Numerical Implementation of a Critical State Model for Soft Rocks [PDF]
This paper details the basic tasks for the numerical implementation of a simple elasto-plastic critical state model for bonded materials (i.e. soft rocks-hard soils) into the finite element program SNAC developed at the University of Newcastle in ...

A fluid flow perspective on the diagenesis of Te Aute limestones [PDF]
Pliocene cool-water, bioclastic Te Aute limestones in East Coast Basin, New Zealand, accumulated either in shelfal shoal areas or about structurally shallow growth fold structures in the tectonically active accretionary forearc prism.

Discriminating cool-water from warm-water carbonates and their diagenetic environments using element geochemistry: the Oligocene Tikorangi Formation (Taranaki Basin) and the dolomite effect [PDF]
Fields portrayed within bivariate element plots have been used to distinguish between carbonates formed in warm- (tropical) water and cool- (temperate) water depositional settings.

Frictional behavior of talc-calcite mixtures [PDF]
Faults involving phyllosilicates appear weak when compared to the laboratory-derived strength of most crustal rocks. Among phyllosilicates, talc, with very low friction, is one of the weakest minerals involved in various tectonic settings.

Fracture Resistance of Compromised Endodontically Treated Teeth Restored with Bonded Post and Cores: An in Vitro Study [PDF]
Statement of problem: It is unclear which post and core system performs best when bonded to severely compromised endodontically treated teeth. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the fracture resistance and mode of failure of severely ...
