Selected Indices to Identify Water-Stress-Tolerant Tropical Forage Grasses
Plants, 2022 Periods of soil water stress have been recurrent in the Cerrado region and have become a growing concern for Brazilian tropical pasture areas. Thus, the search for forage grasses more tolerant to water stress has intensified recently in order to promote ...

The present-day stress field in Egypt
Annals of Geophysics, 2001 The present-day stress field has been investigated by the analysis of the directions of maximum horizontal stress (ó 1 ) inferred from earthquake focal mechanisms and borehole breakouts in Egypt.

A rate- and state-dependent ductile flow law of polycrystalline halite under large shear strain and implications for transition to brittle deformation [PDF]
, 2010 We have conducted double-shear biaxial deformation experiments in layers of NaCl within its fully-plastic (FP) regime up to large shear strains (γ < 50) with velocity steps.

NW Australian intraplate seismicity and stress regime [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2009 The interrelations between stress orientation, regional deformation, and seismic activity in the context of intraplate seismicity continue to pose difficult questions. Stress models of the Australian continent are largely based on nonseismic information.

Polymer stress growth in viscoelastic fluids in oscillating extensional flows with applications to micro-organism locomotion [PDF]
, 2019 Simulations of undulatory swimming in viscoelastic fluids with large amplitude gaits show concentration of polymer elastic stress at the tips of the swimmers.We use a series of related theoretical investigations to probe the origin of these concentrated ...
