Dynamic Response Law of Nonpersistent Jointed Rock Mass Under Normal Impact Load by Xianshi Deng, Yan Chang, Rong Hu, Heng Deng, Duofang Lu

“…When the impact height is 2000 mm, the energy dissipation first increases and then decreases. Under the action of cyclic impact, the crack propagation path of jointed rock mass specimens is that the cracks originate at the loading place and develop to the joint surface and then spread to the weak joint end to form 90° wing cracks. …”

Dp-brane Dynamics and Thermalization in Type IIB Ben Ami-Kuperstein-Sonnenschein Models by Dariush Kaviani

“…We also derive the energy–stress tensor of the thermal probes and study their backreaction and energy dissipation. We show that at the IR scale the backreaction is nonnegligible and find the energy can flow from the probes to the bulk, dual to the energy dissipation from the flavor sectors into the gauge theory.…”
