Research on the Evolution Network Model of the Landslide Disaster Chain: A Case Study of the Baige Landslide

In the context of Western China’s unique geography, recurrent landslide disasters pose substantial threats to both resident safety and economic stability. The escalating frequency of these incidents emphasizes the critical need for innovative disaster research, particularly focused on the concept of a disaster chain. This research aims to enhance disaster preparedness and management strategies with the ultimate goal of minimizing losses. On the basis of predecessors, this study changes the previous analysis forms of single or partial disaster events, innovatively collects all secondary disaster events derived from the landslide disaster chain, and builds an evolutionary network model. In concrete terms, our study concentrates on the Baige landslide within the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, pinpointing sub-hazard events as crucial disaster nodes within the landslide. By establishing directed connections, we have developed a comprehensive landslide disaster chain evolution network model firmly grounded in the principles of disaster chain dynamics and complex network theory. This model encompasses 31 distinct disaster nodes and 77 connecting edges. To assess the inherent risks in the landslide catastrophe chain, we conducted a thorough analysis considering node access degree and clustering coefficients. Critical nodes driving economic losses, such as floods, debris flows, secondary landslides, and downstream water damage, were identified. Additionally, we isolated vulnerable connections within the evolving network, evaluating the susceptibility of each edge. Our research underscores the significance of proactive measures, including pre-disaster monitoring, early warning systems, and timely post-disaster information dissemination. Implementing these actions can play a pivotal role in mitigating the impact of landslide disasters, preserving lives and sustaining regional prosperity.

Preparation and Performance of Bitumen Modified by Melt-Blown Fabric of Waste Mask Based on Grey Relational and Radar Chart Analysis.

To effectively utilize waste mask materials in road engineering and minimize resource waste, the melt-blown fabric (MBF) of waste masks was utilized to modify the virgin bitumen. The preparation process of MBF-modified bitumen was investigated, and the physical and rheological properties of bitumen were measured. Subsequently, the blending mechanism during preparation and the dispersion morphology of the modifier were explored. Finally, the pavement performance of the mixture was investigated, and a radar chart analysis was performed to quantitatively assess the effects of MBF modification. Results suggested that the recommended preparation process of shear time, shear rate, and shear temperature was 170 °C, 4000 r/min, and 15 min, respectively. MBF enhanced the high-temperature stability of the binder and weakened the temperature susceptibility. The modification was primarily a physical process. No network structure and agglomeration formed in the bitumen after modification. The addition of MBF significantly improved the resistance of the asphalt mixture to a high-temperature deformation and water damage but harmed its low-temperature crack resistance. The comprehensive assessment results of 0% (f1), 1% (f2), 3% (f3), and 5% (f4) MBF to improve the properties of the mixture were in the following order: f3>f4>f2>f1, where the impact of 3% MBF was the most significant, followed by 5% and 1% MBF.

Association of exposure to indoor molds and dampness with allergic diseases at water-damaged dwellings in Korea

This study aims to characterize levels of molds, bacteria, and environmental pollutants, identify the associations between indoor mold and dampness exposures and childhood allergic diseases, including asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, using three different exposure assessment tools. A total of 50 children with their parents who registered in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do in Korea participated in this study. We collated the information on demographic and housing characteristics, environmental conditions, and lifestyle factors using the Korean version of the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood questionnaire. We also collected environmental monitoring samples of airborne molds and bacteria, total volatile organic compounds, formaldehyde, and particulate matter less than 10 µm. We evaluated and determined water damage, hidden dampness, and mold growth in dwellings using an infrared (IR) thermal camera and field inspection. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to evaluate the associations between prevalent allergic diseases and exposure to indoor mold and dampness. Indoor mold and bacterial levels were related to the presence of water damage in dwellings, and the mean levels of indoor molds (93.4 ± 73.5 CFU/m3) and bacteria (221.5 ± 124.2 CFU/m3) in water-damaged homes were significantly higher than those for molds (82.0 ± 58.7 CFU/m3) and for bacteria (152.7 ± 82.1 CFU/m3) in non-damaged dwellings (p < 0.05). The crude odds ratios (ORs) of atopic dermatitis were associated with < 6th floor (OR = 3.80), and higher indoor mold (OR = 6.42) and bacterial levels (OR = 6.00). The crude ORs of allergic diseases, defined as a group of cases who ever suffered from two out of three allergic diseases, e.g., asthma and allergic rhinitis, and allergic rhinitis were also increased by 3.8 and 9.3 times as large, respectively, with water damage (+) determined by IR camera (p < 0.05). The adjusted OR of allergic rhinitis was significantly elevated by 10.4 times in the water-damaged dwellings after adjusting age, sex, and secondhand smoke. Therefore, a longitudinal study is needed to characterize dominant mold species using DNA/RNA-based sequencing techniques and identify a causal relationship between mold exposure and allergic diseases in the future.

