Study on effective influence radius of liquid CO2 phase transition fracturing in high drainage roadway of deep coal seam

This study integrates theoretical, numerical, and field methods to determine that liquid CO2 phase transition fracturing with a 450 g equivalent TNT mass effectively achieves an influence radius of 21.08–30.16 m in deep coal seams, recommending a 5 m borehole spacing to significantly enhance gas extraction in high-gas, low-permeability environments.

Influence of the high-melting-point solder addition on the thermo-mechanical reliability of solderable anisotropic polymer composites containing low- melting-point solder

The study demonstrates that incorporating high-melting-point solder into low-melting-point solder-based anisotropic polymer composites significantly enhances their thermo-mechanical reliability during thermal shock testing by strengthening initial bonding, suppressing microstructural coarsening, and slowing intermetallic compound growth.
