In the geological sciences it has only recently been recognized how important the process of
impact cratering is on a planetary scale, where it is commonly the most important surface …

The understanding of fracture phenomena of a material at extremely high strain rates is a
key issue for a wide variety of scientific research ranging from applied science and …

Ventifacts (wind-worn stones) are typical of terrestrial environments remained very long
without any vegetation, under hot or cold climates. Therefore, within the sedimentary record …

The Simlipal complex in eastern India is an elliptical structure with diameter of ca. 50 km
coinciding with an elliptical region of high gravity. It overlies the Archaean basement of the …

In situ femtosecond x-ray diffraction measurements and ab initio molecular dynamics
simulations were performed to study the liquid structure of tantalum shock released from …

Abstract The Late Triassic (Carnian to Rhaetian Stages: ca. 237–201 Ma) has a long history
of geological research, although controversy remains over the precise definition of key sub …

A constitutive model is developed for dry granular materials that smoothly transitions across
a wide range of pressures and temperatures. This model handles large deformations and is …

In this contribution, we present a model of the neotectonic (middle Miocene to recent)
development of the Lao Cai Basin located in the Vietnamese segment of the Red River Fault …

This report opens a new window on Quaternary tectonics of the Outer Western Carpathians.
We discuss results of fractured clasts analysis in Quaternary fluvial gravels within a 4.500 km …

The transition between the Permian and the Triassic systems in Israel is evident only in the
subsurface. Two cores, from the Makhtesh Qatan 2 (core 9) and Avedat 1 (core 5) drillholes …
