▼ Carbonates may be incorporated in the mantle at collisional plate boundaries by many processes, including subduction of weathered oceanic lithosphere and fault-bounded tectonic slivers of seamounts. Once magnesite is formed in subducting slabs, it is likely to remain as an important carbon-bearing phase, as its stability extends over a wide range of mantle conditions. High-magnesium carbonates, including magnesite and dolomite, have been observed in ultra-deep metamorphic collisional terrains and in mantle xenoliths. Recent
deformation experiments of magnesite indicate that it is weaker than mantle phases such as olivine and that it is likely to affect the geodynamics of subduction. Microstructures and lattice orientations of experimentally deformed samples have been investigated in this study, using optical and electron microscopes and electron backscatter diffraction. Microstructures of samples deformed at lower temperatures (400-600 ˚C), at strain rates of 10
-4-10-6 s
-1 and an effective pressure of 900 MPa are dominated by undulose extinction, kink bands, and mechanical twins. At higher temperatures (>750 ˚C), microstructures include undulatory extinction and extensive dynamically recrystallized grains, subgrains, and core-and-mantle structures. Mechanical twins are not observed at these higher temperatures. External rotations of magnesite c- and a-axes show that dislocations glide on the c, r, and f planes by slip systems that are similar to those reported for calcite and dolomite. Additionally, magnesite mechanically twins on the e- and f-planes. The CRSS values for magnesite twins exceed 300 MPa, significantly greater than twinning CRSS reported for either calcite or dolomite. I propose that twinning CRSS in the carbonate system is controlled, not by crystal class or cationic ordering, but by cationic size, which affects CO3
2- anion-anion repulsion at twin boundaries. This hypothesis is consistent with lowest energy calcite twin modeling of Bruno et al. (2010). In a similar fashion to twinning, I predict that dislocation movement is also controlled by cation size. Lastly, I observe that this effect is not limited to carbonates. Cationic size may also affect CRSS values for twinning in oxides and the strength of olivine with different Fe and Mg contents deforming in the dislocation creep regime.

The Role of Fluids on Rock Rheology: Experimental Studies on

▼ Experiments were conducted in a Griggs-type
deformation apparatus at high temperature and pressure to determine
the effects of fluids on rock rheology. In the first suite of
experiments, quartzite samples were deformed in the presence of
aqueous and carbonic fluids to document how the addition of CO2
affects the strength of quartzite deforming by dislocation creep.
My results document that the presence of CO2 can cause
strengthening or weakening depending on the oxygen fugacity of the
deformation environment, which changes the water fugacity. The
results of these experiments highlight the importance of chemical
environment for quartzite deforming by dislocation creep and
suggest that local differences in oxygen fugacity, possibly due to
changes in local mineral assemblages, can affect the
deformation
behavior of quartz by changing water fugacity in the presence of
CO2. In the second suite of experiments, antigorite serpentinite
was deformed within its stability field and where dehydration
occurs to characterize its
deformation behavior. The presence of a
thin layer of ductily deforming antigorite has been suggested as
the mechanism that allows for slab-wedge coupling in subduction
zones. My experiments document that
deformation localizes within
the antigorite stability field, however the "effective" viscosity
in the shear zones may be low enough to explain decoupling.
Experiments conducted above the thermal stability of antigorite
indicate that dehydration is associated with extreme weakening but
not unstable behavior. My results suggest that weakening is due the
generation of a pore fluid pressure at the onset of dehydration,
which decreases the effective pressure. Sample strength may also be
affected by the generation of porosity and fine-grained reaction
products along grain boundaries. Experiments in which temperature
was increased to cross the reaction temperature during
deformation
document rapid weakening that occurs over several minutes and is
controlled by the ratio of ramp rate/strain rate. Strain rate
stepping experiments both above and below the dehydration
temperature document that antigorite is velocity strengthening, a
behavior that inhibits earthquake nucleation. My results therefore
suggest that antigorite dehydration does not directly lead to the
generation of intermediate-depth earthquakes but may lead to slow
slip events.

