The Influence of Grain Crushing and Pore Collapse on the Formation of Faults
Abstract During an earthquake, slip occurs in a localized shear zone that features a heavily granulated fault core that can be characterized as a shear band. We study the formation of this fault core in a granular rock such as sandstone by developing a model of crushable granular media within the framework of Breakage Mechanics. This model accounts for

Optimization of the critical overlap length of hudraulic distributors regarding cavitation inception
The present paper is focused on the optimization of the overlap length in various types of distributors in hydraulic systems. It has been shown that this length has a strong influence on cavitation in rotating distributors, so its optimization would be ...

A Computationally Efficient Dynamic Grid Motion Approach for Arbitrary Lagrange–Euler Simulations
The present article addresses the topic of grid motion computation in Arbitrary Lagrange–Euler (ALE) simulations, where a fluid mesh must be updated to follow the displacements of Lagrangian boundaries.

Résumé Cet article s'intéresse aux multiples usages et entendements des processus de territorialisation, de déterritorialisation et de reterritorialisation en géographie. Examinant un vaste corpus d'articles francophones et anglophones, il cherche à dégager les différentes approches et sous‐approches de ces notions par les géographes, ce afin d ...

A Numerical Model of Yield Stress Fluid Dynamics in a Mixing Vessel
A numerical study is conducted on the behaviour of yield stress fluids in a mixing vessel equipped with anchor agitator in laminar regime. It is shown that extending a standard Carreau model of shear thinning fluid is a suitable practice.

Polyethylene glycol‐23 glyceryl distearate (GDS‐23) forms niosomes and penetrates the skin. Our results suggest that the pharmacological effects following dermal penetration of GDS‐23 may enhance skin homeostasis by improving barrier function and moisture retention.

Small-width wall-attached Coandǎ jets for flow control
The flow dynamics of small-width wall-attached jets generated by a Coand-effect nozzle is investigated by unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes simulations. The data are validated by comparison with hot-wire velocity measurements performed on the same