Study on the design and laboratory investigation of permeable semi-rigid base material with large air voids

PurposeTo explore the economical and reasonable semi-rigid permeable base layer ratio, solve the problems caused by rainwater washing over the pavement base layer on the slope, improve its drainage function, improve the water stability and service life of the roadbed pavement and promote the application of semi-rigid permeable base layer materials in the construction of asphalt pavement in cold regions.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, three semi-rigid base course materials were designed, the mechanical strength and drainage properties were tested and the effect and correlation of air voids on their performance indexes were analyzed.FindingsIt was found that increasing the cement content increased the strength but reduced the air voids and water permeability coefficient. The permeability performance of the sandless material was superior to the dense; the performance of the two sandless materials was basically the same when the cement content was 7%. Overall, the skeleton void (sand-containing) type gradation between the sandless and dense types is more suitable as permeable semi-rigid base material; its gradation is relatively continuous, with cement content? 4.5%, strength? 1.5 MPa, water permeability coefficient? 0.8 cm/s and voids of 18–20%.Originality/valueThe study of permeable semi-rigid base material with large air voids could help to solve the problems of water damage and freeze-thaw damage of the base layer of asphalt pavements in cold regions and ensure the comfort and durability of asphalt pavements while having good economic and social benefits.

Evaluation for water stability of bitumen mixture with multi-scale method

The interaction forces were investigated between matrix bitumen and four kinds of aggregates, including basalt, granite, limestone A, and limestone B in various pH solutions. The aim was to accurately evaluate the water damage resistance of bitumen mixtures at macroscopic and microscopic levels with a conjunctive method of boiling water tests, atomic force microscopy (AFM) colloidal probe technique, zeta potential measurements, and molecular dynamics simulation. Macroscopic evaluation was conducted through indoor water-boiled flaking rate tests to analyze the flaking rate and adhesion class of bitumen and aggregate. The microscopic forces were measured by AFM probe technique between bitumen and aggregate, zeta potential measurements were carried out and the extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory was employed to interpret the bitumen–aggregate interaction behaviors. Molecular dynamics simulations were considered to explain the interface binding tendency between bitumen and aggregate. The AFM force measurements showed that the long-range repulsion forces changed to attractive forces and high adhesive forces with the pH change from 4 to 6. However, the strong long-range repulsive forces were decreased, compounded with a relative low adhesion in the alkaline solution. The long-range force between granite and bitumen was a strong attraction, and adhesion was strong when the solution pH was 4, which is a more special phenomenon. It may be due to the electrostatic attraction between the positive charge on the granite surface and the negative charge on the bitumen surface. Zeta potential values of bitumen droplets and aggregate particles exhibited an overall decreasing trend with increasing solution pH, and the variation of surface potential value is consistent with the variation trend of long-range force between aggregate and bitumen. The microscopic forces between bitumen and aggregate measured by AFM were validated by molecular dynamics simulations, revealing a strong correlation between debonding work and interfacial forces. The results indicate that the adhesion between aggregates and bitumen in aqueous solution followed the order: limestone A > limestone B > basalt > granite, and alkaline conditions are not conducive to preventing water damage in bitumen mixtures. It provides insights into the water stability mechanism of bitumen-aggregate at macroscopic and microscopic scales, offering theoretical support for preventing water damage in bitumen pavements.