▼ Compatibility conditions for various strain measures
are well known in both small and finite strain kinematics. For many
plane
deformation problems in solid mechanics, such conditions
enable boundary value problems to be formulated using strains,
stresses, or a generating potential function, as the fundamental
dependent variable(s). This thesis is concerned with the
compatibility issue for the rotation field, as it relates to the
study of plane deformations. Although it is not a direct measure of
the distortion in a
deformation, the rotation associated with a
deformation and its variation from point to point within a
continuous body turns out to carry quite a bit of information about
the actual
deformation. Presented here, is a methodology showing
that any planar proper orthogonal tensor can serve as a rotation
field and can be used to construct a plane finite
deformation.
Various applications of the method are analyzed accompanied by
examples, in which specific deformations examined are: local
deformations around a point or curve of interest, twinning and
two-phase deformations, and finally area preserving
deformations.

▼ This thesis documents a study of the high strain rate
deformation behavior of Ni-containing steels of interest to the
U.S. Navy for ship structures. A range of microstructures that
resulted in different static mechanical properties in a family of
Ni-containing steels was generated by modifying heat treatments for
a given steel composition (10% Ni-0.1%C) and by modifying the steel
composition in terms of Ni content (2.5%, 3.5%, 4.5%, 6.5% and 10%)
as well as C (0.1% and 0.03%) content. The loss in strength from C
decrease in the lower Ni versions was offset by adding Cu to
produce precipitation hardening from the nanosize Cu precipitates.
The influence of microstructure on the dynamic properties of these
steels was studied through a combination of careful documentation
of the initial microstructure, mechanical testing using the Kolsky
compression bar set-up, and detailed post-
deformation
microstructure characterization. The dynamic
deformation behavior
of a steel with the composition
0.09%C-10.0%Ni-1.2%Mo-0.6%Mn-0.5%Cr-0.1%V (wt.%) was first examined
in two different tempers. In the first case, the microstructure
consisted of heavily dislocated martensite laths with a fine
distribution of MC carbides. This microstructure was highly prone
to shear localization in the strain rate regime 2 x 10 3 s -1 to 4
x 10 3 s -1 . The resulting adiabatic shear band, approximately 15
μm wide, consisted of submicron equiaxed grains composed of a
mixture of fcc and bcc phases thought to be austenite and
ferrite/martensite.In the second case, the tempered microstructure
consisted of martensite laths although the dislocation density
appeared lower; in addition to coarse MC carbides, M 2 C carbides
and austenite islands were noted. At comparable strain rates, the
steel was more resistant to localization and a well-developed shear
band was not obtained; incorporating a notch in the specimen
however facilitated the formation of a shear band. The
microstructure within the band was again composed of equiaxed
grains but diffraction patterns did not show the presence of the
fcc phase, implying its transformation during
deformation to bcc
ferrite/martensite. This phase transformation of austenite to
martensite may be responsible for the enhanced resistance to shear
localization. This finding was followed by a methodical study to
evaluate the role of precipitated austenite content, composition
and size distribution on xvi discouraging shear localization.
Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to determine austenite content in
the heat-treated steels. Results confirmed that when the austenite
content was in excess of 5 volume percent, shear localization could
be postponed. For similar volume fractions that showed enhancements
in shear localization resistance, tempering at a lower temperature
resulted in less of a loss in static strength while displaying
enhanced ballistic resistance. When lower levels of Ni were
incorporated in the alloy, for example 2.5% Ni or 3.5% Ni instead
of 10% Ni, the shear localization resistance improved but the
improvement…

