The accessibility of rail transit station areas is an important factor affecting the efficiency of rail transit. Taking the Beijing rail transit station area as our research object, this paper took a 15 min walking distance as the index of station area accessibility, and investigated the status quo and influencing factors of the unbalanced distribution of rail transit station area accessibility in Beijing. In this paper, the data of Beijing rail transit stations were obtained from the Amap open platform, and the accessibility of the station area was calculated using the path planning service provided by the Amap API. The Getis-Ord Gi* method was used to analyze the overall distribution characteristics of the accessibility of the Beijing rail transit station area, then the high accessibility area and the low accessibility area were determined. To explore the factors influencing domain accessibility, multi-source data were obtained, a total of 11 indicators were constructed, and the random forest model was used to identify feature importance. Using the eight selected influencing factors, the OLS regression model, GWR model, and MGWR model were used to study the spatial heterogeneity of influencing factors. By comparison, it was concluded that the MGWR model can not only effectively analyze the spatial heterogeneity of rail transit station accessibility, which can automatically mediate the bandwidth of different influencing factors, and then reflect the spatial changes of the influencing factors of rail transit station accessibility more truly. The results show that (1) the accessibility of the Beijing rail transit station area shows obvious spatial agglomeration characteristics in space. The accessibility of the station area in the fourth ring is higher than that outside of the fourth ring road, and the accessibility near the south and north fifth ring road is higher than that of the east fifth ring road and the west fifth ring road. (2) The basic influencing factors of rail transit station accessibility include road density and functional mixing degree.

Urban rail transit systems, represented by subways, have significantly alleviated the traffic pressure brought by urbanization and have addressed issues such as traffic congestion. However, as a commonly used construction method for subway tunnels, shield tunneling inevitably disturbs the surrounding soil, leading to uneven ground surface settlement, which can impact the safety of nearby buildings. Therefore, it is crucial to promptly obtain and predict the ground surface settlement induced by shield tunneling construction to enable safety warnings and evaluations.

The existing calculation method for the surrounding rock pressure of shallow buried bias tunnel fails to account for the impact of the progressive failure characteristics of the surrounding rock and slope creep, thereby neglecting the additional pressure arising from slope creep. Therefore, the progressive instability failure mode of the surrounding rock of shallow buried bias tunnel was obtained by numerical simulation. Based on this, the theoretical analysis model of the additional pressure of shallow buried bias tunnel was established, and the calculation formula of the additional pressure was derived.

This study aims to investigate the impact of isolation piles on soil vibrations in the environment surrounding suburban railways. Initially, a comprehensive numerical model of the train was established to simulate the wheel-rail interaction forces, which were then applied to a three-dimensional coupled track-soil model. The accuracy of the model was validated through comparison with measured data.

Accurately assessing the low-temperature performance of asphalt materials is important for asphalt pavements in cold regions with large temperature differences. This study investigates the effects of freeze-thaw cycles on the low-temperature performance of basalt fiber-rubber powder composite modified asphalt mixtures (BRMAM). The influence of basalt fibers content on the mechanical properties of asphalt binder was characterized through basic property tests and bending beam rheometer (BBR) assessments.

Tricalcium silicate (TCS)-based bioactive cements have attracted great attention for various endodontic applications owing to their hydraulic property, sealing ability and biological properties. Nevertheless, poor handling property and anti-washout ability are the main challenges for traditional TCS-based cements and their osteoinductive capacity needs enhance for accelerated pulpal and periapical tissue repair/regeneration. Herein, we developed an injectable TCS/α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP)/hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) biocomposite with improved physicochemical properties and osteoinductive ability via the incorporation of α-TCP/HPMC.
