AbstractRock bursts in roadway groups of deep mining workfaces are more likely to occur due to concentrated static loads, posing significant threats to mining safety and efficiency. In this study, the coal mine roadway groups in western China are taken as an engineering case to investigate the occurrence mechanism of rock bursts in deep mining workfaces caused by concentrated static loads.

AbstractMolecular dynamics (MD) is an indispensable atomistic-scale computational tool widely-used in various disciplines. In the past decades, nearly all ab initio MD and machine-learning MD have been based on the general-purpose central/graphics processing units (CPU/GPU), which are well-known to suffer from their intrinsic “memory wall” and “power wall” bottlenecks.

AbstractThe extreme cooling of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) during the boreal winter typically poses threats to the local environment and people’s safety, and it is usually attributed to internal climate variability. Here we demonstrate that the five recent large tropical volcanic eruptions since 1880 have caused an average extreme cooling of up to −0.80 K on the TP in observations during the first boreal winter following the eruptions.
