Polymict melt‐bearing breccia dikes in the Morokweng impact structure formed by slip‐induced mechanical mixing of pseudotachylite and cataclasite along large‐displacement impact faults

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2013
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)

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
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

Finite element simulation study on vertical bearing characteristics of single pile with ram-compacted bearing sphere.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
The pile with ram-compacted bearing sphere (PRBS)is a kind of special-shaped pile, the calculation formula of single pile bearing capacity stipulated in Chinese Standards JGJ/T 135-2018 is relatively simple, and the factors considered are not ...

Staging the Semahs: Performing Aleviness in Turkey and Europe

open access: yesStudies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The semah, a genre of music and movement practices imbued with values of gender, class, age and ethical egalitarianism, lies at the core of the Alevis' ayn‐i cem rituals. Since the 1970s, processes of urbanisation, migration, folklore production and heritage‐making have facilitated the circulation of semah beyond ritual contexts, particularly ...

Resolving a debate over social freedom

open access: yesThe Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
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 ...

Research on the Time-Dependent Behavior of Uplift Piles in Structured Clay Foundations in Zhanjiang Formation

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The structural clay of the Zhanjiang Formation exhibits significant thixotropy, and there are considerable differences in the ultimate bearing capacity of pulled-out piles under different resting times.

Application of discontinuity layout optimization to plane plasticity problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
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

open access: yes, 2008
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.
