Diagenetic isotope exchange in biocalcites for paleoclimate reconstruction
Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro
The oxygen isotope compositions of fossil biocalcites, such as foraminifera, bivalves, brachiopods, and belemnites have allowed for reconstructions of sea surface and deep ocean temperatures throughout the Phanerozoic and constitute the most important reco ...
EPFL2024Fractal analysis in the quantification of medical imaging associated with multiple sclerosis pathology
Backgrounds: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inveterate phlogistic situation characterized by focal and vaguely diffusive de-myelination and neurodegeneration, in the sphere of central nervous system (CNS). The brain's chronic inflammatory reaction includes ...
IMR PRESS2022FVPM numerical simulation of the effect of particle shape and elasticity on impact erosion
François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Sebastián Camilo Leguizamón Sarmiento, Siamak Alimirzazadeh
The erosion of hydraulic machines by solid particle impacts is a widespread problem that leads to outage for expensive repairs, efficiency reduction, and cavitation enhancement. Numerical simulations can be used to study the phenomenon, provided they featu ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2019Erosion mechanisms during abrasive waterjet machining: Model microstructures and single particle experiments
Stefano Mischler, Johann Michler
The erosion mechanisms during abrasive waterjet (AWJ) machining have been examined for a variety of materials. However, no systematic study has considered the effect of the microstructure property relationship on the erosion mechanisms in metals. In this w ...
Elsevier Science Sa2017Hydrodynamics of mountain-river confluences and its relationship to sediment transport
Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña
Mountain confluences are characterized by narrow and steep tributaries that provide important sediment load to the confluence, whereas themain channel supplies the dominant flow discharge. This results in a marked bed discordance between the tributary and ...
American Geophysical Union2017Riprap Protection of Vertical-Wall and Spill-Through Bridge Abutments
Anton Schleiss, António Heleno Cardoso
Scour around bridge abutments frequently leads to the collapse of bridge superstructures. Consequently, scour countermeasures are usually designed and installed by river engineers, riprap matting being the most widespread solution. The associated design cr ...
2012Euler- Euler coupling two phase simulation of seepage through soils in artesian flow conditions
This paper presents the results of a two phase Euler-Euler simulation of seepage flow through granular media for upward flow conditions in soils. The simulation first deals with the fluidization process in a stable granular soil. The first fluidization in ...
