The tunnel boring method (TBM) is a widely used and effective tunneling technology in various rock mass quality circumstances. A ?faulted rock mass? can range from a highly fractured rock mass to a sheared weak rock mass, making the ground conditions cha...

Spacecraft are exposed to severe mechanical loads, i.e., shock loads, during their journey to orbit. Such loads usually develop due to a separation event through the activation of pyrotechnic devices. They might be transmitted throughout the entire struc...

Ships and offshore structures are subjected to impact loads, such as slamming and sloshing. High impact pressures can cause permanent hull deformation by a single impact event. In addition, significant fatigue damage can be accumulated via repeated impac...

A simplified numerical model is introduced to predict ice impact force acting on the ship hull in level ice condition. The model is based on ice-hull collision mechanisms and the essential ice breaking characteristics. The two critical ice failure modes,...
