Experimental study on evaluation of density, P-wave velocity, thermal conductivity, and thermal diffusion coefficient of granite after thermal treatments by using PCA

With the depletion of resources in the shallow section of the earth, numerous studies concentrate on the properties of deep rock 1,2,3. The effects of temperatures on the physical–mechanical ...

Experimental study evaluating the performance of thermal conductivity prediction models for air–water saturated weathered sandstone heritage

As a critical parameter, thermal conductivity directly determines the heat transfer and temperature variation within rocks, which can lead to mechanical damage and chemical corrosion. Consequently, ...
