Strain Localization: Analog Modeling and Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility
The majority of the strain in Earth crust and upper mantle is localized to the high strain zones developed at ductile‐to‐brittle condition at kilometer‐to‐micrometer scale.

Contrasting stress fields on correlating margins of the South Atlantic [PDF]
The “passiveness” of passive continental margins across the globe is currently under debate since several studies have shown that these margins may experience a variety of stress states and undergo significant vertical movement post-breakup.

Permeability evolution during progressive development of deformation bands in porous sandstones [PDF]
[1] Triaxial deformation experiments were carried out on large (0.1 m) diameter cores of a porous sandstone in order to investigate the evolution of bulk sample permeability as a function of axial strain and effective confining pressure.

Application of Moving Kriging Shape Functions on Plate Problems
The Moving Kriging (MK) interpolation was recently proposed as a superior substitution of the Moving Least Square (MLS) approximation in the construction of shape functions for the Element-Free Galerkin Method (EFGM).

Soil classification in a seismically active environment based on join analysis of seismic parameters [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Soil or rock properties where buildings are situated play an important role in the ground shaking caused by an earthquake. The highly populated Banda Aceh city in the northernmost Sumatra is flanked by two active faults, the ...
