Abstract:

Based on a survey of the literatures on 22 cases of evacuation from underground spaces, we analyze and discuss the effect of hazardous factors on escape. These cases involve road tunnels, railway tunnels, mines, and construction sites. The types of disaster include fire, automobile collision, electrical power failure due to earthquakes, and terror-based occurrence. Our analysis shows that evacuation success or failure depends on (1) urgency of the event and (2) the distance required to reach shelters or exits, regardless of how underground facilities are used. Based on the analysis of these two factors, we concluded that the maximumdistance of safe evacuation is within 400 m. We compared urgency and rescuer access time in disasters involving power failures in underground spaces. In the case of power failures, the risk to human life, and the need for immediate escape are small. In some fires, the contamination of escape routes is far faster than rescuers can arrive, and survey results show the importance of measures and designs for self-escape, especially in underground spaces.

Abstract:

In numerous collected source materials from the 1950s, it is necessary to distinguish texts created in the works of authors persecuted by the communist regime e.g. Catholic writers and those related to popular movement, from the authors deliberately abandoning official circulation e.g. supporters of the concept of total realism, embarrassing poetry and collage of various literary genres. Activities of the opposition in the second half of the 1950s resulted in the first attempts of culture liberalization. At that time literature has influenced film and theater opening up the way to the Prague Spring in the late 1960s.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper examines the impact underground literature (yeraltı edebiyatı) has on influencing the opinions and beliefs of Turkey’s youth regarding issues of contemporary importance. In order to understand the relevance of this genre to Turkish youth culture, we have not only examined the debate surrounding the topic in popular and academic circles, but also asked the readers themselves their opinions about their experience with the genre (in both its imported Western and homegrown Turkish variants) and its relevance to their lives. For our purposes, the effect of such texts on readers is the primary focus, and ours is the first mixed-media study to conduct a methodological, data-based investigation into the composition and opinions of underground literature’s readers. Thus, our study supplements a lack in the existing scholarship by offering concrete qualitative and quantitative data that will better elucidate our knowledge of the relationship between underground literature and Turkish youth attitudes, as well as the potential the genre might hold for the future of Turkey’s youth.

Abstract:

Abstract This essay examines the emergence of the underground as a figure for being in but not of a rotten world. First popularized by newspaper coverage of the Underground Railroad in the 1840s, the underground offered a metaphor for subversive activity that has remained central to our political vocabulary. My forthcoming book, Going Underground: Race, Space, and the Subterranean in the Nineteenth-Century US, excavates the long history of this now-familiar idea, but most of all, it seeks out versions of the underground that got left behind along the way. To do so, it traces images of the subterranean from David Walker’s Appeal (1829) to Pauline Hopkins’s Of One Blood (1902–03), and from anarchist periodicals and exposés of the urban underworld to the initiation rites of secret societies and manuals for sex magic. In this essay, an adaptation of the book’s introduction, I focus on how early visions of the underground were shaped by literal subterranean spaces and associations with racialized Blackness. I argue that nineteenth-century undergrounds can expand our thinking about political agitation outside the familiar framework of resistance and suggest some new—which is to say old—modes of world-making and world-breaking for a time when this world feels increasingly untenable. At times going underground is an effect of subjugation, but at other times it is an act of refusal. Some undergrounds are sites to carve out other worlds … and some are sites to prepare the destruction of this one.

Abstract:

<p>The idiom “twice two is four” along with its variations is seen in the article as a marker of the situation of an “underground man”. In literature of the twentieth century the “underground” in its ethical and philosophical aspects has expanded its meaning, becoming the context of a utopian and antiutopian thought, absorbing the tragic experience of Russian culture after Dostoevsky. Of course, the widespread locution “as sure as twice two is four” does not always point at this variety of meanings, but it can be reached only in combination with the psychological type of the “underground man”. Thus, the image of Stalin in the novel “the First Circle” by Alexander Solzhenitsyn is considered as a variation of the “underground” consciousness. The problems of philosophical, history related to the evolution of this type of consciousness and actualized in this novel, remain important for modern literature. Another version of this philosophical collision is given in Victor Pelevin’s anti-utopian novel “S.N.U.F.F.”. In both of these cases, the situation of the underground person becomes a picture of a psychological and historical catastrophe. The negative development of the analyzed arithmetic formula in Russian literature of the 20th century encourages to look for another pole of tradition outside the “main” cultural domains. One of the variants of a moral escape from the trap of the “underground consciousness” can be found in the poetry of Alexander Bashlachev. The mythopoetical plot of the song “Verka, Nadka, Lyubka” is an exceptional variant of the development of the “underground man” topic. A starting point of the plot is just the formula “twice two is four”. The genre shift from lyricism to allegorical epic gives the poet an opportunity to reconstruct the Easter ideal of Russian culture, even if in a tragic and provocative form, close to the tradition of Russian foolishness for Christ.</p>

