Temporal dynamics of charge buildup in cryo-electron microscopy [PDF]
It is well known that insulating samples can accumulate electric charges from exposure to an electron beam. How the accumulation of charge affects imaging parameters and sample stability in transmission electron microscopy is poorly understood.

Study on ice condensation characteristics and deformation laws of two-dimensional orthopermafrost [PDF]
With the further development of the permafrost area in the country, the research on geotechnical engineering is becoming more and more in-depth at this stage.

We investigated the accuracy and range of validity of the perturbative model for the two-point (2PCF) and three-point (3PCF) correlation functions in real space in view of the forthcoming analysis of the Euclid mission spectroscopic sample.

Optical Measurements of Water Lenses in Ice [PDF]
AbstractThe dihedral angle of water at a grain boundary in ice is found, by measuring the optical focal length of lenticular water inclusions, to be 33.6 ± 0.7°. The new result leads to only minor revision of published experimental values of specific surface free energies in the ice–water system (Ketcham and Hobbs, 1969).

An empirical firn-densification model comprising ice lenses [PDF]
AbstractIn the past, several empirical firn-densification models have been developed fitted to measured density–depth profiles from Greenland and Antarctica. These models do not specifically deal with refreezing of meltwater in the firn. Ice lenses are usually indirectly taken into account by choosing a suitable value of the surface snow density.

ICE-COLA: fast simulations for weak lensing observables [PDF]
Approximate methods to full N-body simulations provide a fast and accurate solution to the development of mock catalogues for the modeling of galaxy clustering observables. In this paper we extend ICE-COLA (Izard et al. 2016), based on an optimized implementation of the approximate COLA method, to produce weak lensing maps and halo catalogues in the ...

Freezing colloidal suspensions: periodic ice lenses and compaction [PDF]
AbstractRecent directional solidification experiments with aqueous suspensions of alumina particles (Anderson & Worster, Langmuir, vol. 28 (48), 2012, pp. 16512–16523) motivate a model for freezing colloidal suspensions that builds upon a theoretical framework developed by Rempel et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 498, 2004, pp.

Numerical modelling of distinct ice lenses in frost heave
Abstract Frost heave happens when three conditions coincide: the temperature is below the normal freezing point of bulk water, the sub-cooled water is connected to a water reservoir, and the mechanical conditions of the soil allows the ice lens to grow. Upon further penetration of the freezing front, the relative permeability of the soil

Ice Lenses May Cause Many Arctic Landslides
When permafrost thaw reaches concentrations of ice underneath the surface, it may trigger local soil instability.

Formation of ice lenses and frost heave [PDF]
I examine the morphology of ice growth in porous media. Intermolecular forces cause premelted fluid to migrate and supply segregated ice growth (e.g., lenses) and frost heave. I account for the net effect of these microscopic interactions in a homogenized model formulated in terms of fundamental physical properties and characteristics of the porous ...
