Stellar Physics and General Relativity
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The general theory of relativity is currently established as the most precise theory of gravity supported by observations, and its application is diverse ranging from astronomy to cosmology, while its application to astrophysics has been restricted only to compact stars due to the assumption that the Newtonian approximation is sufficient for ...

Rapid Damage Scenario Assessment for Earthquake Emergency Management
Seismological Research Letters, 2021 AbstractThe rapid availability of reliable damage statistics, after the occurrence of a major earthquake, is an essential mitigation strategy to drive and support emergency intervention operations. Unfortunately, the latency in collecting and organizing actual damage information has a substantial impact on the efficiency of the initial phases of the ...

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.The Joulters ooid sandbody of northern Great Bahama Bank is a vast expanse of muddy ooid sands partly rimmed by clean ooid sands and formed into a relatively thick layer of significant extent. Knowledge of the development of depositional and diagenetic patterns in the Joulters example has forwarded our general understanding of carbonate sedimentology ...

Scenario-based earthquake hazard and risk assessment for Baku (Azerbaijan) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010 A rapid growth of population, intensive civil and industrial building, land and water instabilities (e.g. landslides, significant underground water level fluctuations), and the lack of public awareness regarding seismic hazard contribute to the increase ...

Fracturing behaviors of flawed granite induced by dynamic loadings: A study based on DIP and PFC
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This research examines granite's mechanical properties under split‐Hopkinson pressure bar testing, focusing on factors such as grain size and flaw dimensions. The study reveals that tension cracks are prevalent across grain sizes, with most intergrain cracks occurring between feldspar and quartz.