Full text

Abstract:

The creative non-fiction genre, in particular memoir and travel writing, is in a state of constant evolution. Furthermore, as we progress further into postmodern times, writing (both fiction and non-fiction, as well as poetry and drama) becomes more and more confessional and fragmented. These two facts make it difficult to classify the following memoir. It is both travel narrative and memoir on the body, but perhaps none of the traditional writers in either of these camps would claim my piece. Nevertheless, I call it a body memoir, and under essay it should be filed. In three sections (plus an introduction and afterward), "The Underground House: A Body Memoir" follows the preparation for and attempt of a long trip into the Middle East and Africa. The preparation involves the excavation of breast tumors. Post trip, the piece turns to the beginnings of the memoir's persona, in a rural county south of Louisville, Kentucky. The trip itself is played out in an Arabian airport and the capitol of Egypt. The piece draws no conclusions as to the forming of identity (including the neurotic, gender, or philosophical identities of a young woman in early twenty-first century United States of America), though these becomings are certainly taken as the primary subject of the piece. Conclusions are far less important than beginnings, which occur again and again as the piece continues to start afresh - in location, in water, and in reflection.

Full text

Abstract:

Initially the terms 'underground' and 'alternative' are defined British underground periodicals and comics displayed a distinct influence from American underground publications, both in terms of their political ideas and their visual styles. After 1973 a less politically motivated form of alternative comic developed. The comparative financial failure of the majority of these comics is discussed. It can be said that these comics reflect their ideas and meanings through their drawing styles as well as their obvious political and social content. A wide range of comics is then examined in terms of their construction and underlying narrative structure, using a series of empirical tests devised for this purpose. The aim of these tests is to see if underground or alternative comics can be distinguished from mainstream comics by their form and structure rather than just their content. The influence of alternative comics can be felt both in the growing sophistication of mainstream British comics and in the reuse of comic imagery in graphic design and advertising.

Full text

Abstract:

Murakami Haruki's primary readership consists of Japan's four million born between 1978 and 1990—an Ice Age of hiring freezes and layoffs. Murakami's cynical antiheroes modeled a blasé and passive cool. Japanese youth assimilated his tenor and tone. A moral struggle was missing. Following Tokyo's 1995 cult-instigated gas attacks, the repatriating author delved into his 1997-98 reportage, Underground. Despairing apocalyptic outlooks among the economically abandoned respondents rocked Murakami's insularity. The shock engendered his unprecedented compassion.

This thesis arises from phenomena revealed by current events' intersection with moral philosophy and disposition theory. This thesis claims that Murakami's compassion for Japan's stymied youth triggered his transformation from creating detrimental art to work of engaged responsibility, and that his moral turn manifests first as the 2002 didactic novel, Kafka on the Shore. Murakami's ensuing integration of moral values in his postmodernist narratives has led to the short-list for the Nobel Prize.

Full text

Abstract:

This study explores intersections between performance, race and masculinity within a variety of expressive cultural contexts during and after the African American Civil Rights Movement. I maintain that the work of James Baldwin is best situated to help us navigate this cross section, as his fiction and cultural criticism focus heavily on the stage in all its incarnations as a space for negotiating the possibilities and limits of expressive culture in combating harmful racial narratives imposed upon black men in America. My thesis begins with a close reading of the performers populating his story collection Going to Meet the Man (1965) before broadening my scope in the following chapters to include analyses of the diametric masculinities in the world of professional boxing and the black roots of the American punk movement. Engaging with theorists like Judith Butler, bell hooks and Paul Gilroy, Underground Men attempts to put these seemingly disparate corners of American life into a dynamic conversation that broadens our understanding through a novel application of critical race, gender and performance theories. Baldwin and his orbiting criticism remain the hub of my investigation throughout, and I use his template of black genius performance outlined in works like Tell Me How Long the Train’s Been Gone (1967) and Just Above My Head (1977) to aid our understanding of how performance prescribes and scrambles dominant narratives about black men after the sexual revolution.

