Static and dynamic failure mechanisms of circular granite under the condition of water-heat cycles.

Based on the engineering environment where rocks surrounding wellbores in energy storage areas are influenced by high temperature, cool and hot water, thermal stress etc. in the exploitation of hydrothermally geothermal energy, the experimental study on mechanical properties of ring granite under the static and dynamic loads in the water-heat condition was performed. The experimental results showed that when the ring granite was influenced by the inner diameters, heating temperatures, curing temperatures and heat recovery cycle times, the impact load-strain curves were nonlinear.

Study on the dynamic characteristics of rock surrounding a wellbore in energy storage areas during deep geothermal energy mining.

Based on the engineering background in which the rock surrounding a wellbore is affected by a thermal shock, impact disturbances from drilling vibration, cyclic heat extraction and high temperature during hydrothermal geothermal energy mining, the environmental conditions in the shaft wall rock are simulated by means of high temperature, cooling, immersing granite in water with different curing temperatures and applying impact loads. Additionally, an experimental study on the mechanical characteristics of circular granite specimens under radial impact loads and in the heat treatment and water curing conditions is carried out. The results show that the inner diameters of the rings, heating temperatures, curing water temperatures and cycle heating times are less affected than other parameters by the impact load-strain curves of circular granite, which can generally be divided into three sections, i.

[Study on hospitalization expenses of flood disaster areas' residents of Dongting Lake in Hunan province in 1998].

Objective: To study the expenses of hospitalization among the population in the flood disaster areas of Dongting Lake in Hunan province in 1998.

Methods: Descriptive epidemiologic study were conducted to analyze hospitalization expenses of the residents of 55 villages in flood disaster areas in 1998; single factors analysis and logarithmic linear regression analysis were carried out to explore influencing factors about hospitalization expenses of the residents.

Results: The hospitalization rate was 4.
