Time-sensitivity mechanism of rock stress memory properties under tensile stress

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2020
In deep underground engineering, understanding of time-related stress memory properties is critical to evaluate the in situ stress conditions of a rock mass. In this study, the time-sensitivity mechanism of the rock stress memory properties under tensile

Body mass and sex estimation from lower carnassial tooth morphometry in the endangered Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus): An ecomorphological analysis of sexual size dimorphism

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is an endangered subspecies characterized by highly fragmented populations and increasing human–carnivore conflict across the Iberian Peninsula. Although body mass strongly influences predator–prey dynamics and ecological performance, quantitative assessments of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and body mass

Bioerosion traces in bones reveal an increase in ethological diversity in the insect exploitation of carcasses in the late Triassic

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents the first detailed description of bioerosion traces produced by insects in bones from the Santa Cruz Sequence (early Carnian, Santa Maria Supersequence, Brazil). An array of traces is reported, consisting of notches, a tube, trails of grooves attributed to the ichnotaxon Osteocallis mandibulus and ornamented depressions ...

Numerical study of AE and DRA methods in sandstone and granite in orthogonal loading directions

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2012
The directional dependency of the acoustic emission (AE) and deformation rate analysis (DRA) methods was analyzed, based on the contact bond model in the two-dimensional particle flow code (PFC2D) in two types of rocks, the coarse-grained sandstone and ...

Multivariate Analysis of Hematological Stress Biomarkers and Welfare Domains in Organic and Intensive Pig Farming in Italy: A Pilot Study

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Intensive or organic farming systems may expose pigs to management or environmental challenges. Our preliminary results concluded that organic farming might enhance adaptive immune function, showing that improvements in welfare can translate into measurable immunological benefits, based on the correlation between welfare assessment and physiological ...
