Insights Into Magma Chamber Processes From the Relationship Between Fabric and Grain Shape in Troctolitic Cumulates

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The strength of foliations defined by shape preferred orientation of plagioclase in troctolitic cumulates from the Layered Series of the Skaergaard intrusion, and the Rum Eastern Layered Intrusion, increases as the grains become more tabular, due either ...

Dyke Architecture, Mineral Layering, and Magmatic Convection; New Perspectives From the Younger Giant Dyke Complex, S Greenland

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Igneous sheet intrusions are a fundamental component of volcano plumbing systems. Identifying how sheet intrusion emplacement and geometry controls later magmatic processes is critical to understanding the distribution of volcanic eruptions and magma ...

Thermosolutal natural convection across an inclined square enclosure partially filled with a porous medium

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2021
The present study is a numerical inspection of the natural convection with double diffusion in a tilted square cavity filled with a vertical bi-layered composed porous and an adjacent fluid.

Semiconvection: numerical simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A grid of numerical simulations of double-diffusive convection is presented for the astrophysical case where viscosity (Prandtl number Pr) and solute diffusivity (Lewis number Le) are much smaller than the thermal diffusivity.

Numerical simulation on heat transfer of VVER core cather

open access: yesHe jishu, 2023
BackgroundThe core corium may melt through the reactor pressure vessel wall then lead to the failure of the second barrier during a serious accident. Core catcher can collect and cool the corium and prevent the development of severe accident.PurposeThis ...

DQ white-dwarf stars with low C abundance: Possible progenitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The present paper focuses on the evolution of hydrogen-deficient white dwarfs with the aim of exploring the consequences of different initial envelope structures on the carbon abundances expected in helium-rich, carbon-contaminated DQ white dwarfs.

Layer formation in sedimentary fingering convection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017
When particles settle through a stable temperature or salinity gradient they can drive an instability known as sedimentary fingering convection. This phenomenon is thought to occur beneath sediment-rich river plumes in lakes and oceans, in the context of marine snow where decaying organic materials serve as the suspended particles or in the atmosphere ...

Effect of layered heterogeneity of a porous medium on density-driven natural convection

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
In carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS), the shift to the dissolution trapping of CO2 in brine from the capillary trapping and physical trapping by caprock depends on the mass transfer associated with density-driven natural convection at a reservoir ...

New Theory of the Earth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
New Theory of the Earth is an interdisciplinary advanced textbook on all aspects of the interior of the Earth and its origin, composition, and evolution: geophysics, geochemistry, dynamics, convection, mineralogy, volcanism, energetics and thermal ...

Convective instabilities in two liquid layers

open access: yesJournal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2007
We perform linear stability calculations for horizontal fluid bilayers, taking into account both buoyancy effects and thermocapillary effects in the presence of a vertical temperature gradient. To help understand the mechanisms driving the instability, we have performed both long-wavelength and short-wavelength analyses.
