Article Abstract
The explosion in foundation poses a significant threat to people and buildings. Currently, a unified empirical prediction formula for crater in calcareous foundation has not been established. In this paper, analyzed the types and sizes of explosion crater with different scaled burial depths through field tests and numerical simulation. In field tests, revealed the influence of scaled burial depth on the type and size of explosion crater and obtained the critical scaled burial depth for three different types of explosion craters, namely ejecta-type crater, collapse-type crater and covert explosion. Through the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamic-Finite Element Method (SPH-FEM) coupling algorithm, studied the movement trajectory of sand particles around the explosive at the moment of explosion in detail. Based on the field tests and numerical simulation results, it was found that calcareous sand has a smaller specific gravity due to its own characteristics, and the size of the explosion crater is larger than that of quartz sand at the same scaled burial depth. Obtained an empirical formula for crater in calcareous sand. Which can quickly predict the size of explosion crater and provide calculation basis for explosion resistant design in calcareous sand foundations.

Numerical modeling of explosion crater formation requires accounting for complex physical processes. Numerical validation of explosion cratering is an important step in modeling and requires experimental data for comparison. Models using discrete elements and continuum models have both benefits and drawbacks to their approaches.

The Perseverance rover is currently exploring Jezero crater to collect, characterize and cache the first planned samples of Mars for future return to Earth. Orbital and rover observations suggest a volcanic origin for crater floor materials, sources of which have thus far been unknown. Here we describe a mountain on the crater's southeastern rim with morphological, thermophysical, and mineralogical properties consistent with explosive volcanoes previously identified on Mars and Earth.

Post-blast residue and the associated increase in heavy metal content in soils from military operation zones pose a significant threat to agricultural lands. A combination of magnetometer surveys, laboratory magnetic methods, X-ray fluorescence techniques, and SEM observations was applied to understand the environmental impact of munition detonations in the Russian-Ukrainian war area in northern Ukraine.This study focuses on differentiating the war-related magnetic and chemical signals from the background of Umbric Albeluvisols Abruptic soil, typically weakly magnetic and low in heavy metal content.

The Red Sea Rift is an ultra-slow spreading rift filled with Miocene salt and younger sediments. While volcanic features can be observed in exposed areas in the southern Red Sea Rift, evidence of volcanism in the sediment-blanketed regions in the central and northern Red Sea Rift has been lacking, leaving open whether the mid-ocean rift axis continues beneath them. Here, we present new multichannel seismic and high-resolution bathymetric data of these blanketed regions.

Massive injection of C depleted carbon to the ocean and atmosphere coincided with major environmental upheaval multiple times in the geological record. For several events, the source of carbon has been attributed to explosive venting of gas produced when magmatic sills intruded organic-rich sediment. The concept mostly derives from studies of a few ancient sedimentary basins with numerous hydrothermal vent complexes (HTVCs) where craters appear to have formed across large areas of the seafloor at the same time, but good examples remain rare in strata younger than the Early Eocene.
