Mechanical Mechanism and Propagation Law of Fissure-Tip Cracks of Large-Size Rock Specimens with Two Precut Fissures by Liming Yin, Ming Li, Wenbin Sun, Juntao Chen, Bin Liu, Ziqi Wang

“…In view of acoustic emission (AE), we calculated and obtained the spatial positions of stress peaks in each direction at the fissure tips; through comparison and analysis, the angle corresponding to the negative angle peak of the maximum circumferential tensile stress and the maximum radial tensile stress is basically the same as the angle of the main crack propagation direction generated from the preexisting fissure; it can be inferred that the tensile stress is the main stress inducing crack initiation and specimen failure, which is consistent with the physical characteristics of rock (resistant to compression but not tension). …”

HORROR FILMS IN UNCONSCIOUS ANTHROPOLOGICAL STRATEGIES OF BIOPOWER by S. A. Malenko, A. G. Nekita

“…And the emergence of the horror film genre in American and world cinema means abandoning the model of classical political power based on the sacralisation and rationalization of personal authority and physical coercion. The scientific reflection on the films of this genre allows us to understand the biotic mechanisms of manipulation of social space and the formation of the state of biopower as a new qualitative state of social control. …”

Recovery Method and Parameter Optimization of a Pilot Test for Conformance Control Flooding and Thermal Recovery in the Offshore Heavy Oilfield by Yanxia Zhou, Xiangguo Lu, Bao Cao, Yigang Liu, Yunbao Zhang, Xun Zhong

“…However, the selection of EOR method and related parameters may directly impact the final results and can be noticeably different for different reservoirs; therefore, to optimize the oil production rate and final oil recovery, systematical optimization of every detail based on the condition of a specific reservoir is of key importance. In this paper, physical simulations were first conducted to select the best recovery methods for the target area based on the static geophysical model under the guidance of reservoir engineering theory. …”
