Squeaking Sand versus Musical Sand [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1890
ALLOW me to use your columns to thank Mr. Henry C. Hyndman for the reference in NATURE of October 2 (vol. xlii. p. 554) to a locality of sonorous sand in the interior of South Africa. Its occurrence in the interior is new to me, though it has been reported from the west coast at Liberia, and at Cape Ledo, from which latter place my friend, Mr.

Sand and silty-sand soil stabilization using bacterial enzyme–induced calcite precipitation (BEICP)

open access: yesCanadian geotechnical journal (Print), 2019
This paper examines the bio-derived stabilization of sand-only or sand-plus-silt soils using an extracted bacterial enzyme application to achieve induced calcite precipitation (ICP).

Evolution of secondary cellular circulation flow above submarine bedforms imaged by remote sensing techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Normalized radar cross section (NRCS) modulation and acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) measurements above submarine sand ribbons and sand waves are presented. The two study areas are located in the Southern Bight of the North Sea at the Birkenfels

Shaping of Biohybrid Functional Living Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a strategy for shaping living mycelium into functional materials by directing its natural growth. Nanoparticles armor hyphae, micron‐scale particles entangle within the network, and printed hydrogel architectures steer expansion, creating defined geometries.

The Propensity to Consume Income from Different Sources and Implications for Saving: An Application to Norwegian Farm Households [PDF]

open access: yes
Traditionally, farm households have relatively high saving and low marginal propensity to consume (MPC). In the last decades, this seems to have changed.

One-dimensional compression of a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper presents the results of a series of dry and wet one-dimenional compression tests on a calcareous sand from the Persian Gulf. Calcareous grains crush more easily compared to silica grains, a fact that is mainly attributed to their angular shape

Mechanochromism of Glassy Polymers Enabled by a Loop‐Forming Supramolecular Mechanophore

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The supramolecular mechanophore LOOP is covalently introduced into glassy polymers, capable of reporting force‐induced pre‐failure damage and local fracture events in polymer glasses. Under different mechanical deformation modes, including grinding, tensile stretching, and scratching, LOOP probes irreversible events in polymer glasses through a ...

Perspectives on conservation grazing: The need for monitoring and communication

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence
Conservation grazing is widely used to manage open ecosystems, but inconsistent definitions and inadequate reporting of grazing patterns hinder effective communication among researchers, practitioners and policymakers, limiting the understanding and ...

Using a sand wave model for optimal monitoring of navigation depth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the Euro Channel to Rotterdam Harbor, sand waves reduce the navigable depth to an unacceptable level. To avoid the risk of grounding, the navigation depth is monitored and sand waves that reduce the navigation depth unacceptably are dredged. After the
