Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Compressive Strength Prediction Model of High Strength Concrete by Destructive and Nondestructive Technique [PDF]
Concrete’s compressive strength can be tested in a laboratory before construction begins. Since concrete is a natural material and cannot be destroyed, it is not possible to determine its compressive strength through destructive testing.

Comparatively Study of Non-Destructive test with different methods in various curing days [PDF]
In non-destructive testing, materials, components, or assemblies are inspected, tested, or evaluated without being destroyed. In nondestructive testing, materials, components, and assemblies are evaluated for quality and integrity without damaging them ...
