The effect of propagation saw test geometries on critical cut length [PDF]
For a slab avalanche to release, a crack in a weak snow layer beneath a cohesive snow slab has to initiate and propagate. Information on crack propagation is essential for assessing avalanche triggering potential.

Effects of heat on cut mark characteristics. [PDF]
Cut marks on bones provide crucial information about tools used and their mode of application, both in archaeological and forensic contexts. Despite a substantial amount of research on cut mark analysis and the influence of fire on bones (shrinkage ...

Investigation of Lateral Stress Relief on theStability of PHI = 0 DEG Slopes Using Laboratory, Fracture Mechanics, and Finite Element Method Approaches [PDF]
Total stress analyses of purely cohesive cut slopes utilize the undrained shear strength for slope stability analyses. These slopes can have an in-situ lateral earth pressure that is greater than the vertical pressure.

Mechanical behavior of cut-slope reinforced with double-row stabilizing pipe piles
Stabilizing pipe piles are small-diameter prestressed concrete elements that can be constructed rapidly. Double-row stabilizing pipe piles are increasingly used to reinforce small- to medium-scale landslides and engineering slopes; however, studies on ...

Propane from the North Slope: Could It Reduce Energy Costs in the Interior? [PDF]
Could propane from the North Slope cut energy costs in Fairbanks and other Interior communities that heat buildings or generate electricity with fuel oil or naphtha? The Alaska Natural Gas Development Authority (ANGDA) thinks it could. That’s because

Soil-atmosphere interaction in unsaturated cut slopes [PDF]
Interaction between atmosphere and soil has only recently attracted significant interest. Soil-atmosphere interaction takes place under dynamic climatic conditions, which vary throughout the year and are expected to suffer considerable alterations due to climate change.
