N2/Ar and Ar/He relationships: Fluid inclusion magmatic gases are measured using quadrupole mass spectrometers and the data is compared to measurements of volcanic gas analyses. Data reported by Giggenbach from active volcanoes give N2/Ar ratios in the general range of 100 to 1000 whereas corresponding Ar/He ratios vary from 100 to 2. Plotted on a Ar/He vs. N2/Ar diagram the data defines a fiel...

The transition between necking-mediated tensile failure of glasses, at elevated temperatures and/or low strain-rates, and shear-banding-mediated failure, high is investigated using experiments on metallic glasses atomistic simulations. We experimentally simulationally show that this occurs through a sequence macroscopic patterns, parametrized by the ultimate strength. Quantitatively analyzing s...

Pendant droplets of water and paramagnetic solutions are studied in the presence uniform nonuniform magnetic fields produced by small permanent magnet arrays, both static conditions during dynamic pinch-off. Static measurements droplet shape analysed terms an apparent surface tension {\gamma}app or effective density \r{ho}eff. The change deionized a field 450 mT is insignificant, 0.19 - 0.21 mN...

Motivated by a model that qualitatively captured the response of vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) pillars in uniaxial compression, we consider the uniaxial tensile response of a class of compressible elastic-viscoplastic solids. In Hutchens et al. [“Analysis of Uniaxial Compression of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes,” J. Mech. Phys. Solids, 59, pp. 2227–2237 (2011), Erratum 60, 17...

[1] Comparison of analogue experiments at crustal and lithospheric scale provides essential information concerning the mode of deformation during lithospheric extension. This study shows that during extension, lithospheric deformation is controlled by the development of shear zones in the ductile parts. At lithospheric scale, the global deformation is initiated by the rupture of the brittle man...

Plastic deformation of DC04 steel is regarded as a nonlinear, complex, irreversible, and self-organized process. The stress–strain time series analysis provided the possibility to identify areas (quasi-)elastic deformation, plastic necking. latter two regions are most informative. area inelastic reflected by collective, processes that lead formation pores, finally, development microcracks gener...