▼ The Coptic cemetery in Manshiyet Nasser, is the final result of a process that includes mapping, "transcription" of these diagrams and design according to certain principles defined during the process. The site for the mapping was Manshiyet Nasser /Garbage city, where the garbage collectors of Cairo are settled. The reason behind the choice, is that this place offers an opportunity to study how the garbage occupies public space in different configurations and what kind of space is created between the elements that are part of. The final product of mapping is a series of diagrams that depict a deformed grid. The degree of deformation varies, according to the voids created between the elements on the picture /the front view of stacks. The quality on which the interest is focused, are the dense and sparse areas that are created by deformation. The sucession of dense and sparse areas is becoming the main principle of the design. Other key words of the design are :altered landscape and bridging of different levels. The last ones were influential so as the cliff to be the site of intervention. The program is related to the notions of : layered structure, repetition of units, connections-disconnections. At the same time, the cemetery as proposal, might be a solution for the current problematic situation; the Coptics that live in the Garbage City have to travel even for 55km for visiting the cemeteries. The final design concerns a structure that creates a new border between the cliff and the public space. It may be described as a building-landscape (or landscape building?) for the reason that there is no interior or exterior in the common sense -which is the case for a building, however is formed by elements that are common in buildings such as slabs and walls. The structure consists of precast concrete elements. The graves are developed verticaly, in combination with plants on top of each volume. The solid parts of the structure -that are the graves, are filled with soil, which is also a necessary condition according to the Coptics' tradition, but also plays a role in the decomposition process. Thus, this design proposal preserves the positive qualities of the traditional cemetery setting-which is outside the city and at the same time has a closer relation to urban life.

▼ Ce travail vise à mieux comprendre les interactions entre couplage, glissement lent et rupture sismique en contexte de subduction. L’objet d’étude est la subduction Nord Chili–Sud Pérou, qui a été reconnue comme une lacune sismique et qui a fait l’objet d’un important effort international d’instrumentation géophysique. Cette zone a été affectée par tremblements de terre qui ont été bien enregistrés, ce qui en fait une cible bien adaptée pour étudier les mécanismes de préparation des grands séismes de subduction, et le lien entre couplage, glissements lents et rupture sismique.Les 65 stations GPS installées dans la zone ont été traitées en doubles différences avec le logiciel GAMIT-GLOBK sur la période 2000-2014. Les séries temporelles de position obtenues ont été analysées et les déplacements associés aux différentes phases du cycle sismique et aux mouvements saisonniers ont été modélisés.L’analyse des tendances dans les séries temporelles GPS ont permis de mettre en évidence un changement de vitesse intersismique avant et après le séisme en slab-pull de Tarapacà de juin 2005, dans la région qui a été rompue par le séisme d’interface d’Iquique en 2014. Ce changement de vitesse est associé à un changement de taux de sismicité superficielle et profonde. Le déclustering du catalogue sismique indique que ce changement de taux, affecte aussi la sismicité de fond, caractéristique du taux de chargement. Nous avons pu mettre en évidence que des interactions existent entre sismicité profonde et superficielle, et pourraient jouer un rôle important dans la préparation des grands séismes d’interface. A plus courte échelle de temps, les séries temporelles montre un autre changement de vitesse 8 mois avant le séisme d’Iquique. La modélisation indique que ce changement correspond à un glissement lent de Mw 6.5, essentiellement asismique, correspondant à la phase de nucléation long-terme de ce tremblement de terre.Nous avons également analysé les variations court terme dans les signaux non-modélisés des séries temporelles GPS, qui ont permis d’identifier, grâce à une méthode de Template Matching 48 petits événements de glissement lent pendant la période de chargement intersismique. Ces événements sont basés pour leur grande majorité en dessous de la zone sismogénique dans des zones de couplage très faible, ou de couplage intermédiaire, indiquant que le glissement se fait par relâchements successifs. Souvent ces événements transitoires sont corrélés à des pics d’activité sismique, notamment profonde.La cinématique de la source du séisme d’Iquique et de sa plus grosse réplique a été étudiée en combinant données GPS à haute fréquence et données accélérométriques. Les déplacements statiques ont été inversés pour caractériser la répartition du moment géométrique. Cette source statique a ensuite été utilisée comme prior pour une séquence d’inversions cinématiques en fréquence. Les résultats montre que ces deux séismes…

classical PS-INSAR analysis in corporate measurement those satellite data. and can be detect a long
term maximum land subsidence rate of about -36.78mm/yr measuring at PSINSAR , and minimum
3mm of uplifting are detected. The quantitative validation results of the InSAR-derived
deformation
trend during the five observation periods are stable with the ADIS GPS station data measured from
2014 to 2018. Overall, the adopted methodology can be used successfully for detection, mapping
and monitoring of the subsiding areas vulnerable to future collapse. This will facilitate efficient
planning and designing of surface infrastructures and other developmental structures in the urban
areas and mitigation management of subsidence induced hazards.

