Mechanical Properties of Frozen Glacial Tills due to Short Periods of Thawing

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Due to the warming climate, glacier retreat has left massive glacial tills in steep gullies; ice in the soil is prone to change phase resulting in the decrease of the ice strength and bonding of soil particles; collapse of thawing tills can lead to ...

Role of surface roughness in superlubricity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study the sliding of elastic solids in adhesive contact with flat and rough interfaces. We consider the dependence of the sliding friction on the elastic modulus of the solids.

Numerical comparison between Hashin and Chang-Chang failure criteria in terms of inter-laminar damage behavior of laminated composite

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2021
In this paper, a general three-dimensional finite element model composed of eight-node three-dimension cohesive elements and eight-node solid elements with reduced integration for low-velocity impact analysis of composite materials is established ...

Plane problem of discrete environment mechanics

open access: yesПроблеми трибології, 2022
Many engineering problems related to the design of structures and machines, the mathematical description of technological processes, etc., are reduced to the need to solve a plane problem for materials with a significant effect of internal friction on ...

Numerical modeling of friction stir welding using the tools with polygonal pins

open access: yesDefence Technology, 2015
Friction stir welding using the tools with polygonal pins is often found to improve the mechanical strength of weld joint in comparison to the tools with circular pins. However, the impacts of pin profile on the peak temperature, tool torque and traverse

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Behavior of diatomaceous soil in lacustrine deposits of Bogotá, Colombia

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018
This work presents a study on the behaviors of diatomaceous soils. Although studies are rarely reported on these soils, they have been identified in Mexico City, the Sea of Japan, the northeast coast of Australia, the equatorial Pacific, and the ...

Observation of a Dislocation Related Interfacial Friction Mechanism in Mobile Solid $^4$He

open access: yes, 2012
We report a study of the temperature and stress dependence of the friction associated with a relative motion of two masses of solid $^4$He in contact. The situation where "two masses" coupled only by friction exists emerges spontaneously during a disordering of a single crystal contained inside a annular sample space of torsional oscillator (TO).

Multiphysics models for friction stir welding simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Purpose: The Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process comprises of several highly coupled (and non-linear) physical phenomena: large plastic deformation, material flow transportation, mechanical stirring of the tool, tool-workpiece surface interaction ...