Formation Mechanism and Prevention Technology of Mine Water Disaster under Complex Conditions

With the continuous westward shift of China’s coal production center, the western mining areas will play an increasingly important role in ensuring national energy security. It is urgent to extract coal economically and efficiently and realize scientific mining under the premise of ensuring the safe and environmental capacity. This paper systematically summarizes the research progress of coal seam separation water disaster at home and abroad, and elaborates the problem of coal seam separation water disaster from four aspects: formation mechanism of coal seam separation water, disaster-causing mechanism, prediction and early warning of water disaster and key prevention and control technologies. This paper summarizes the research on mining overlying strata separation and the formation mechanism of overlying strata separation water, and summarizes the formation of coal seam overlying strata separation water into three basic conditions: water separation, the existence of recharge water around the separation bed, and the separation space lasting long enough. However, the prevention and control of coal mine water disaster under complex geological conditions is an important problem restricting coal mine safety at present. The water damage prediction of overlying strata separation is summarized from three aspects: prediction of the location of available water separation, prediction of the periodicity of water inrush and prediction of the amount of water inrush, according to the development characteristics of bed separation. In this paper, the water damage prediction of overlying strata separation is summarized from three aspects: prediction of the location of available water separation, prediction of the periodicity of water inrush and prediction of the amount of water inrush. According to the development characteristics of bed-separation and the location of bed-separation water, the main prevention and control methods of bed-separation water damage, such as diversion hole, advance drain hole and ground direct pump hole, are proposed.

The Effect of Sabo Works Design and River Improvement on the Magila River with Consideration on Morphological Changes Influenced by Debris Flow Events

The morphological changes of a river due to debris flow are essential considerations in understanding the dynamics of a river. The Magila River, located in the Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi Province, is a small river with an area of approximately 125 hectares, but the average riverbed slope exceeds 10%. This river faced water damage issues, such as debris floods on December 12, 2019, and overflowing floods on October 11, 2022. Based on the ongoing mitigation (Sabo Works and River Improvement), an analysis of flow modeling through HEC-RAS software with non-Newtonian parameters is also being conducted. Simulations are performed on both the existing river scenario and the design river scenario. The flood and sediment transport simulations indicate that the capacity of the existing river is insufficient to accommodate the planned 100-year return period flood discharge, leading to overflow in several river sections with a maximum inundation height of 42.80 centimeters. The river also tends to experience riverbed degradation, triggering landslide events. In contrast, in the design river, overflow in river sections is reduced, although some areas still experience inundation with a maximum height of 18 centimeters. The river morphology in this scenario is more stable, with a balanced level of degradation and aggradation. The conclusion of this research indicates that a series of ongoing mitigation efforts needs to be expanded to minimize the risk of floods but is already optimal in maintaining river morphology stability. The research findings are expected to be beneficial in maximizing the management of the Magila River.

Establishing the Potential Rice Loss Prediction Model of Climate and Nature Disaster Factors Based on Machine Learning Theory

The United Nations points out that extreme climate events are frequent and widespread in the 21st century and have become a global security issue. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have attracted much attention in environmental applications. This study aims at applying machine learning (ML) to rice disaster prediction, and uses SPSS to analyze environmental impact factors. After model training and evaluation, four models are provided, among which short-term prediction results show high accuracy on a single event, which are suitable for water damage, cold damage, and plant diseases and insect pests respectively. In terms of longterm prediction, using future meteorological prediction values to predict potential rice losses is better, especially within a specific time period. Ultimately, relevant units such as the Council of Agriculture or the AgriFood and Food Administration can choose a suitable model based on different purposes (short-term or long-term forecasting).