▼ Mathematics
We investigate the problem how to describe the equivalence classes of formal deformations of a symplectic manifold M in the case when we have several deformation parameters \ve1, \ve2, \dots, \veg of non-positive degrees. We define formal deformations of M over the base ring \bbC[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]] as Maurer-Cartan elements of the differential graded Lie algebra (\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg) \sPD^\bullet(M)[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]] where \sPD^\bullet(M) denotes the algebra of polydifferential operators on M. The interesting feature of such deformations is that, if at least one formal parameter carries a non-zero degree, then the resulting Maurer-Cartan element corresponds to a \bbC[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]]-multilinear A_∞-structure on the graded vector space \cO(M)[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]] with the zero differential, where \cO(M) is the algebra of smooth complex-valued functions M. This dissertation focuses on formal deformations of \cO(M) with the base ring \bbC[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]] such that corresponding MC elements μ satisfy these two conditions: The Kodaira-Spencer class of μ is \ve \al and μ satisfies the equation μ \rvert\ve=0 =0. The main result of this study gives us a bijection between the set of isomorphism classes of such deformations and the set of all degree 2 vectors of the graded vector space \, \bigoplusq ≥ 0 \, (\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg) \, Hq(M, \bbC)[[\ve, \ve1, \dots, \veg]] where H^\bullet(M, \bbC) is the singular cohomology of M with coefficients in \bbC and every vector of Hq(M, \bbC) carries degree q.

▼ Cell deformability is being recognized as an easily measurable indicator to differentiate different types of cells and detect diseased cells. A recent promising and advantageous technique to assess cell deformability is the cross-channel microfluidic deformability cytometry (DC). It uses a stretching extensional flow, in which each time an individual cell undergoes deformation. Using our three-dimensional computational algorithm for multiphase viscoelastic flow, known as VECAM, this study focuses on modeling the deformation of living cells in such microfluidic channels. Through the computational simulations, we first identified the central extensional flow region in the cross section of the channel, where cells are stretched due to mostly fluid momentum and resulting normal stresses. Our simulation data indicate that the range of deformability indices observed for human cells in DC experiments (from 1.5 to 2.3) corresponds to the range of cell elasticities from 3,000 to 15,000 Pa. We have also showed that both cell size and cortical tension have a much less effect on cell deformability than cell elasticity. The study further shows the cell oscillation in the extensional flow region caused by pressure imbalance in DC experiments does not affect much how long cell stays in this region and has a very limited impact on the measured cell deformability index. Finally, our study shows offset in both Y and Z directions can alter the results of the deformability measurement in a significant way. Our fully three-dimensional parallel computational algorithm is proven to realistically simulate cell movement and deformation in the cross-channel deformability cytometry. With the acquired simulation results, the computational study provides helpful insights and future guidance that are otherwise impossible to be obtained from the experimental data to the cytometry experiments.

