The Kaiser effect reflects the memory of the loaded rock to the irreversible damage and deformation. The stress level, loading rate and lithology are the main factors affecting the Kaiser effect of the rock. To identify the accurate stress point of t...
The Kaiser effect of rock has been extensively studied due to its wide application in in-situ stress measurement and rock damage quantification. The uniaxial cyclic loading and unloading (UCLU) test is commonly employed to examine the rock Kaiser eff...
To investigate the dynamic response of fractured rock under cyclic loading and unloading, a WHY-300/10 microcomputer-controlled electro-hydraulic servo universal testing machine was used to conduct uniaxial cyclic loading and unloading tests. Simulta...
This paper presents two experimental schemes, graded cyclic loading and unloading, and variable lower limit cyclic loading and unloading, to investigate the energy evolution and acoustic emission characteristics of rocks under different cyclic loadin...
A crypto-ransomware has the process to encrypt victim’s files. Afterward, the crypto-ransomware requests a ransom for the password of encrypted files to victims. In this paper, we present a novel approach to prevent crypto-ransomware by detecting blo...
In this study, the invasive orange spiny whitefly (“OSW”; Aleurocanthus spiniferus) and a species of Encarsia parasitising its puparia were studied in three different areas of the province of Modena (Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy): a pea...
Shale is a common rock type that is associated with underground engineering projects, and several important factors, such as bedding structure, confining pressure, and the loading and unloading path, significantly influence the anisotropy of shale. T...
