Fluid Factor Of Fracture And Seismic Velocity Response In Anisotropic Coal Beds, Li Qin, Ma Suibo, Zhao Bin Dec 2019

Fluid Factor Of Fracture And Seismic Velocity Response In Anisotropic Coal Beds, Li Qin, Ma Suibo, Zhao Bin

Coal Geology & Exploration

The storage and transport of gas and water in coal seam are related to the density, strike and filler of cracks. Research on the identification and prediction of coal seam cracks will be helpful to prevent and control disastrous accidents in coal mines, such as water inrush and gas outburst. It plays an important role in the safety evaluation of coal mining. Based on the theory of fracture equivalent model, the variation characteristics of fluid factor in coal seam crevices with different fillings and fracture weaknesses parameters(fracture density, aspect ratio, volume modulus, shear modulus, Lamé parameters) are analyzed by combining …


Structural Health Monitoring Of Composite Parts: A Review, Jacob Pessin Jun 2019

Structural Health Monitoring Of Composite Parts: A Review, Jacob Pessin

Honors Theses

Structural health monitoring has the potential to allow composite structures to be more reliable and safer, then by using more traditional damage assessment techniques. Structural health monitoring (SHM) utilizes individual sensor units that are placed throughout the load bearing sections of a structure and gather data that is used for stress analysis and damage detection. Statistical time based algorithms are used to analyze collected data and determine both damage size and probable location from within the structure. While traditional calculations and life span analysis can be done for structures made of isotropic materials such as steel or other metals, composites …