Research on Exploration and Management of Water Damage in Limestone Ground Areas of Pan’er Coal Mine

High Temperature Performance of Rubber-Modified Asphalt Mixtures in Water-Light-Heat Coupled Environment

Asphalt pavement has been repeatedly subjected to vehicle loads during service. The probability and risk of water damage and asphalt deterioration of asphalt pavements is relatively higher in high temperature and rainy areas such as the Guangxi region of China. In this paper, the changes in rubbermodified asphalt and its mixtures under high temperature, water cycling, and ultraviolet light have been investigated. The coupled water-light-heat effects on asphalt pavements were simulated by developing a freeze-thaw cycle test protocol and a UV environment simulator. The high temperature performance of asphalt and asphalt mixtures before and after aging was compared and statistically analyzed by indoor tests of needle penetration, ductility, softening point, rutting factor and dynamic stability. Under water-light-heat coupling, rubberized asphalt showed a deeper degree of aging, accelerated conversion of asphalt to a highly elastic material, and an increased tendency to reduce flow capacity. The results showed decreasing dynamic stability of rubberized asphalt mixtures with decreasing needle penetration and ductility, increasing softening point, increasing rutting factor and decreasing phase angle. The effect of UV light on asphalt needle penetration was more significant, while the number of freeze-thaw cycles had a more pronounced effect on softening point.

RESEARCH ON INNOVATIVE BITUMEN-BASED CARGOSFALT PRODUCTS IN ORDER TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE MADE FROM ASPHALT MIXTURES OR CEMENT CONCRETE

Exposure to natural elements such as ultraviolet radiation, moisture, acids and saline solutions produces a succession of chemical changes in the composition of asphalt, especially in the oxidation process leading to the loss of elasticity and adhesive properties. The presented products are made on the basis of bitumen, modified with a polymer compound, with the purpose of extending the life of the road by at least 3 to 5 years from application. The materials prevent surface oxidation and surface decomposition by blocking the appearance of microcracks, caused by water, erosion and road damage. The products are easy to apply and offer an economical solution for road maintenance.

Research on Integrated Layer Determination and Fault Crossing Technology of Multi-branch Horizontal Wells for Surface Area Management

Based on the application of multi-branch horizontal well technology in surface area management, combined with the hydrogeological structure of the coal bed floor, the method of determining the layer by azimuthal gamma, rock chip logging and drilling parameters is proposed. Combined with the change of azimuthal gamma, determine whether drilling encounters faults or not, put forward the technology of crossing faults when drilling encounters different types of faults, improve the rate of drilling smooth layer, reduce the leakage of drilling fluids, and form a set of key technologies of comprehensive stratigraphy judgment and crossing faults applicable to the grouting of multi-branch horizontal wells at the surface, based on the existing engineering examples, analyze the stratigraphy, tectonic conditions, and the application of comprehensive stratigraphy judgment and crossing faults technology in the case of directional drilling. The average smooth layer rate of Z1 and Z2 hole group is 96.96% and 99.2% respectively, which effectively ensures the quality of grouting in the fault structure area and is of great significance to the prevention and control of water damage in the mine.

Phase change material nanocomposites as an internal curing aid for nano-modified concrete under cold weather

Ultrafine nano-silica particles can improve the hydration process and concrete performance due to its high surface area and potent reactivity, which may be utilized to counteract the adverse effects of cold temperatures. In the current study, five nano-modified concrete mixtures were prepared to investigate the effect of a curing freezing temperature (−15 ℃) on their mechanical and physical properties, durability, and microstructure features. All mixtures comprised calcium nitrate-nitrite as a cold weather admixture system (CWAS) to depress the freezing point of mixing water. In addition, nano-silica or nano-clay powders impregnated with phase change material (PCM) were added to the mixtures as internal curing nanocomposites. All mixtures were cured at − 15ºC to simulate winter conditions in cold regions. The mixtures’ performance was assessed based on setting times, 7 and 28 days compressive strengths, fluid absorption, and resistance to frost damage in water and salt solution. Furthermore, thermogravimetry, scanning electron microscopy associated with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and mercury intrusion porosimetry were performed to assess the hydration, microstructural development, and pore structure features of the produced concrete, respectively. The coexistence of nano-silica and CWAS with the nanocomposites, especially in the case of nano-silica powder as a host for PCM, markedly improved the overall performance of concrete. This highlights the promising use of nano-modified concrete cured internally with nanocomposites for cold weather construction applications (down to −15 ℃), without the need for heating practices.

