The stability of hydrate-bearing near-wellbore reservoirs is one of the key issues in gas hydrate exploitation. In most previous investigations, the damage evolution process of the sediment structure and its effect on near-wellbore reservoir stability ha...

To face the design of a new ship concept, the evaluation of multiple feasible solutions concerning several aspects of naval architecture and marine engineering is necessary. Compressed natural gas technologies are in continuous development; therefore, th...

Soft broken surrounding rock exhibits obvious rheological properties and time-dependent weakening effects under the action of deep high-ground stress, leading to the increasingly prominent problem of sustained large deformation in deep roadways. In this ...

The survivability of a damaged RoPax ship in the case of a flooding accident can be critical, as these ships have a tendency for a rapid capsize. Various simulation tools are presently in use to study the behavior of damaged RoPax and cruise ships. Recen...

As large-span structures, reticulated shells are widely used in large-scale public building and act as emergency shelters in the event of sudden disasters. However, spatial reticulated shells are dynamic-sensitive structures; the effect of the initial st...

The stability analysis of a damaged ship is both important and challenging for an onboard loading computer. To help ship operators make reasonable decisions, a Simplified Newton Iteration Method is proposed to calculate damage stability in real time base...

The paper complements an earlier publication by the authors addressing the probability of survival in the IMO framework for damage stability assessment, the s-factor. The focus here is on the probability of occurrence of a certain damage scenario (breach...

Armor damage due to wave attack is the principal failure mode to be considered when designing conventional mound breakwaters. Armor layers of mound breakwaters are typically designed using formulas in the literature for non-overtopped mound breakwaters i...

The traditional risk control option adopted in naval architecture to meet safety-related objectives is by regulations, targeting damage limitation, nominally instigated in the wake of maritime accidents claiming heavy loss of life. These primarily concer...

The stability and deformation behavior of high rock slopes depends on many factors, including geological structures, lithology, geomorphic processes, stress distribution, and groundwater regime. A comprehensive mapping program is, therefore, required to ...

As a natural modifier of asphalt, rock asphalt has been widely used to improve its thermal stability and aging resistance. However, the thermal cracking resistance of asphalt modified by rock asphalt is unsatisfactory. In order to improve the thermal cra...