▼ Geodetic Deformation Monitoring (GDM) plays a vital role in project safety and management. Geodetic measurements on dams are done to monitor change and rate of change in order to ensure safety. Kariba Dam suffers normal stresses, and strains mainly from temperature and hydrostatic pressure seasonal changes. These loads deflect the dam upstream/downstream in summer and winter, respectively. The deflections are currently monitored using a traditional deformation monitoring system by Zambezi River Authority (ZRA). However, more unexpected factors which were not catered for at design stage have rendered the traditional methods obsolete. These unexpected factors are: Reservoir Induced Seismicity (RIS), plunge pool scouring, Alkali Aggregate Reaction (AAR), landslide and earth-work vibrations. Thus, in this study, the dam was assessed to have new deformation patterns: Clockwise (southward) horizontal rotation of the north abutment, tangential movements of the dam northwards, increased upstream/upward swelling of the dam crest, and southward vertical rotation of the south and north bank . Due to the above deflections, the Kariba Dam arch has lost its original shape, with the arch ends buckling more than the spillway section. Human-related errors may worsen these deformations. The vertical and horizontal rotational tendencies resulted from anchor cables and landslide moments of forces on the south bank. AAR effect was analyzed as being of less concern because past findings proved it’s subsiding. Poor geology destabilized the control points, thus rendering the classical monitoring system less accurate. To address the new deformations, a real-time, automated GNSS/LPS Online-based Control and Alarm System (GOCA) was designed for an early detection, alerting of landslide and its effects on the dam to classified users. This system applies GNSS and classical Local Positioning Sensors (LPS) such as Total Stations, and geotechnical instruments. It was recommended that prism array be installed urgently for use even under the classical methods for more deformation detection. This research has explained the puzzling new dam behaviour and substantiated the effects of the landslide which might have been worsened by earth work activities in the area with poor geology. Hence this research formed a basis for future studies and monitoring system improvements at the Kariba Dam through easy-to-understand analysis and visualizations of concepts and past deformation data presented mainly in form of tables by ZRA. The analysis included computations of rates of change of current deformations compared to the previous. The past and current deformation results were visualized in form of drawings and illustrations which helped link landslide forces to new dam deformations.

▼ PROTEROZOIC ASSEMBLY OF NORTH AMERICA: INSIGHT FROM THE INTERACTIONS OF
DEFORMATION, METAMORPHISM AND MAGMATISM IN THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES Robert Alexander Hunter, Ph. D. Cornell University One of the major goals of the geoscience community is to develop an accurate tectonic history of North America. Understanding how our continent evolved through time has numerous implications for our ability to develop accurate models of the tectonic evolution of continents - how they form, deform, and break. The interactions of
deformation, metamorphism, and plutonism, three fundamental geological processes at work throughout the evolution of continents, record information that can be used to better understand the mechanisms and events that have shaped our continent. This dissertation employs metamorphic petrology, structural geology, geochemistry and geothermobarometry to interrogate the interactions of
deformation, metamorphism and plutonism on multiple scales across the southwest United States. On a microscope scale, this dissertation shows that
deformation and metamorphism can work in a positive feedback loop, facilitated by solution mass transfer, to localize both
deformation and metamorphism, producing areas of high strain that have more closely approached metamorphic equilibrium. This result informs our understanding of crustal behavior at mid-crustal depths during orogenesis. On the mountain range scale, this dissertation combines petrographic analysis, structural geology, geochemistry and geothermobarometry to show that metamorphism in the Tusas and Picuris Mountains of northern New Mexico is consistent with one metamorphic event following a pressure-temperature-time trajectory consistent with progressive loading during the formation of a fold and thrust belt. This result informs our understanding of the tectonic history of North America, and has implications for the petrogenesis of aluminosilicate triple-point rocks in the region. Finally, on a continental scale, this dissertation uses previously published geochronologic data to identify spatial patterns in the age of igneous bodies across the southwest United States. These results were used to characterize mesoproterozoic tectonism and develop a model for melt production of these plutons. This result informs not only our understanding of crustal growth and rejuvenation during orogeny, but also provides a comprehensive dataset and novel approach that may both be employed in future research.

