This paper presents a thorough guide to simulating jet grouting using the Moving Particle Semi-Implicit (MPS) method for numerical analysis and Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) for model development. It addresses the shortcomings of previous jet grouting simulation studies, which often lacked clear and comprehensive guidelines, by providing a detailed step-by-step approach. The key aspects of t…
The conservation of the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) is increasingly critical due to declining global populations. This study investigates the influence of hydrometeorological conditions on the nesting season and annual hatchling sex ratios conducted at the Playón de Mismaloya Federal Reserve in Tomatlán, Jalisco, Mexico. The research specifically examines variations in sand te…
Published Sn isotope data along with 150 new analyses of cassiterite and four granite analyses constrain two major tin isotope fractionation steps associated with (1) separation of tin from the magma/orthomagmatic transitional environment and (2) hydrothermal activity. A distinct Sn isotope difference across deposit type, geological host rocks, and time of ore deposit formation demonstrates tha…
Despite ongoing efforts to enhance coal rib stability, the underground coal mining sector continues to face incidents of rib failure, leading to injuries and fatalities. The development and validation of effective rib support systems are crucial for mitigating these risks. Unfortunately, a standardized design methodology that accommodates the diverse geological conditions of U.S. coal mines is …
The emergence of high-resolution land cover data has created the opportunity to assess the accuracy of impervious cover (IC) provided by the National Land Cover Database (NLCD). We assessed the accuracy of the 900 m2 NLCD2011 %IC for 18 metropolitan areas throughout the conterminous United States using reference data from 1 m2 land cover data developed as part of the United States Environme…
Water prediction plays a crucial role in modern-day water resource management, encompassing both hydrological patterns and demand forecasts. To gain insights into its current focus, status, and emerging themes, this study analyzed 876 articles published between 2015 and 2022, retrieved from the Web of Science database. Leveraging CiteSpace visualization software, bibliometric techniques, and li…
The connectivity of sandbodies is a key constraint to the exploration effectiveness of Bohai A Oilfield. Conventional connectivity studies often use methods such as seismic attribute fusion, while the development of contiguous composite sandbodies in this area makes it challenging to characterize connectivity changes with conventional seismic attributes. Aiming at the above problem in the Bohai…
In this investigation, the bearing capacity solution of a strip footing in anisotropic clay under inclined and eccentric load is analyzed using the numerical simulation model. The lower and upper bound finite element limit analysis (FELA) approaches are utilized to establish precise modeling and derive the numerical outcomes of a strip footing's bearing capacity. All analyses use effective auto…
Evolution in geoscientific data provides the mineral industry with new opportunities. A direction of geochemical data generation evolution is towards big data to meet the demands of data-driven usage scenarios that rely on data velocity. This direction is more significant where traditional geochemical data are not ideal, which is the case for evaluating unconventional resources, such as tailing…
Most known mineral deposits were discovered by accident using expensive, time-consuming, and knowledge-based methods such as stream sediment geochemical data, diamond drilling, reconnaissance geochemical and geophysical surveys, and/or remote sensing. Recent years have seen a decrease in the number of newly discovered mineral deposits and a rise in demand for critical raw materials, prompting e…
