It is essential to cast light on the construction risks in tunnel excavations through the fault-fracture zone (FFZ).This study adopts the material point method (MPM) to simulate the kaiser copy stands failure responses of a rock tunnel face during excavation through the FFZ.A numerical study was conducted to compare a physical model test and valida
In order to fabricate the composite electrodes of a supercapacitor, transition-metal oxide materials NiO and WO3 were deposited on carbon electrodes by electron beam evaporation.The influences of various transition-metal oxides, scan rates of cyclic voltammograms (CVs), and galvanostatic charge/discharge tests on the characteristics of supercapacit
The search for hitherto undiscovered larvae of Anisakis sp.from marine habitat in the Indian sub-continent yielded A.typica (Dujardin) larvae hitherto unconfirmed.The present study is the maiden attempt to report 3rd stage larvae of A.typica from the reef-associated Sillago sihama in Arabian Sea off the coast of Goa, which has been identified recen
The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis) is an endangered species with an important evolutionary significance.However, the current rate of decline projects the extinction of the species within a few decades in the Republic of Korea.The species is presently exclusively inhabiting rice paddies and is not present in any protected area, although it
