The influence of water-saturation on the strength of volcanic rocks and the stability of lava domes
Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap
The rocks forming a volcanic edifice or dome are typically saturated or partially-saturated with water. However, most experiments aimed at better understanding the mechanical behaviour of volcanic rocks have been performed on dry samples, and therefore mos ...
2023A Depth-Averaged Material Point Method for Shallow Landslides: Applications to Snow Slab Avalanche Release
Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Lars Kristoffer Uhlen Blatny, Bertil Trottet, Denis Aloyse Joseph Steffen, Louis Marie Cédric Guillet
Shallow landslides pose a significant threat to people and infrastructure. Despite significant progress in the understanding of such phenomena, the evaluation of the size of the landslide release zone, a crucial input for risk assessment, still remains a c ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2023Development of new volcano-shaped microelectrodes for single cell electrochemistry, electrophysiology and impedance studies.
Micro- nano-electrodes have demonstrated superior performances in measuring attenuated intracellular action potentials from electrogenic cell cultures compared to traditional multi-electrode arrays. Yet, the understanding of the critical electrode features ...
EPFL2023Evidence of extensive lunar crust formation in impact melt sheets 4,330 Myr ago
Accurately constraining the formation and evolution of the lunar magnesian suite is key to understanding the earliest periods of magmatic crustal building that followed accretion and primordial differentiation of the Moon. However, the origin and evolution ...
2020Pattern formation in thin liquid films: from coating-flow instabilities to microfluidic droplets
Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra
Nature and technical applications abound with thin viscous flows, ranging from the lava flow on volcanoes to the lubricating layer around confined bubbles in the microchannels of Lab-on-a-Chip devices. Countless are the examples where coating flows arise i ...
EPFL2018Multilevel and Local Timestepping Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Magma Dynamics
Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method is presented for numerical modeling of melt migration in a chemically reactive and viscously deforming upwelling mantle column. DG methods for both advection and elliptic equations provide a robust and efficient solution ...
Springer2015A systematic mapping procedure based on the Modified Gaussian Model to characterize magmatic units from olivine/pyroxenes mixtures: Application to the Syrtis Major volcanic shield on Mars
Harold Gabriel Eugène Justin Clenet
Clenet et al. (2011) have developed an adapted version of the Modified Gaussian Model (MGM). The improvements allow the characterization of spectra of olivine-pyroxene(s) mixtures, addressing both modal composition and individual minerals chemical composit ...
Amer Geophysical Union2013A 70 ka record of explosive eruptions from the TALDICE ice core (Talos Dome, East Antarctic plateau)
The European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica Dome ice core from Dome C (EDC) has allowed for the reconstruction of atmospheric CO2 concentrations for the last 800,000-years. Here we revisit the oldest part of the EDC CO2 record using different air ext ...
