Abstract: This paper demonstrates the use of a centrifuge modeling technique in studying slope instability. The slope models were prepared from sand, and sand mixed with 15 and 30% fines by weight, compacted at optimum water content. ...

Abstract: Coal is a complex porous medium. When gas exists in the coal body, the fissure structure of coal and the occurrence of gas adsorption make the stress state of gas-bearing coal different from that of ordinary coal. Therefore, ...

Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) technology enables a new way for fabricating components with complex internal surfaces. Selective laser melting (SLM), being one of the most common AM techniques, is able to fabricate complex ...
