incorporates vehicle-malfunction…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8842: Numerical Imaging Characterization of Three-Dimensional Velocity Fields for Creep Damage Evolution in Surrounding Rock of Deep Roadways
1+ week, 19+ hour ago (450+ words) To characterize the three-dimensional evolution of creep damage in deep roadway surrounding rock, this study establishes a COMSOL-based (Multiphysics 6.3) integrated analysis framework coupling creep damage, seismic velocity response and three-dimensional imaging. The framework adopts the Norton–Bailey creep constitutive model,…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8709: Study on Acoustic Emission Response and Failure Characteristics of Rock–Proppant–Rock Composite Constructions Under Uniaxial Compression
1+ week, 4+ day ago (402+ words) To reveal the bearing and instability mechanisms after filling proppants in the blasting pressure-relief fracture, four types of proppant-containing sandstone composite construction with interface inclinations of 0°, 4°, 8°, and 12° were prepared. A uniaxial compression test was conducted by combining Acoustic Emission (AE)…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8670: A Physically Decoupled Deformation Monitoring Framework Incorporating Beta-Distributed Thermal Lag Modeling for Hydraulic Structures
1+ week, 5+ day ago (417+ words) Hydraulic structures in navigation–hydropower hubs exhibit complex deformation governed by coupled hydraulic, thermal, and long-term effects, making reliable deformation monitoring challenging. Conventional statistical models are prone to multicollinearity-induced overfitting and elevated false alarm rates, while existing temperature components inadequately…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8652: Basin-Wide Monitoring and PIM Parameter Inversion of Mining Subsidence Using UAV-LiDAR
1+ week, 5+ day ago (473+ words) Accurate, comprehensive, and spatially continuous monitoring of mining-induced surface subsidence is essential for geohazard prevention, ecological restoration, and safe mining. Conventional approaches, however, are limited by the sparse spatial distribution of GNSS observations, the difficulty of InSAR in resolving large…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8611: Nonlinear Bistable Mass Damper–Inerter System for Seismic Displacement Mitigation
2+ week, 19+ hour ago (544+ words) This paper investigates the seismic performance of a nonlinear passive control device, namely a Bi-Stable Mass Damper–Inerter (BSMDI), designed to mitigate structural displacements. The system combines a mass damper connected to the primary structure through a bistable (snap-through) nonlinear…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8586: Analysis of Physico-Mechanical Deterioration and Abrasivity Evolution of Granite Subjected to Rapid Heating–Cooling Shock
2+ week, 1+ day ago (736+ words) To address the issues of low mechanical rock-breaking efficiency and severe tool wear in hard rock, this study investigates the mechanical deterioration and abrasivity response of granite subjected to rapid flame-jet heating followed by liquid nitrogen cooling, with rock pre-treatment…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8507: Mechanical Degradation and Acoustic Emission Characteristics of Sandstone Containing Intersecting Fissures Under Uniaxial Compression
2+ week, 3+ day ago (425+ words) Intersecting fissures strongly affect stress transfer and crack coalescence in rock, but their coupled effects on mechanical degradation and acoustic emission signatures remain incompletely understood. We conducted uniaxial compression tests with synchronous acoustic emission monitoring on prismatic sandstone specimens containing…...
