Settlement below embankments: factors controlling the depth of the deformation zone [PDF]
Central European Geology, 2014 The issue of settlement and the calculation of the thickness of the deformation zone are addressed in this paper. A short overview is given concerning the thickness of the deformation zone values used in general practice; the available soil models are also briefly introduced.

Strain-induced modifications of transport in gated graphene nanoribbons [PDF]
, 2014 We investigate the effects of homogeneous and inhomogeneous deformations and edge disorder on the conductance of gated graphene nanoribbons. Under increasing homogeneous strain the conductance of such devices initially decreases before it acquires a ...

Do variations in Arabian plate lithospheric structure control deformation in the Arabian-Eurasian convergence zone? [PDF]
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2008 The Arabian plate has been converging with Eurasia for 20-30 Ma, currently at 2-3 cm/year. Convergence is manifested differently along strike, with collision and tectonic escape in the west (Anatolia) and subduction of Arabia beneath Eurasia in the east (Iran).
