Experimental study of strain accumulation of silica sand in a cyclic triaxial test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The experimental and phenomenological investigation of the elasto-plastic long-term behaviour of soils under dynamic loading is important for the development of risk analysis tools and numerical accumulation models for settlement prediction.

Development of a Computer Vision-Based Three-Dimensional Reconstruction Method for Volume-Change Measurement of Unsaturated Soils during Triaxial Testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Problems associated with unsaturated soils are ubiquitous in the U.S., where expansive and collapsible soils are some of the most widely distributed and costly geologic hazards.

A Comparison of the Intrinsic Shapes of Two Different Types of Dwarf Galaxies: Blues Compact Dwarfs and Dwarf Ellipticals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We measure the apparent shapes for a sample of 62 blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCDs), and compare them with the apparent shapes for a sample of 80 dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs). The BCDs are flatter, on average, than the dEs, but the difference is only