FARKLI DİATOMİT İÇERİĞİ İÇİN ASFALT KAPLAMA PERFORMANSININ DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

The majority of steel and reinforced concrete bridges are produced with asphalt pavement. The reason for this is to protect steel and concrete structures from the effects of water and degrading salt additives and to increase their durability. Asphalt bridge superstructures are mostly manufactured with four layers. These layers are the primer bonding layer, waterproofing layer, protection layer and surface asphalt wearing layers. The superstructure must protect the supporting substructure. It should protect the life of the structure and ensure the integrity of the structure against permanent deformation, aging, raveling, water damage and chemical effects. Diatomite additive is used as a performance enhancer in various aspects. It is generally preferred in the region of 5%-15% according to the bitumen mass. The granulometric size and chemical properties of the diatomite additive are other effective factors. In this study, the rutting resistance of conventional and diatomite-modified asphalt pavement for 5% and 10% ratios for selected diatomite additive gradation is investigated. The rutting resistance of the pavements is investigated by repeated creep tests for two different additive ratios on water-damaged and control mixtures. In unconditioned samples, 5% diatomite-modified mixtures; in conditioned samples, 10% diatomite-modified mixtures showed the greatest deformation resistance.

Study of a Small Robot for Mine Hole Detection

China is rich in coal resources, but complex hydrogeological conditions lead to difficulties in coal mining, including coal mine collapses, roof and water damage, and other accidents that occur frequently, resulting in many casualties and property losses. The use of coal mine hole detection technology to detect and analyze the internal environment of the coal mines in advance helps to reduce safety hazards and prevent coal mine accidents; however, the operation of existing coal mine hole detection technology is cumbersome, difficult to control, and encounters problems due to an insufficient depth of jacking. This paper designs a new type of small robot for mine hole detection. Firstly, we analyzed the function and structural design of the mine hole detection robot, designed a variable diameter function according to the characteristics of narrow and uneven mine holes in coal mines, and analyzed the mechanics of the critical parts using theoretical calculations. Secondly, using three-dimensional modeling software (Solidworks 2019), we established a structural model of the small robot for mine hole detection. After that, we designed a hardware circuit and control program for the robot and emphasized the safety design of the circuit, considering the presence of water and gas inside the coal mine. Finally, to verify the feasibility of the design program, the basic parameters and function tests of the mine hole-detection small robot were carried out. The experimental results show that the developed mine hole-detection small robot can adapt to working hole diameters from 65 mm to 100 mm and has a maximum working power of only 12 W and a maximum crawling speed of 3.96 m/min. The maximum crawling slope reaches 90°, which can meet existing mine hole inspection needs. This research provides theoretical and design guidance for developing mine hole-detection robots with substantial engineering practical reference values.

Water Damage Resistance of Tuff Asphalt Mixtures with Admixtures Based on Surface Energy Theory

At present, tuff aggregates as asphalt pavement mixtures have insufficient water damage resistance; hence, modifying and evaluating the related properties of tuff asphalt mixtures are necessary. In this study, cement and a liquid antistripping agent were selected as admixtures, and tuff and limestone mixtures without admixtures were selected as control. The surface energy for the SBS-modified asphalt polymers and aggregates in the mixtures was evaluated by using surface energy theory. The adhesion work and the spalling work of the polymer–aggregate interface was calculated, and a factor k was proposed to predict the water damage resistance of the tuff mixture with admixtures. The prediction values were compared with those of the macroscopic water stability test for the mixture. The results of this research showed that the factor k after adding admixtures was improved, and the increase range was from 7.14% to 47.62%. The admixture scheme with the best improvement was that with 2% cement content, in which the k value increased by 21.57% and 47.62% compared with that of the limestone and tuff mixtures without admixtures, respectively. The tested water stability indexes and the predicted factor k under different admixture schemes exhibited a good positive correlation, and the correlation equations were obtained by linear fitting. Thus, it was feasible to use the factor k characterizing the water damage resistance of tuff mixtures using surface energy theory.

