Invisibility and PT Symmetry: A Simple Geometrical Viewpoint [PDF]
We give a simplified account of the properties of the transfer matrix for a complex one-dimensional potential, paying special attention to the particular instance of unidirectional invisibility.

Quality of reconstituted tailings samples based on their mechanical response [PDF]
With a growing global population and greater environmental awareness modern societies inevitably need more mineral resources. Thus, an increase in mining activity is expected through the reactivation of old mines and/or the licensing of new explorations.

EFFECT OF ALIGNMENT ON THE QUALITY OF BENDER ELEMENT PROCEDURE
One of the main geophysical tools (seismic tools) in the laboratory is the bender element. This tool can be used to measure some dynamic soil properties (e.g. shear and Young’s modulus). However, even if it relatively simple to use the bender element, inconsistent testing procedures can cause poor quality in the bender element data.

The bender element (BE) test is widely employed in geotechnical engineering for measuring the shear wave velocity (Vs) and, consequently, the small-strain shear modulus (G0), due to its ease of application, integration into geotechnical devices, and ...

Influence of grain size distribution on dynamic shear modulus of sands
The paper presents the results of laboratory tests, that verify the correlation between the grain-size characteristics of non-cohesive soils and the value of the dynamic shear modulus.
