Zhou Wenjie Zhou, a postdoctoral scholar in Daraio’s lab, details the procedure: “We started with compression, compressing the objects a bit harder each time. Then we tried a simple shear, a lateral ...

"In shock compression, the thermal self-emission from the heated sample is typically captured ... advance the understanding of our planet's inner structure and its thermal history. "Seismological data ...

"We started with compression," Zhou explains, "compressing the objects a bit harder each time. Then we tried a simple shear, a lateral force, like what you would apply if you were trying to tear the ...

These results agree with values previously published in the literature and unequivocally demonstrate how the influence of penetration rate can impact the measured undrained shear strength for T-bar ...

Vibration and thermal signatures are crucial toward gaining a deeper understanding of failure modes in process operations and thus are an enabler of a predictive-maintenance ...
