Astex microgravity experiment: simulated asteroid regoliths [PDF]

, 2009
AstEx is a microgravity experiment selected to fly on ESA's 51st Microgravity Research Campaign in November 2009. The experiment will investigate the dynamics of regolith on asteroid surfaces. Despite their very low surface gravities, asteroids exhibit a

Mountain building in Taiwan: A thermokinematic model [PDF]

, 2007
The Taiwan mountain belt is classically viewed as a case example of a critical wedge growing essentially by frontal accretion and therefore submitted to distributed shortening.

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

Influence of hydrodynamic processes on the fate of sedimentary organic matter on continental margins [PDF]

, 2018
Understanding the effects of hydrodynamic forcing on organic matter (OM) composition is important for assessment of organic carbon (OC) burial in marginal seas on regional and global scales.

Contributions of arid climate and hydrothermal fluid flow on sedimentation in saline‐alkaline lakes: Insight from the Ibar intramontane basin (Southern Serbia)

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The article demonstrates that brine was central for the supply of Ca and B to the studied saline lake. The ion transport occurred probably by thermal springs, while contributions from surface waters cannot be excluded. However, the saturation and syndepositional precipitation of Ca borates were initiated by an arid climate through evaporation, while ...

Scale-dependent influence of pre-existing basement shear zones on rift faulting : a case study from NE Brazil [PDF]

, 2013
Rifting of continental crust initiates faults that are commonly influenced by pre-existing structures. We document newly identified faults cutting Precambrian units in the interior of the NE Brazilian margin to assess the effects of structural ...

Effects of elevated ground temperatures on properties of cement grouts for deep rock grouting

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
When the temperature is up to 35°C, significant improvement in rheological parameters, acceleration of grout setting, and an increase in the rheological time dependence of thick cement grout can occur, but there may be a slight effect on the initial grout flowability and the nature of shear thinning.

Utilizing seismic techniques and dynamic field tests for soil dynamic response prediction in clay soils

Magazine of Civil Engineering
When evaluating the dynamic response of soil, shear modulus is an essential parameter to consider. In most cases, the shear modulus is estimated using the shear wave velocity (Vs) of the soil as observed in field geophysical testing.

The Rwenzori Mountains, a Paleoproterzoic crustal shear belt crossing the Albertine rift system [PDF]

, 2015
This contribution discusses the development of the Paleoproterozoic Buganda-Toro belt in the Rwenzori mountains and its influence on the western part of the East African Rift System in Uganda.
