Selected case studies are reported first with the intent to gain insights into the complexities associated with the interaction of these structures with deep-seated landslides(generally referred to as deep-seated gravity slope deformations, DSGSDs). The main features, which characterize these landslides, are mentioned together with the interaction problems encountered in each case. Given the main objective of this paper, the numerical modeling methods adopted are outlined as means for increase in the understanding of the interaction problems being investigated. With the above in mind, the attention moves to an important and unique case history dealing with the interaction of a large-size twin-tunnel excavated with an earth pressure balance(EPB)tunnel boring machine(TBM) and a deep-seated landslide, which was reactivated due to the stress changes induced by tunnel excavation in landslide shear zone. The geological and geotechnical conditions are described together with the available monitoring data on the landslide movements, based on the advanced and conventional monitoring tools used. Numerical modeling is illustrated as an aid to back-analyze the monitored surface and subsurface deformations and to assist in finding the appropriate engineering solution for putting the tunnel into service and as a follow-up means for future understanding and control of the interaction problems. The simulation is based on a novel time-dependent model representing the landslide behavior.展开更多

S. Bureau of Mines contracts. An innovative displacement measurement system called videogrammetric system was developed and utilized for recording, measuring and analyzing the deformation and failure process of the models. A room and pillar mining and a longwall mining prototypes were studied in the modeling. Study found that weak floor of coal seam plays an important role in pillar stability and therefore the overburden movements.展开更多

First, BiFeO_3 nanoparticles were prepared by ball milling and characterized by SEM. Then, the preparation of BiFeO_3 solution was finished. BiFeO_3 nanoparticles are found to move in solution due to electrical field. The movement velocity of BiFeO_3 nanoparticles, which is about 10 μm·s^-1 , is influenced and controlled by the applied electrical field. The concentration of BiFeO_3 solution and the nanoparticle sizes also have effects on its movement properties. The movement of BiFeO_3 nanoparticles in solution is induced by strong polarization, and BiFeO_3 nanoparticles have net negative electric charges because of the electrostatic force between BiFeO_3 nanoparticles and the negative ions in water resolver.展开更多