Abstract:

AbstractDigital literature on the Russian-language Internet includes a broad variety of phenomena, from online libraries to writers’ blogs, from hypertext to Internet memes. The chapter begins by clarifying the terms “digital literature” and “Runet,” drawing on a functional understanding of literature in the tradition of Russian Formalism. It embeds Runet literary studies into global contexts and gives an overview of essential phenomena (hypertext, fan fiction, blogging) and narratives. It analyzes local discourses, which, in turn, attempt to make sense of global communication technologies, for example, by conceptualizing digital self-publishing as samizdat, that is, the historical phenomenon of clandestine underground publication in the post-Stalin Soviet Union. The chapter concludes with an overview of research approaches and methods, both qualitative and quantitative, and of the challenges that future analysis will face.

Abstract:

A CAES plant consists of three (3) major systems; the turbomachinery train, the underground air storage chamber and the balance of plant. The turbomachinery train and the underground air storage chamber interrelationship needs to be optimized with respect to performance and cost while the balance of plant supports this relationship and is dependent upon the site conditions. The qualitative relationship between the air storage chamber and the operation of the turbomachinery train have been reported in the literature. This paper takes a salt dome geology and examines the factors affecting optimization of a 100 MWe CAES plant design.

Full text

Abstract:

A number of natural and engineering systems can be characterized by some sort of porous structure through which a working fluid permeates. Boundary layers over tropical forests and spreading of chemical contaminants through underground water reservoirs are examples of important environmental flows that can benefit form appropriate mathematical treatment. For hybrid media, involving both a porous structure and a clear flow region, difficulties arise due to the proper mathematical treatment given at the interface. The literature proposes a jump condition in which stresses at both sides of the interface are not of the same value. The objective of this paper is to present a numerical implementation for solving such hybrid medium, considering here a channel partially filled with a porous layer through which fluid flows in laminar regime. One unique set of transport equations is applied to both regions. Numerical results are compared with available analytical solutions in the literature for two cases, namely, with and without the non-linear Forchheimer term. Results are presented for the mean velocity across both the porous structure and the clear region. The influence of medium properties, such as porosity and permeability, is discussed.

The National Bureau of Standards (NBS) had undertaken a comprehensive study of underground soil corrosion of iron pipes and plates. The maximum pit depth data for different types of wrought iron and carbon steel pipes have been widely analyzed and utilized in the corrosion literature. There is another important but relatively obscure data set about the testing of pipes with bituminous coating that NBS carried out in collaboration with the American Petroleum Institute (API). This program tested dozens of coatings on operating line pipes as well as short sections of pipes at 15 soil sites over a 10 year period (1930–1940). This paper presents an overview of this data and presents statistical analysis of protection offered by coatings.

Full text

Abstract:

This study demonstrates the selection process for the Horonobe URL based on surveys of existing information and geophysical surveys on a regional scale. In addition, preliminary requirements on the geological environment, safety (during construction of the underground facility) and social and environmental constraints were taken into consideration. The technical know-how utilised through the experiences for the site selection is described here. The proposed Horonobe URL site required the existence of argillaceous sedimentary formations and associated groundwater. Further fundamental requirements were appropriate rock mechanical properties and low gas content in the host rock to meet safe underground construction and operation regulations. This led to a stepwise narrowing down from several potential URL areas located completely within the Horonobe District to one candidate URL area and, finally, to a specific URL site. In the URL investigation area (ca. 3 km × 3 km) the main surface-based investigations were conducted as the first step to choosing the actual URL site. This was selected based on establishing fundamental factors related to the geological environment, safety and societal issues. This paper provides an outline of the process utilised in selecting the URL site by taking into consideration technical and social requirements. Thus stepwise approach and experience in selecting the URL site will be applicable when NUMO needs to select a site through literature surveys, and preliminary and detailed investigations in the future.

