Abstract A core drilled through shocked and faulted Archean granitoid gneisses and dolerites in the eroded peak ring of the 70–80 km diameter Morokweng impact structure intersects multiple centimeter‐ to meter‐wide clastic‐matrix breccias containing a polymict clast population of lithic and mineral clasts and altered, millimeter‐ to centimeter ‐size ...

Experimental And Numerical Investigations On Uplift Behaviour Of Plate Anchors In Cohesionless Soil [PDF]
In this study, series of small scale laboratory pull-out tests were conducted on anchors embedded in sand. Model tests were performed in a test box. The effects of embedment ratioof anchor plates and relative density of sand on uplift capacity behaviour ...

Why Paternalism Is Wrong (When It Is Wrong)
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel reinterpretation of the familiar, if inchoate, thought that paternalism offends against an ideal of personal sovereignty. The central idea is that (competent) persons have a particular kind of normative power. Just as each of us has the right to control how others are permitted to use our bodies or property, we each

Resolving a debate over social freedom
Abstract When I am unable to drive due to a road blockade, there seems to be a morally relevant difference between a case in which the road is blocked by workers and a case in which the road is blocked by a landslide. Many political philosophers tried to capture this pretheoretical judgment at a more abstract level through the formulation of a concept ...

Application of discontinuity layout optimization to plane plasticity problems [PDF]
A new and potentially widely applicable numerical analysis procedure for continuum mechanics problems is described. The procedure is used here to determine the critical layout of discontinuities and associated upper-bound limit load for plane plasticity ...

Macroelement modeling of shallow foundations
The paper presents a new macroelement model for shallow foundations. The model is defined through a non-linear constitutive law written in terms of some generalized force and displacement parameters.
