Geodetic observations are affected by the disturbing potential of the luni-solar tide. Among those observations, the value of g obtained from gravimetric survey needs correction by the gravimetric factor. This correction ...

The short-range diffusion phenomenon (Snoek Effect) was investigated by mechanical spectroscopy measurements between 300 K and 650 K, in a polycrystalline niobium sample, containing oxygen and nitrogen, using a torsion ...

Crustal rocks undergo repeated cycles of stress over time. In complex tectonic environments where stresses may evolve both spatially and temporally, such as volcanoes or active fault zones, these rocks may experience not ...

Both numerical simulation and hardness measurements were used to determine the mechanical and microstructural behavior of AZ31 bulk samples when submitted to the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) technique. Billets of ...

The short-range diffusion phenomenon (Snoek Effect) was investigated by mechanical spectroscopy measurements between 300 K and 650 K, in a polycrystalline niobium sample, containing oxygen and nitrogen, using a torsion ...

In many cases, geological formations are composed of layers of dissimilar properties whose thicknesses are small compared to the wavelength of the seismic signal, as for instance, a sandstone formation that has intra-reservoir ...

Observational data of asteroids can be explained by considering them as an agglomerate of granular material. Understanding the mechanical properties of these objects is relevant for many scientific reasons: space missions ...