Full text

Abstract:

Near neutral pH Stress Corrosion Cracking (NNpHSCC) associated with external corrosion of pipelines is an issue facing industry today. Determining areas of NNpHSCC susceptibility is crucial to developing Integrity Management Programs and inspection dig schedules. This research involved collecting pertinent field data (inspection dig reports, failure reports, loading histories) and developing a predictive model to help identify areas and lines most susceptible to NNpHSCC. The predictive model focused on the loading history (in this case, SCADA data) patterns to classify different groups of loading conditions. Hydrogen has been identified and established in previous literature to be a major contributor to NNpHSCC. Different Hydrogen Enhancement Factors (HEF) were applied based on how the mechanisms of hydrogen embrittlement react to the respective loading conditions. The predictive model illustrated a dormancy behaviour, similar to the one seen in field conditions and a mechanically activated growth dependent on both hydrogen and previous loading scenarios. A correlation was shown between a limited field sampling and the predicted values. Further improvements and calibrations can be made with the gathering of more field data and continued experimental validation. Once this validation has been performed, this model has the possibility to illustrate what loading conditions increase a segments susceptibility to NNpHSCC.

Abstract:

Abstract The measurement of soil temperature profiles for different locations or climates is essential for calculating the thermal performance of applications connected with the soil, e.g., underground heat storage systems. Estimating soil temperature profiles is identified as crucial knowledge for plant and crop growth as well as for germination in all agricultural tasks. The ground temperature depends on weather conditions (ambient temperature, solar irradiation, wind velocity, sky radiation, etc.) that contribute to the resulting temperature distribution within the soil close to the surface. In literature, several approaches have been discussed to predict soil temperature in different climates and locations, such as data-driven models, wavelet transform artificial neural networks, statistical models, etc. However, these models require extensive data sets from literature and high computational efforts. In the present study, a one-dimensional analytical model will be presented, which is based on the Green’s Function (GF) method. The model can estimate the daily and annual variation of the soil temperature distribution at different depths from real-time weather data sets. The model was experimentally validated with an accuracy of more than 96%. The significant advantage of the presented analytical method is the low computational cost, which is lower than that of numerical models by approximately two orders of magnitude.

Abstract:

It is important for site characterization projects to manage the decision-making process with transparency and traceability and to transfer the technical know-how developed and accumulated during the research and development to the implementing phase as well as to future generations. The modeling of a geological environment supports efforts to clarify the degree of understanding regarding that geological environment, including uncertainty. Evaluation of the impact of uncertainties in a geological environment model is important to identify and prioritize key issues for further investigations. Therefore, a plan for site characterization should be made based on the results of the modeling. The aim of this study is to support the planning of initial surface-based site characterization based on the technical know-how accumulated from the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory Project and the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project. These projects are broad scientific studies of the deep geological environment that are a basis for research and development for the geological disposal of high-level radioactive wastes. In this study, the work-flow followed in developing the geological model, one of the geological environment models, and the related technical know-how acquired from literature data have been summarized.

Abstract:

Abstract Building concentric tubes is one of biggest practical challenges in the construction of freeze-pipes of artificial ground freezing (AGF) applications for deep underground mines. In this study, the influence of tubes eccentricity on phase-front expansion (i.e., expansion of the frozen body) and energy consumption of AGF systems is analyzed. A 1+1D semi-conjugate model that solves two-phase transient energy conservation equation is derived. The model is firstly validated against experimental data and then verified with a fully-conjugate model from the literature. After that, the model is extended to a field scale of typical deep underground mines to study freeze-pipe eccentricity. The results show that an eccentric freeze pipe can reduce the phase-front expansion by around 25%, as compared with a concentric one. Also, the geometrical profile of the phase-front is significantly influenced by the freeze-pipe eccentricity. Furthermore, in the passive zone, where AGF coolants are isolated from the ground to reduce energy consumption, freeze pipe eccentricity can increase the coolant heat gain by 10%. This percentage can increase up to 200% if radiation heat transfer is minimized.
