Study on Dynamic Mechanical Properties and Damage Evolution Model of Siltstone by Guoliang Zhang, Haipeng Jia, Shuaifeng Wu

“…For this purpose, different stress wave wavelengths (0.5 m∼2.0 m) and different strain rates (25 s−1∼120 s−1) were applied to siltstone specimens in the SHPB dynamic impact test. The experimental results show that the dynamic compressive strength of siltstone is linearly positively correlated with the strain rate, and the dynamic increase factor is linearly positively correlated with the natural logarithm of strain rate; the peak strain is linearly positively correlated with the strain rate, and the increase in wavelength causes the peak strain to increase. …”

A Study on the Inheritance and Differentiation of Spatial Forms of Vernacular Architecture in the Yunnan–Tibet Area by Kua Wu, Haowei Wang, Heng Liu, Man Yin, Junhua Xu, Mingli Qiang, Yanwei Su

“…The results show that: (a) vernacular architecture in the Yunnan–Tibet area exhibits characteristics of multi-cluster branched centrality and spatial hierarchical layout; (b) these architectures possess four categories of inheritance factors: the privacy of granary spaces, the centrality of corridor spaces, the passability of breeding areas, and the independence of scripture hall spaces; (c) these architectures possess three categories of differentiation factors: the functional evolution of traditional spaces, the spatial reconstruction of breeding areas, and the “Toilet Revolution” driven by multiple forces. …”
