Correlation between the rock mass properties and maximum horizontal stress: A case study of overcoring stress measurements

Authors: Peng Li, Meifeng Cai, Shengjun Miao, Yuan Li, Yu Wang

Understanding the mechanical properties of the lithologies is crucial to accurately determine the horizontal stress magnitude. To investigate the correlation between the rock mass properties and maximum horizontal stress, the three-dimensional (3D) stress tensors at 89 measuring points determined using an improved overcoring technique in nine mines in China were adopted, a newly defined characteristic parameter CERP was proposed as an indicator for evaluating the structural properties of rock ma

Research progress and future prospect of blasting theory and technology for deep rock masses: A review primarily based on Chinese perspectives

Authors: Chenxi Ding, Renshu Yang, Zongxian Zhang, Zhe Sui

Shallow mineral resources are gradually depleting worldwide, therefore, deep mining is becoming increasingly prevalent within the mining industry. Drilling and blasting are the predominant excavation methods used in deep environments. However, challenges such as inefficient borehole utilization and significant over- or under-excavation are frequently encountered. Scientific investigations on deep rock mass blasting are crucial for the effective development and utilization of deep resources, unde

Formation of non-equilibrium metastable phases in rapidly solidified Ti–Fe eutectic alloy

Authors: Xiaogang Gao, Yibo Zhang, Zhichao Lu, Jinkui Zhao, Zhaohui Dong, Ke Yang, Dongbai Sun, Xue Li, Fanqiang Meng, Dong Ma

Ti–Fe alloys are indispensable for crucial applications in the aerospace, marine, and energy industries. To understand the effect of rapid solidification on phase formation and microstructural evolution in Ti–Fe alloys, melt spinning of a typical Ti70.5Fe29.5 eutectic alloy at different cooling rates was investigated in this study. The experimental results show that the melt-spun ribbons exhibit unique three-layered microstructure consisting of thin amorphous–nanocrystalline (Am–NC) hybrid layer

Advanced PEO/SN/LLZTO artificial solid electrolyte interphase for long-cycling lithium metal batteries

Authors: Ting Liu, Hao Xu, Shuai Liu, Shixia Cai, Weimin Wang, Kaikai Song, Lina Hu, Kunyan Sui

Lithium metal batteries have been widely used in energy storage applications owing to their high theoretical energy density. However, the unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) in the batteries lead to the formation of lithium dendrites and “dead lithium”, thus affecting the safety and cycle life of the battery. To address this issue, an artificial SEI was prepared using a polymer coating strategy. The introduction of succinonitrile (SN) accelerates ion transport by promoting the dissociati

Construction of heterostructured silver nanoparticles/silver nanowires@hydrophilic carbon cloth fibers composites for dual-functional microwave absorption and antibacterial applications

Authors: Konghu Tian, Kaipeng Gao, Yi Gong, Ruiwen Shu, Run Huang, Bin Wang, Xiaoqing Zhao, Junming Yang

Advancing multifunctionality in microwave absorbing materials through strategic component selection and architectural tailoring is an emerging research focus. In this work, novel heterostructured composite-silver nanoparticles and silver nanowires anchored on hydrophilic carbon cloth fibers (AgNPs/AgNWs@HCCF) were synthesized via a polyol process coupled with impregnation. The flexible, three-dimensional HCCF scaffold served as a support matrix for the AgNPs and AgNWs, which are known for their

Characterization of the formation of slag rims of mold powder during hypo-peritectic steel continuous casting based on full-sectional microstructures

Authors: Zhiqiang Peng, Zibing Hou, Shuxian Xu, Ping Tang, Guanghua Wen

A full-sectional microstructure characterization method was developed to investigate the formation of coarse slag rims during the continuous casting of hypo-peritectic steel. The cross-sectional microstructural analysis of typical slag rims for two highly crystalline powders revealed that their formation was primarily driven by the solidification of the liquid slag. Distinct differences were observed in the microstructures of slag rims from the two powders. Powder A (characterized by a higher br

Thermodynamics formation of oxides in laser powder bed fusion processed aluminum-deoxidized maraging steel and their effects on toughness

Authors: Chao Wang, Lilin Wang, Zhennan Wang, Xin Lin, Geng Liu, Jie Su

Maraging steels are ultrahigh-strength, low-carbon steels requiring strict control of impurity elements to ensure optimal strength and toughness. This study aims to elucidate the role of oxygen content in controlling oxide inclusions and cryogenic toughness in laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) fabricated maraging steels. Two types of powders were used: vacuum induction gas atomization (VIGA) powder with 0.034wt% oxygen and plasma rotating electrode process (PREP) powder with 0.016wt% oxygen. The P

Porphyrin-based metal–organic framework/graphene composites for selective yttrium capture: Adsorption properties and mechanistic study

Authors: Haibo Ren, Jiawei Ding, Haozhe Li, Ranran Long, Jue Kou, Shaoxian Song, and Yang Hu

In this study, a porous porphyrin-based metal–organic framework/reduced graphene oxide ((Fe–P)n–MOF/graphene) composite was prepared via hydrothermal reduction with tetracarboxyphenyl porphyrin (TCPP) and iron(III) chloride (FeCl3) as the main raw materials. The composite was designed to serve as a selective adsorbent for yttrium ions (Y3+). The adsorption performance of the composite toward Y3+ was investigated. The results indicated that the maximum adsorption capacity of the composite was 102
