Cap rock efficiency of geothermal systems in fold-and-thrust belts: Evidence from paleo-thermal and structural analyses in Rosario de La Frontera geothermal area (NW Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cap rock characterization of geothermal systems is often neglected despite fracturing may reduce its efficiency and favours fluid migration. We investigated the siliciclastic cap rock of Rosario de La Frontera geothermal system (NW Argentina) in order to

A Review on MXene Terminations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Surface terminations play a decisive role in determining the properties of MXenes. Their coordination, composition and stoichiometry can be tuned both during synthesis and through post synthesis methods to tailor MXenes for optimum performance in applications. This review explores the present understanding of surface terminations.

Chlorine in sedimentary rocks

open access: yesGEOCHEMICAL JOURNAL, 1967
Concentrations of total, soluble and insoluble Cl were determined for various sedimentary rocks from differing localities and ages with a distillation method examined by the authors. Rock samples were investigated with an X-ray diffractometer and a microscope.

Growth and form of the mound in Gale Crater, Mars: Slope wind enhanced erosion and transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ancient sediments provide archives of climate and habitability on Mars. Gale Crater, the landing site for the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), hosts a 5-km-high sedimentary mound (Mount Sharp/Aeolis Mons). Hypotheses for mound formation include evaporitic,

A Scalable, Durable, Fire‐Safe All‐Day Passive Radiative Cooling Coating for Sustainable Buildings

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a scalable, durable coating that combines a fire‑retardant copolymer adhesive, hollow glass microspheres, and boron oxide to achieve passive radiative cooling with over 94% solar reflectance and >95% mid‑infrared emissivity. The coating maintains performance after UV and rain exposure and exhibits UL‑94 V‑0 fire resistance, enabling ...

Deciphering the Interplay Between Wetting and Chemo‐Mechanical Fracture in Lithium‐Ion Battery Cathode Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The fundamental intricate couplings between electrolyte wetting and fracture evolution are investigated in large single‐crystal V2O5 samples using both experimental techniques and simulations. Both approaches reveal consistent fracture patterns and lithium distribution concentration maps influenced by the wetting mechanism.

Classification of Red-Bed Rock Mass Structures and Slope Failure Modes in South China

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Red beds are Meso−Cenozoic continental sedimentary strata that are mainly composed of gravel stone, sandstone, siltstone, mudstone, and shale and occasionally have interlayers of limestone, halite, and gypsum.

Experimental Investigation into the Influences of Weathering on the Mechanical Properties of Sedimentary Rocks

open access: yesGeofluids, 2020
The time-dependent behaviors of the sedimentary rocks which refer to the altering of the mechanical and deformable properties of rock elements in the long-term period are of increasing importance in the investigation of the failure mechanism of the rock ...
