Influence of loading and heating processes on elastic and geomechanical properties of eclogites and granulites

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018
Increased knowledge of the elastic and geomechnical properties of rocks is important for numerous engineering and geoscience applications (e.g. petroleum geoscience, underground waste repositories, geothermal energy, earthquake studies, and hydrocarbon ...

Expansive Soil Crack Depth under Cumulative Damage

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
The crack developing depth is a key problem to slope stability of the expansive soil and its project governance and the crack appears under the roles of dry-wet cycle and gradually develops.

Why Coal Bed Methane (CBM) Production in Some Basins is Difficult

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
The changes in the permeability of coal-bed reservoirs with methane, as associated with gas depletion, are the consequence of two opposing processes, namely geomechanical compaction that narrows down fractures, and matrix shrinkage, which, in turn ...

Left atrial trajectory impairment in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy disclosed by geometric morphometrics and parallel transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The analysis of full Left Atrium (LA) deformation and whole LA deformational trajectory in time has been poorly investigated and, to the best of our knowledge, seldom discussed in patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
