(2015-12-10)Carbonates may be incorporated in the mantle at collisional plate boundaries by many processes, including subduction of weathered oceanic lithosphere and fault-bounded tectonic slivers of seamounts. Once magnesite is formed ...

(2013-11-26)Phenomena occurring when microscopic objects approach planar surfaces are challenging to probe directly because their dynamics cannot be resolved with a sufficiently high spatial/temporal resolution in a non-invasive way, ...

(2012-07-16)Simulating virtual objects which can deform or break apart within their environments is now common in state-of-the-art virtual simulations such as video games or surgery simulations. Real-time performance requires a physical ...

(2012-11-12)Interest in evaluating the performance and safety of offshore oil and gas platforms has been expanding due to the growing world energy supply and recent offshore catastrophes. In order to accurately assess the reliability ...

(2012-02-14)Theory and experiment show that the rate and geographic distribution of erosion control the rate and pattern of deformation in collisional mountain belts. Enhanced erosion reduces the mass of material that must be moved ...
