Geologic Controls on Erosion Mechanism on the Alaska Beaufort Coast

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Two prominent arctic coastal erosion mechanisms affect the coastal bluffs along the North Slope of Alaska. These include the niche erosion/block collapse mechanism and the bluff face thaw/slump mechanism.

A model experimental study of the formation mechanism of internal erosion caves in fractured loess

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2023
The formation mechanism of caves in fissured loess at the edge of the loess platform plateau is complex and is closely related to the occurrence of geological hazards such as landslides, which pose a serious threat to the production and life of people in

Lava channel formation during the 2001 eruption on Mount Etna: evidence for mechanical erosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report the direct observation of a peculiar lava channel that was formed near the base of a parasitic cone during the 2001 eruption on Mount Etna. Erosive processes by flowing lava are commonly attributed to thermal erosion.

The significance of velocity exponents in identifying erosion-corrosion mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The modes of erosion-corrosion are diverse and may vary from being ''erosion-dominated'', where erosion of metal is the dominant process, to ''corrosion-dominated'', where erosion of oxide scale is the dominant process.

Elucidating the specific and combined effects of particle size, impact angle, velocity and stress from an external load on the slurry erosion of mild steel S275JR

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2021
Erosion is known to cost the oil and gas industry millions of dollars in maintenance and repairs. While velocity, particle size, angle of impact and material properties such as hardness of particle and target are known to affect erosion rate, little is ...

Erosion of gadolinia doped EB-PVD TBCs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Gadolinia additions have been shown to significantly reduce the thermal conductivity of EB-PVD TBCs. The aim of this paper is to further the understanding on the effects of dopants on the erosion resistance of EB-PVD TBCs by studying the effects of 2 ...

Mechanisms of erosion of atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Lipidology, 2017
Purpose of review The present review explores the mechanisms of superficial intimal erosion, a common cause of thrombotic complications of atherosclerosis. Recent findings Human coronary artery atheroma that give rise to thrombosis because of erosion differ diametrically from those ...

A Review of the Erosion of Thermal Barrier Coatings. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The application of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) to components with internal cooling in the hot gas stream of gas turbine engines has facilitated a steep increase in the turbine entry temperature and the associated increase in performance and ...

3D character of backward erosion piping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Backward erosion piping is an important failure mechanism for cohesive water-retaining structures which are founded on a sandy aquifer. Nowadays, piping research and safety assessments are often based on experimental or numerical modelling using ...

A review on loess subsurface-erosion mechanism and it’s hazard effects

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao, 2021
Loess subsurface-erosion refers to the erosion, transport and subsidence of loess caused by surface water infiltration along the dominant seepage channels such as loess macropore joints and fissures.
