To break or not to break: The role of secondary mineralisation on joint reactivation in sandstone

Alexandra Roma Larisa Kushnir, Michael Heap

Discontinuities, including fractures and joint sets, modify the fluid transport properties and strength of rock masses. While open fractures and joints increase rock mass permeability and decrease rock mass strength, fluid flow within these structures can ...

Enrichment of immobile elements in synmagmatic fractures

Alexandra Roma Larisa Kushnir, Michael Heap

Useful minerals containing rare Earth elements (REE) and metals are sourced from magma bodies, but exactly how these elements initially leave the magma is not well known. Here we present textural and chemical analyses of mineral-filled fracture bands withi ...

Characterization of bone progenitor cells after GFP lentivirus transfection

Axelle Deirdre Eve Justafré, Tanja Cloé Hausherr

Several treatments have been developed for treating bone fractures as they are very common events. Amongst other new strategies, synthetic bone substitutes present a very high potential therapy because they lower the risk of infection and rejection. Moreov ...

Analysis of TBM tunnelling performance in faulted and highly fractured rocks

Erika Paltrinieri

The thesis focuses on the study of the performance of TBMs in highly jointed and faulted rocks. Despite the great production rates recorded in favourable ground conditions, the TBM advance can be significantly slowed down in limiting geological situations ...
