Matrix gas flow through “impermeable” rocks – shales and tight sandstone [PDF]
The effective pressure sensitivity of gas flow through two shales (Bowland and Haynesville shales) and a tight gas sandstone (Pennant sandstone) was measured over the typical range of reservoir pressure conditions.

A Discrete Model of Rock-Soil Medium Response in the Determination of Horizontal Strain Values
This paper presents a method for determining the standard deviation and variation coefficient for both the predicted and measured values of horizontal strain that were caused by underground mining operations. The solution was based on a discrete model of

The geometry and thickness of deformation-band fault core and its influence on sealing characteristics of deformation-band fault zones [PDF]
Deformation-band faults in high-porosity reservoir sandstones commonly contain a fault core of intensely crushed rock surrounding the main slip surfaces.

Surface quality and dry sliding wear behavior of AZ61Mg alloy using Abbott firestone technique
Currently, magnesium alloys are widely utilized in diverse sectors due to their unique properties. However, the AZ61Mg alloy, a commonly used magnesium alloy, is known to have poor wear resistance, which limits its applications.

The Mohr–Coulomb criterion for intact rock strength and friction – a re-evaluation and consideration of failure under polyaxial stresses [PDF]
Darley Dale and Pennant sandstones were tested under conditions of both axisymmetric shortening and extension normal to bedding. These are the two extremes of loading under polyaxial stress conditions.

q-Deformed and c-Deformed Harmonic Oscillators [PDF]
Summary: Hamilton functions of classical deformed oscillators (\(c\)-deformed oscillators) are derived from Hamiltonians of \(q\)-deformed oscillators of the Macfarlane and Dubna types. A new scale parameter, \(l_q\), with the dimension of length, is introduced to relate a dimensionless parameter characterizing the deformation with the natural length ...

Application of Electron Backscatter Diffraction to Calcite-Twinning Paleopiezometry
Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) was used to determine the orientation of mechanically twinned grains in Carrara marble experimentally deformed to a small strain (≤4%) at room temperature and at a moderate confining pressure (225 MPa).

Classifying deformable and non-deformable video objects [PDF]
This paper presents a fully automated approach to classifying deformable and non-deformable moving objects in a video surveillance scene. We estimate an object's motion using Marzat optical-flow algorithm. We filter the motion vectors and attempt to find the transformation that represents the correct mapping between the two positions.

Measurement and analysis of brain deformation during neurosurgery. [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that the surface of the brain is deformed by up to 20 mm after the skull is opened during neurosurgery, which could lead to substantial error in commercial image-guided surgery systems.