▼ In shape modeling applications, \emph{
deformation} is the process of applying a continuous, non-affine transformation to a shape. The definition of the
deformation should be independent of the representation of the shape. In practice, the shape is often represented by its boundary, which is defined by a set of vertices and by connectivity information. The transformation is often applied to these points.
A
deformation algorithm takes the orginal shape and designer's choices as inputs, and outputs the deformed shape. This dissertation dedicates to introducing \emph{spine-based
deformation}: Any distortion to the shape is controlled by a low dimensional proxy, which is a spine curve or surface. Considering a sometimes important constraint to preserve the shape's volume during
deformation, this thesis addresses a suite of problems in spine-based
deformation with local volume preservation, meaning that the volume of any subset of the shape is preserved. Although our
deformation model may be applied to the control points or vertices of a surface model that is not a water tight boundary of a solid, in this thesis, the term shape will refer to a solid model which has a clearly defined interior and volume. Previously proposed local or global volume compensation techniques are typically based on iterations that introduce a complexity bilinear in the numbers of vertices and iterations. we present a family of closed-form solutions for shape
deformation with mathematically exact local volume preservation, and demonstrate their power in the context of interactive bending, rotating, sliding or stretching a 2D or 3D shape. The overall complexity is linear in the number of vertices.
Proposed spine-based
deformation framework adopts the following assumptions in geometric modeling:
– When the spine is a curve, a plane normal to the spine curve remains normal to the spine curve after
deformation. The parameter associated with the point at which the plane intersects the curve is unchanged.
– When the spine is a surface, a line normal to the spine surface remains normal to the spine surface after
deformation. The parameters associated with the point at which the line intersecting the plane remain unchanged.
With these assumptions, we compute the closed-form formulation for the
deformation that guarantees local volume preservation and is expressed using real roots of low degree polynomials and simple point and vector expressions.
Due to its simplicity, our solution may be used to deform complex models in realtime during interactive manipulation or during animation, where the behavior of the spine has been designed or is computed in realtime through simulation.

▼ Deformation, profile and tomography measurement is critical for engineering materials characterization and engineering structure component design, analysis and biomedical application. The current existing 3D measurement method, such as stylus based profilometry, 3D optical stereo imaging and focus stacking, either suffers from low sampling speed from spatial scanning or maximum thickness of the specimen that could be imaged due to physical constraints. This thesis is dedicated to develop a hybrid 3D measurement method that can be easily implemented with fast imaging speed for dynamic process at the microscale. Also, at the microscale, the reduced depth of focus of existing microscope system greatly limits the maximum depth of the specimen that could be imaged, especially at high magnification. In this study, a 3D tomography system will be developed with extended depth of focus and improved axial resolution.

▼ Eurokoderna som tillsammans med EKS (Boverkets konstruktionsregler), utgör svenska normer för verifiering av bärförmåga, stadga och beständighet kan ibland vara svåra och tidsödande att tolka och tillämpa i konstruktionsarbetet. I bruksgränstillstånd finns oftast inte krav kvantifierade i eurokoden utan det är byggherrens eller konstruktörens ansvar att formulera dimensioneringskriterier för till exempel deformationer. Denna brist på tydliga krav och definitioner gör det svårt att få en samlad bild och tolkningar och kriterier tenderar till att bli individuella. Hur deformationsgränser och lastfall tolkas och tillämpas påverkar hur byggnadsdelar dimensioneras och utformas och därmed även materialåtgång, kostnad och miljö. Den här studien är gjord för att effektivisera hur AFRY arbetar med eurokoderna med avseende på bruksgränstillstånd och framför allt vertikala stomdeformationer. Studien visar även hur materialanvändningen påverkas av olika deformationskriterier och lastfall. För att kunna visa detta har några vanligt förekommande konstruktionslösningar studerats. Det som framkommit är att frånvarandet av deformationsgränser i de svenska eurokoderna är en brist som borde åtgärdas och kanske borde vi göra som andra länder som har med deformationsgränser i den generella delen av eurokoden. Eurokoderna kan även vara krångliga att läsa, och det är lätt att tappa helhetsbilden när informationen som eftersöks finns i olika stycken och eurokoder. Det har även framkommit att materialåtgången kan vara så stor som 66 procent beroende av hur eurokoderna tolkas och vilka deformationskrav som används. Det är dock en siffra som kan ha stora variationer beroende på konstruktionslösning och material, men resultatet ger dock en fingervisning på hur det kan se ut.

