Role of vibrations in the jamming and unjamming of grains discharging from a silo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present experimental results of the jamming of non-cohesive particles discharged from a flat bottomed silo subjected to vertical vibration. When the exit orifice is only a few grain diameter wide, the flow can be arrested due to the formation of ...

Landscape Arch, Delicate Arch, and Double Arch in Arches National Park, Southeastern Utah

open access: yesGeosites, 2020
Arches National Park in southeastern Utah has the greatest concentration of natural rock arches in the world. The park is located in a geologic region called the Paradox fold and fault belt in the northern Paradox Basin and showcases spectacular and classic Colorado Plateau geology with its colorful sedimentary rocks, ancient sand dunes, cliffs, domes,

The present day mass function in the central region of the Arches cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We study the evolution of the mass function in young and dense star clusters by means of direct N-body simulations. Our main aim is to explain the recent observations of the relatively flat mass function observed near the centre of the Arches star ...

The Arches Cluster Mass Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We have analyzed H and K_s-band images of the Arches cluster obtained using the NIRC2 instrument on Keck with the laser guide star adaptive optics (LGS AO) system. With the help of the LGS AO system, we were able to obtain the deepest ever photometry for

On the lumped damage modelling of reinforced concrete beams and arches

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2020
The analysis of reinforced concrete structures can be performed by means of experiments or numerical studies. The first way is usually quite expensive, so the second one sometimes is a good option to understand the physical behaviour of actual structures.

Disks in the Arches cluster -- survival in a starburst environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Deep Keck/NIRC2 HK'L' observations of the Arches cluster near the Galactic center reveal a significant population of near-infrared excess sources. We combine the L'-band excess observations with K'-band proper motions, to confirm cluster membership of ...

Metal Salt Weighting of Silk: Understanding Practices and Their Historical Context Through Textual Sources

open access: yesHeritage
Treating silk with metal salts was a common practice starting in the second half of the 19th century until the early 20th century. It aimed to increase the weight and thickness of the fibres. However, the presence of metal salts is believed to accelerate

Identification of arches in 2D granular packings

open access: yes, 2006
We identify arches in a bed of granular disks generated by a molecular dynamic-type simulation. We use the history of the deposition of the particles to identify the supporting contacts of each particle.

Implementing Systemic Innovation Strategies for a More Sustainable Future: The Case of Three Overseas Countries and Territories

open access: yesFrontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics, 2022
Addressing sustainability issues requires a radical systemic change across multiple dimensions, including policy, culture, and civil society. This also implies that no blueprints for governing critical sustainability issues both at the local and global ...
