Numerical Study of Tire Hydroplaning Based on Power Spectrum of Asphalt Pavement and Kinetic Friction Coefficient by Shengze Zhu, Xiuyu Liu, Qingqing Cao, Xiaoming Huang

“…It happens when tire rolls on wet pavement with high speed that hydrodynamic force uplifts the tire. Accurate numerical simulation to reveal the mechanism of hydroplaning and evaluate the function of relevant factors in this process is significant. …”

Characterization of natural fractures and in-situ stress in high-steep coal-bearing strata in the Midong area in Xinjiang and influence on engineering by Jiawei WU, Jian ZHANG, Yumin LYU, Yanhe ZHU, Cunwu WANG, Yue ZHANG, Silu CHEN, Jingyu ZI

“…Among them, bedding fractures/weak planes are easily activated during strata uplifts under NNW compression. Imaging logging reveals that bedding fractures/weak planes are widely developed in the syncline core of the Badaowan Formation, and their occurrences are consistent with those of strata. …”