Berechnungen verdeutlicht werden. In den äquiaxialen γ-Körnern
hingegen liegen nach Kriechverformung kaum Versetzungen vor. Für
die γ-Körner wurde das Korngrenzengleiten als Mechanismus
identifiziert, der mit steigenden Dehnungen im Kriechexperiment

▼ Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit 3D FE-Analysen von
lokalisiertem Versagen in spröden Materialien. Die Analysen wurden
mittels eingebetteter starker Diskontinuitäten durchgeführt. Das
Verschiebungsfeld wurde additiv in einen stetigen und einen
diskontinuierlichen Anteil zerlegt. Die numerische Umsetzung
erfolgte auf der Grundlage des Enhanced-Assumed- Strain-Konzeptes.
Bei Verwendung von Kohäsivzonenmodellen, werden die Phänomene, die
zum Versagen führen, auf die Fläche der Verschiebungsdiskontinuität
beschränkt. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit liegt auf der Robustheit der
numerischen Lösung. Um die Berechnungskosten zu minimieren, wurde
auf die Anwendung eines Algorithmus, der die Risspfadkontinuität
erzwingt, verzichtet. Zur Vermeidung von Locking-Effekten erfolgte
die Modifizierung der Methode der starken Diskontinuitäten (SDA).
Es wurden zwei Modifikationen implementiert. Die Leistungsfähigkeit
der aufgestellten SDA-Formulierungen wird anhand repräsentativer
Beispiele demonstriert.

▼ The existence of highest proton numbers at which the nuclear landscape cease to ex-
ist, the end of the periodic table of elements and the limits of the existence of the nu-
clei are some of the difficult questions to answer. To explore those questions, we in-
vestigated hyperheavy nuclei (<i>Z</i> ≥ 126) using covariant density functional theory. We
demonstrate the existence of three regions of spherical hyperheavy nuclei centered around
(<i>Z</i> ∼ 138, <i>N</i> ∼ 230), (<i>Z</i> ∼ 156, <i>N</i> ∼ 310) and (<i>Z</i> ∼ 174, <i>N</i> ∼ 410). Also, we explored
other properties of hyperheavy nuclei such as octupole
deformation, alpha decay half lives,
chemical potential, etc.

▼ Deformation of the orthodontic bracket upon wire
engagement may result in torque dissipation within the bracket
rather than transmission to the tooth and its supporting
structures. The purpose of this study was: 1) quantify the amount
of torque expression and 2) quantify any deformation as a result of
such increasing torque expression. Digital image correlation is an
accurate means of analyzing an orthodontic bracket's structural
response to an applied moment of force created through archwire
rotation in vitro. A sample of 30 Orthos and 30 OrthosTi brackets
were tested with custom software using a novel application of
digital image correlation. OrthosTi brackets produce significantly
greater amounts of torque from 48° to 24° returning to a neutral
position. Titanium brackets exhibit greater variance in torque
expression but less variance in deformation. Orthos stainless steel
brackets exhibit significantly greater amounts of bracket slot
deformation in comparison to the OrthosTi.

