Abstract:
To develop a kind of ideal sealing material, uniform experiments were conducted in a simulation test device after the determination of material composition and approximate ratio range. The experimental data was fitted by stepwise regression analysis and optimal mixture ratio was obtained. The reliability is perfect when the ratio of foaming agent FP, foam stabilizer WP, solid filler RX and solid filler GX is 1.5:2:3:3. Field application tests show that sealing material in the above ratio has advantages of less time waste, higher reliability and better adaptability. It has a wide application pr

The priority is the use of venturi aeration and slow sand filtration in an integrated manner as a combined treatment for borehole water, which has not been widely explored in previous studies. This method offers a practical, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solution to

AbstractMeasurements of the electrical conductivity of subglacial water provide a useful complement to measurements of pressure and turbidity. In the summer season, fluctuations of conductivity can be attributed to changes in water transport, water provenance and subglacial residence time. These explanations are unlikely to apply during the winter season because surface melt sources are not active and the subglacial water system is predominantly unconnected. Thus, fluctuations in water conductivity during the winter months seem paradoxical. To introduce a quantitative basis for comprehending s

Accurately measuring stress waves generated during blasting is crucial for understanding rock failure mechanics.

Numerical simulations and experimental tests were conducted to validate this method. A conversion coefficient of 0.598 was derived to translate borehole measurement results into equivalent values fo

The exact problem of the interaction of an arbitrary plane wave in a homogeneous elastic medium with a fluid‐filled circularly cylindrical borehole is formulated to analyze three‐axis, full‐waveform borehole seismic data. The plane elastic wave (which may be incident upon the borehole from any direction) is partially scattered around the hole and an acoustic field is induced in the borehole fluid. Since seismic wavelengths tend to be much larger than diameters of boreholes, the exact solution may be expanded in powers of Ω (a small number), the incident wavenumber times the borehole radius. In
