Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mount Erciyes, the largest active volcano of Central Anatolia (Turkey), erupted explosively during the Holocene, producing the Karagüllü, Perikartin and Dikkartin tuff rings. Even though major cities like Kayseri and its ~1 million residents sit directly on these pyroclastic deposits, the timing and magnitude of the explosive eruptions have ...

Wavelet-based vibration denoising for structural health monitoring
Urban LifelineIn the context of civil engineering applications, vibration responses are complex, exhibiting variations in time and space and often containing nonlinearity and uncertainties not considered during data collection. These responses can also be contaminated

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Thermographic non-destructive evaluation for natural fiber-reinforced composite laminates [PDF]
, 2018 Natural fibers, including mineral and plant fibers, are increasingly used for polymer composite materials due to their low environmental impact. In this paper, thermographic non-destructive inspection techniques were used to evaluate and characterize ...

A Coupled Chemohydraulic Model of a Hydration Experiment
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article presents a model for the hydration of periclase into brucite during water infiltration into a dry, pure periclase core. The hydration process proceeds in two stages. In Phase I, an infiltration front advances through the core while simultaneously triggering the hydration reaction.

The geology and geochronology of Al Wahbah maar crater, Harrat Kishb, Saudi Arabia [PDF]
, 2014 Al Wahbah is a large (∼2.2 km diameter, ∼250 m deep) maar crater in the Harrat Kishb volcanic field in western Saudi Arabia. It cuts Proterozoic basement rocks and two Quaternary basanite lava flows, and is rimmed with an eroded tuff ring of debris from ...
