Time-Frequency Characteristics of Acoustic Emission Signals on Water-Bearing Sandstone Specimen Subjected to Conventional Uniaxial Compression by Hui-qiang Duan, Ming-tao Gao, Hong-yu Yan

“…The main achievements are as follows: (1) The violent fluctuation of AE time domain parameters indicates that the water-bearing sandstone specimen is about to be destroyed. This characteristic provides a theoretical basis for predicting the failure of water-bearing rock in engineering practice. (2) In the elastic phase, the AE b value is the lowest but has a sudden increase after falling into the steady crack propagation phase. …”

Experimental Study on Acoustic Emission Characteristics of Granite and Sandstone under Uniaxial Compression by Yongshuai Sun, Fei Yu, Jianguo Lv

“…The results of the study are as follows: there is a quiet zone in the acoustic emission event before the rock is destroyed and destabilized, and the higher the rock strength, the more obvious the quiet zone; this important feature can be used as a precursor feature of rock mass failure for prediction, and the rock acoustic emission energy rate is more obvious in the quiet area before destruction than the acoustic emission event rate; rock acoustic emission has experienced initial compaction zone, rising zone, peak zone, and descending zone, whether different rocks go through each stage and how long each stage lasts is related to the nature of the rock; under different loading methods, the failure mechanism of rock is different; the different loading rates of monotonic loading and grading loading will affect the change rate of acoustic emission.…”

Building Coastal Dunes with Sea Oats and Surrogate Wrack by Natalie Hooton, Debbie L. Miller, Mack Thetford, Sean Claypool

“…Sea oats build dunes by capturing blowing sand and stabilizing it, and they’re often planted after dunes have been eroded, fragmented, or destroyed. Managers have tried commercial fertilizers and water-absorbing gels to ensure planted sea oats survive and thrive, but these products are not always effective and can be expensive. …”

La mixité religieuse comme stratégie politique. La dynastie des Māmmadoč du Wallo (Éthiopie centrale), du milieu du XVIIIe siècle au début du XXe siècle by Éloi Ficquet

“…The rare historical sources related to this period describe these Māmmadoč imāms as fanatical Muslims, that were aimed at destroying their Christian neighbours. However, these representations can be put under different perspectives through unpublished notes collected in the years 1840 by the French traveller Arnauld d’Abbadie, from an informant of Wallo who seems to have lived in the entourage of these imāms. …”

Influence of Steam Curing Method on the Performance of Concrete Containing a Large Portion of Mineral Admixtures by Mengyuan Li, Qiang Wang, Jun Yang

“…The effect of the late performance of resistance to chloride ion permeability improved by FA is better than the effect improved by GGBS. The risk of destroying the structure of concrete containing a large portion of FA or GGBS due to delayed ettringite formation (DEF) is minimal when specimens were steam-cured at 80°C.…”

Flux Fractionalization Transition in Anisotropic S=1 Antiferromagnets and Dimer-Loop Models by Souvik Kundu, Kedar Damle

“…The destruction of power-law columnar spin order below w_{c} is driven by an unusual flux fractionalization mechanism, topological in character but quite distinct from the usual Kosterlitz-Thouless mechanism for such transitions: Fractional electric fluxes which are bound into integer values for w>w_{c}, proliferate in the w<w_{c} phase and destroy power-law columnar order.…”
