Preliminary results for the extraction and measurement of cosmogenic in situ C-14 from quartz [PDF]
Radiocarbon is produced within minerals at the earth's surface (in situ production) by a number of spallation reactions. Its relatively short half-life of 5730 yr provides us with a unique cosmogenic nuclide tool for the measurement of rapid erosion ...

Pseudo-two-girdles c-axis fabric patterns in a quartz-feldspar mylonite (Costabona granodiorite, Canigo massif) [PDF]
An example of the relationship that exist between the preferred crystaliografic orientation of quartz grains and the attitude of the mylonite foliation of quartz-feldspar mylonites is described. These rocks are the result of the inhomogeneous deformation

Modelling the reduction of quartz in a quartz–carbon pellet
AbstractTraditional refining of silicon generates carbon dioxide emissions that are released into the atmosphere. An alternative process under experimental exploration uses quartz particles coated in a layer of porous carbon as the raw material, instead of lumps of quartz and carbon.

Geometry-controlled phase transition in vibrated granular media
We report experiments on the dynamics of vibrated particles constrained in a two-dimensional vertical container, motivated by the following question: how to get the most out of a given external vibration to maximize internal disorder (e.g.

Reconfigurable Supply Chain Selection: Literature Review, Research Roadmap and New Trends
The COVID-19 pandemic revealed weaknesses in the global supply chain management. With stock-outs, transportation problems and the bullwhip effect caused by ever-changing demand, it is necessary for decision-makers to review their supply chain ...

Note on the importance of hydrocarbon fill for reservoir quality prediction in sandstones [PDF]
Oil emplacement retarded the rate of quartz cementation in the Brae Formation deep-water sandstone reservoirs of the Miller and Kingfisher fields (United Kingdom North Sea), thus preserving porosity despite the rocks' being buried to depths of 4 km and ...