Bed Separation Formation Mechanism and Water Inrush Evaluation in Coal Seam Mining under a Karst Cave Landform

Understanding the formation mechanism of bed separation in coal seam mining under a karst landform is needed for the prevention and control of roof-separated water damage in such areas. This research used a mine in the northern Guizhou coalfield, China, as a case study, and applied theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and on-site measurement to develop a circular cave structure model in a key stratum. The dynamic evolution of a separation bed was analyzed from several aspects, including the formation mechanism, development location, the mechanical condition of local karst caves, fracture evolution, and fractal rules. Verification using in situ measurements is presented for the case study mine, and a quantitative evaluation method for water inrush from bed separation and improved fusion weighting is proposed based on a cloud model. The research results indicate the following: (1) Tensile cracks are prone to occur above and below a karst cave, which produce an impact of connectivity on the separated space. (2) When the working face advances to 270 m in coal mining, longitudinal tensile cracks below the karst cave gradually increase and the width of the bed separation crack shrinks to 68.2 m, with a maximum separation layer height of 3.01 m. (3) Based on the cloud model and the improved weighted fusion method, the risk of water inrush in bed separation is judged as “high”. The En of the cloud digital features is 0.0622 and the He is 0.0307, achieving a quantitative evaluation of water inrush in the separation layer that is consistent with on-site practice, and is highly stable and reliable. This study improves the understanding of the development pattern of bed separation and water inrush risk assessment in coal seam mining under a karst cave landform.

Distribution and location of damages in Swedish buildings

Different damages and defects in buildings create huge cost for owners and the society. Besides free water damages, current knowledge about damages in buildings in general focuses on costs and has a qualitative approach rather than based on real quantitative facts. This paper presents the location and distribution of 1105 different damages, failures, and functional defects in Swedish buildings based on real damage investigations. Besides moisture inventories, most of the damage investigations were initiated by perceived SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) or visible free water. Possible negative effects on the indoor environment caused by different types of microbial growth were the most common damage. Damages often become noticed and, at a later state, located in ordinary rooms or classrooms. Most of the damages were located in the exterior wall and generally in wooden materials. The number of reported damages in the form of emissions from flooring due to degradation of glue was low in the studied sample.

Exploring the short-term water damage characteristics of asphalt mixtures: The combined effect of salt erosion and dynamic water scouring

In icy or snowy conditions, improper application and uneven dispersion of deicing salts on roadways can lead to saltwater accumulation, subsequently causing roadway scouring when vehicles transit. This study aims to assess the combined influence of salt erosion and dynamic water scouring on short-term water damage of asphalt mixtures. A custom-designed dynamic water scouring simulation apparatus is used, employing three diverse deicing salt solutions as agents for dynamic water scouring. Numerous iterations of dynamic water scouring tests are conducted on two types of graded asphalt mixtures. Post-scouring, alterations in air void content and water stability are evaluated through void content tests, Marshall water immersion tests, and freeze-thaw splitting tests. Additionally, the GM (1,N) damage prediction model from gray theory is applied for data modeling and prediction. The results reveal a significant impact of the combined effects of salt erosion and dynamic water scouring on the short-term performance of asphalt mixtures. In the early phase, dynamic water scouring primarily influences the asphalt composite, augmenting micro-cracks and causing aggregate disintegration. The intermediate phase sees the disintegration of the asphalt membrane by deicing salts, disrupting adhesion between asphalt and aggregate, and progressively leading to the emergence of new micro-cracks. During later stages, dynamic water scouring continues to deteriorate the asphalt composite, building on the erosion instigated by deicing salts, resulting in the expansion of newly formed micro-cracks and further aggregate disintegration. Among the three deicing salts, CH4N2O exhibits the most pronounced impact on short-term water damage, followed by NaCl, while CH2CH3OH has the least effect. Increasing the fine aggregate proportion in the asphalt mixture enhances water damage resistance. The GM (1,N) damage prediction model effectively anticipates air void content and water stability of asphalt mixtures. The research outcomes offer theoretical and technical support for understanding the durability and service lifespan of asphalt pavements in cold regions.
