The cohesive energy of condensed matter in strong magnetic fields is a fundamental quantity characterizing magnetized neutron star surfaces. The cohesive energy refers to the energy required to pull an atom out of the bulk condensed matter at zero pressure. Theoretical models of pulsar and magnetar magnetospheres depend on the cohesive properties of the surface matter in strong magnetic fields....

Cohesive-zone models for interfaces incorporate both strength and energy parameters. Therefore, they provide a natural bridge between strength-based models and energy-based models for fracture, allowing delamination to be described by a single framework that covers a range of applications for which the strength or energy criteria alone might not be sufficient. In this paper, the relationships b...

investigation of projectiles penetration phenomenon has been carried out in non-cohesive soil (sand) targets under dry, saturated and compacted conditions. analytical studies have been performed on the linear and non-linear soil models to obtain penetration depth formulae for ogival nose projectile and the results are verified by experimental studies. in present work, three ogival nose projecti...

when geotechnical engineers are faced with cohesive clayey soils, the engineering properties of those soils may need to be improved to make them suitable for construction. the aim of this paper is to study the effect of using lime, natural pozzolana or a combination of both on the geotechnical characteristics of two cohesive soils. lime or natural pozzolana were added to these soils at ranges o...

We have developed a cohesive extraction based single document summarizer (COHSUM) based on coreference links in a document. The sentences providing the most references to other sentences and that other sentences are referring to, are considered the most important and are therefore extracted. Additionally, before evaluations of summary quality, a corpus analysis was performed on the original doc...

This paper studies which social networks maximize trust and welfare when agreements are implicitly enforced. We study a repeated trust game in which trading opportunities arise exogenously and a social network determines the information each player has. We show that cohesive communities, modeled as social networks of complete components, emerge as the optimal community design. Cohesive communit...

These two case studies report how a cohesive short-stretch bandage was employed to promote venous leg ulcer healing. The two patients were obese and in addition had champagne bottle shaped legs. The cohesive short-stretch bandage was applied following the shape of the leg. By using a cohesive short-stretch bandage this provided bandage stability. This sustained compression resulted in oedema an...

We consider coherent and cohesive sheaves of O–modules over open sets Ω ⊂ Cn. We prove that coherent sheaves, and certain other sheaves derived from them, are cohesive; and conversely, certain sheaves derived from cohesive sheaves are coherent. An important tool in all this, also proved here, is that the sheaf of Banach space valued holomorphic germs is flat. To Linda Rothschild on her birthday
