Hybrid Event Beds Generated By Local Substrate Delamination On A Confined-Basin Floor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The outer parts of deep-water fans, and the basin plains into which they pass, are often described as areas where erosion is negligible and turbidite systems have net aggradation. Nevertheless sedimentological and stratigraphic analysis of outer fan lobe

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Mechanism and Protective Measures of Local Scouring of Bridge Piers

open access: yesFrontiers in Science and Engineering, 2022
With the rapid development of China's bridge cause, more and more Bridges are being built across the country, and the protection of bridge piers has become more and more important. Based on the local erosion mechanism of bridge pier, this paper summarizes and analyzes the influencing factors of local erosion and the evolution process of erosion pit ...

Far Field Deposition Of Scoured Regolith Resulting From Lunar Landings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
As a lunar lander approaches a dusty surface, the plume from the descent engine impinges on the ground, entraining loose regolith into a high velocity dust spray.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Suction Removal of Cohesionless Sediment

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The theoretical analysis of sediment scour in vertical direction caused by a vertical suction inlet is presented here. The predictive formulas of the critical inlet height of particle initial motion and scour depth in equilibrium state are expressed as ...

Decoding Emotional Signatures of Ethical Ads: An Analysis of Actor‐Viewer Synchrony

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine whether ethical advertisements differ from conventional ads in their on‐screen emotional signatures and whether those signatures transfer to actor‐viewer synchrony. Study 1 analyses 138 professionally produced YouTube ads using Automated Facial Expression Recognition (AFER) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to quantify actor ...

Enhanced hydrosuction performance for cohesive sediment removal in low-head reservoirs

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2017
Deposited sediment removal or dredging is generally required in many hydro-system projects. Siphon dredging or hydrosuction bears many advantages including low energy consumption, minor turbidity generation and ability of localized dredging. A new device

Dynamic Behavior of Bed Material around Bridge Pier under Abrupt Change of Water Pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Major failure of structures usually occurs during flood flows due to scourin, sinking and sliding. These types of failure are considered to be in close relation to the dynamic behavior of bed material around the structures.

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.
