Distribution Pattern of Anchorage Stress and Water Sensitivity Analysis of Red Clay by Lifeng Li, Weili Gong, Huilin Deng, Xiaohu Zhang, Gan Li

“…Increase of the water content will lead to the rapid deterioration of the mechanical properties of red clay, which will lead to the reduction of the anchoring force of the slope anchor cable and lead to the failure of the support. Based on the classical Phillips and uniform anchorage shear stress distribution theory, this paper puts forward a uniform-exponential distribution pattern of anchorage shear stress according to the specific characteristics of red clay by using the characteristics of the peak shear strength and residual shear strength of the rock and soil mass. …”

Schnittstellen zwischen performance und Analyse von Popmusik. Performative Produktionsprozesse in Pink Floyds Album Wish You Were Here und Jordan Rudessʼ Coverversion von Genesisʼ... by Hubertus Dreyer, Pascal Horn

“…On the other hand, cover versions of pop music may be analyzed in the same way that different interpretations of classical music are compared. These two approaches are applied to Pink Floyd’s album Wish You Were Here (1975) and to Jordan Rudess’ cover version (2007) of Genesis’ Dance on a Volcano (1975/76). …”

Controlling injection conditions of a deep coaxial closed well heat exchanger to meet irregular heat demands: a field case study in Belgium (Mol) by Vlasios Leontidis, Edgar Hernandez, Justin Pogacnik, Magnus Wangen, Virginie Harcouët-Menou

“…Abstract Deep geothermal closed-loops have recently gained attention because of their advantages over classical geothermal applications (e.g., less dependence on the geology, no risk of induced seismicity) and technological advantages (e.g., in the drilling process, use of alternative to water fluids). …”
