Application of the Slope Coefficient of the Equivalent M–C Criterion in Layered Rock Mass Engineering by Qian Liu, Qizhi Hu, Fan Zhang, Zhigang Ding, Wencheng Bao

“…., the vault and waist) increases when the slope coefficient is increased and the deviator stress decreases when the slope coefficient is increased. (2) After the area equivalent method is revised, the displacement and the deviator stress are more significantly affected by the inclination of the rock strata than the uncorrected ones, suggesting that the equivalent area can more effectively highlight the anisotropy characteristics of the layered surrounding rock. (3) After the simulation results of the displacement and the deviator stress at the respective key point are comprehensively modified, the optimal slope coefficient corresponding to each rock layer inclination is obtained, and the area is optimized by ensuring reasonableness to reduce the error between the simulated value and the measured value. (4) The layered surrounding rock at a dip angle of 30° is studied. …”

Problematic Issues of Calculating the Size of Damage from the Use of Land Plots for Other Purposes within the Practice of Law Enforcement Agencies by I. V. Bryhadyr, I. V. Panova

“…The authors have proved the necessity of introducing a separate formula for calculating the amount of damage caused by the use of land plot for other purposes, in case of impossibility to return the land plot to a condition suitable for further use for its intended purpose, or failure to accomplish such a return for other reasons. The results of the research can be used in law-enforcement practice to determine the amount of damage caused by unauthorized occupation of land plots, the use of land plots for other purposes, as well as in law-making activity to improve legal mechanisms to prevent misuse of land plots.…”
