Microwave irradiation-induced deterioration of rock mechanical properties and implications for mechanized hard rock excavation by Zheng Yang, Ming Tao, Muhammad Burhan Memon, Dengdeng Zhuang, Yan Zhao

“…The damage mechanisms of microwave heating and water cooling on sandstone were discussed from both macroscopic and microscopic perspectives. The experimental results demonstrated that as the duration of the microwave irradiation increased, the P-wave velocity, uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), elastic modulus (E), tensile strength, and fracture toughness of sandstone exhibited various degrees of weakness and were further weakened by water cooling. …”

Bolkov, Muhammad Yasir Akbar, Liu Guojun, Svetlana S. Deryabina, Irina A. Tuzankina, Valery. A. Chereshnev

“…Our study suggested that eight nsSNPs (rs28931611, rs57246956, rs137854448, rs193141883, rs201723157, rs201139487, rs137854451, and rs200384291) are the most deleterious in ELANE gene and disturb protein structure and function. The mutants F218L, R34W, G203S, R193W, and T175M have not yet been identified in patients suffering from SCN and cyclic hematopoiesis, while C71Y, P139R, C151Y, G214R, and G203C reported in our study are already associated with both of the disorders. …”
