Use of elastic stability analysis to explain the stress-dependent nature of soil strength [PDF]
, 2015 The peak and critical state strengths of sands are linearly related to the stress level, just as the frictional resistance to sliding along an interface is related to the normal force. The analogy with frictional sliding has led to the use of a ‘friction

'Calving laws', 'sliding laws' and the stability of tidewater glaciers [PDF]
, 2007 A new calving criterion is introduced, which predicts calving where the depth of surface crevasses equals ice height above sea level. Crevasse depth is calculated from strain rates, and terminus position and calving rate are therefore functions of ice ...

Facilitatory actions of guanidine on synaptic transmission in mammalian brain slices [PDF]
, 1979 Guanidine administration may be beneficial in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and related diseases; however, the actions of guanidine on the mammalian central nervous system have not been investigated.

Contact resistance at graphene/MoS2 lateral heterostructures [PDF]
Applied Physics Letters, 2019 The contact resistance at two-dimensional graphene/MoS2 lateral heterojunctions is theoretically studied, using first-principles simulations based on density functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function method. The computed contact resistance lies in the range of 102 to 104 Ω μm, depending on the contact edge symmetry (armchair or zigzag ...

Sleeper end resistance of ballasted railway tracks [PDF]
, 2014 This paper describes model tests used to investigate how ballast shoulder width and height contribute to a railway sleeper’s resistance to lateral movement for a range of shoulder widths and heights.
