Strength and deformation properties of frozen sand under a true triaxial stress condition
In recent years, the mechanical properties of frozen soils under complex stress states have attracted significant attention; however, limited by the test apparatus, true triaxial tests on frozen soils have rarely been conducted. To study the strength and

Weak lensing by triaxial galaxy clusters [PDF]
Weak gravitational lensing studies of galaxy clusters often assume a spherical cluster model to simplify the analysis, but some recent studies have suggested this simplifying assumption may result in large biases in estimated cluster masses and ...

Estimating Black Hole Masses in Triaxial Galaxies [PDF]
Most of the super massive black hole mass estimates based on stellar kinematics use the assumption that galaxies are axisymmetric oblate spheroids or spherical.

New method for true-triaxial rock testing [PDF]
Two new and related true-triaxial apparatus are described that make use of conventional triaxial pressure vessels in combination with specially configured, high-pressure hydraulic jacks inside these vessels. The development combines advantages not found in existing facilities, including a compact design, pore-pressure and flow-through capabilities, the

Aeolian Sand Test with True Triaxial Stress Path Achieved by Pseudo-Triaxial Apparatus
Aeolian sand is a special roadbed filler, but its three-dimensional mechanical properties are rarely studied. To obtain the characteristic of its deformation, strength on the deviatoric plane, and failure in three dimensions, a series of triaxial drained tests on aeolian sand in the Tengger Desert, under the condition of the constant average principal ...

The Spin-Orbit Evolution of GJ 667C System: The Effect of Composition and Other Planet's Perturbations [PDF]
Potentially habitable planets within the habitable zone of M-dwarfs are affected by tidal interaction. We studied the tidal evolution in GJ 667C using a numerical code we call TIDEV.

Spectral Statistics of the Triaxial Rigid Rotator: Semiclassical Origin of their Pathological Behavior [PDF]
In this paper we investigate the local and global spectral properties of the triaxial rigid rotator. We demonstrate that, for a fixed value of the total angular momentum, the energy spectrum can be divided into two sets of energy levels, whose classical ...