Intracontinental Deformation Caused by Gravitational

(more)
▼ Gravitational removal of the dense lower lithosphere
is proposed to be a fundamental process in continental tectonics.
This has been used to explain seismological observations of an
abnormally thin lithosphere beneath some regions and evidence for
detached lithospheric materials at 100-200 km depth. In addition,
geochemical arguments suggest that a significant portion of the
lower lithosphere may have been recycled into the deeper mantle.
The removal process should significantly affect the overlying
crust, causing transient uplift/subsidence, crustal
contraction/extension and pulses of volcanism. As removal can occur
in continental plate interiors, it may provide an explanation of
areas of anomalous intraplate deformation that can not be readily
linked to tectonic processes. This thesis uses two-dimensional
thermal-mechanical numerical models to explore the surface
deflection and magmatism induced by gravitational lithosphere
removal. Removal is widely believed to be associated with surface
subsidence and widespread asthenospheric magmatism. However, the
models show that the surface expression depends strongly on the
thermal and rheological structure of the lithosphere. If the crust
is weak, the descending dense lithosphere induces lateral crustal
flow, leading to crustal thickening and surface uplift. Crustal
flow in a mid-crustal channel will smooth the surface subsidence
caused by the dense lithosphere; crustal flow in a lower-crust
channel can cause the surface to invert to become a topographic
high. Magmatism caused by lithosphere removal depends on the
removal style and the initial thermal structure of lithosphere.
During a Rayleigh-Taylor instability (drip), three types of magmas
are found: (1) for a hot lithosphere (e.g., back arc), the
foundering lithosphere can melt as it is descends and the
asthenosphere can undergo decompression melting as it upwells to
replace the removed lithosphere; (2) for a warm lithosphere (e.g.,
average Phanerozoic lithosphere), only asthenospheric melt is
predicted; (3) for a cold and thick lithosphere (e.g., craton), no
magmas are generated during removal. If removal occurs through
delamination, the dense mantle lithosphere rapidly peels along the
Moho and sinks into the deep mantle before it can melt. However,
significant decompression melting of the asthenosphere may occur as
it upwells to the base of crust. Delamination is associated with an
asymmetric surface signature, where crustal deformation and
magmatism migrate with the detachment hinge. In a Rayleigh-Taylor
instability, the deformation and magmatism are symmetric.
Observational data from a number of regions (e.g., southern Sierra
Nevada in North America, Puna plateau in the central Andes, and
Tibet in western China) are consistent with the numerical models,
suggesting that intracontinental deformation and magmatism in these
areas are related to lithosphere removal.

Formality quasi-isomorphisms Cobar(C) -> O are a necessary component of the machinery used in deformation quantization to produce quantized algebras of observables, however they are often constructed via transcendental methods, resulting in computational difficulties and quasi-isomorphisms defined over extensions of Q We will show that these formality quasi-isomorphisms can be "demystified" for a large class of dg-operads, by showing that they can be constructed recursively via an algorithm that builds them from systems of linear equations over Q, given certain assumptions on H(O).

▼ The primary
subject of this thesis is the evaluation of pipeline performance during earthquakes through analytical and experimental studies, spatial analysis, and probabilistic methodologies. Permanent ground deformations caused by liquefaction are also addressed through spatial and statistical analysis, and are compared to foundation deformations caused by liquefaction effects estimated through building damage surveys. This thesis starts with a comprehensive analytical and experimental assessment of segmented pipeline response to transient ground
deformation before and after rehabilitation with in situ lining technologies. The different modes of segmented pipeline
deformation caused by seismic wave propagation are investigated through finite element analyses to show that the most prominent form of
deformation at weak pipeline joints and circumferential pipe cracks are in the axial direction. They exceed the levels of all other forms of pipeline
deformation by several orders of magnitude. Nonaxial deformations have negligible effects on pipeline performance under seismic body wave propagation. Pipeline performance after rehabilitation with in situ linings is studied through large-scale testing and the effectiveness of in situ lining technology for seismic retrofit of critical lifelines is evaluated. Pipeline performance during earthquakes is also investigated through spatial analysis of the Christchurch water distribution system response to transient and permanent ground deformations during the 22 February 2011 Christchurch earthquake, New Zealand (NZ). Repair regressions for different pipe types are developed using spatial data sets that are unique in size and complexity, including dense array ground motion records, detailed mapping of areas affected by soil liquefaction, as well as spatial data sets for the water distribution system, geocoded repair records, and high resolution Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) measurements of vertical and horizontal movements. This study expands on previous work in several important ways, and provides a detailed framework of the analytical processes for repair regressions that assists in future investigations with data of similar size and complexity. A probabilistic model is presented in which the expected value of the ground strain in the axial pipeline direction within a strain field is calculated by assuming that pipeline orientation with respect to the strain field is uniformly distributed and by accounting for possible differences in tensile and compressive strains with a weighting factor. The proposed methodology is applied in regression analysis of pipeline damage caused by lateral ground strains during the 22 February 2011 Christchurch earthquake, NZ, and can be used for future investigations to improve the assessment of ground strains affecting segmented pipelines. Permanent ground
deformation during the 2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence, NZ, is evaluated through statistical analysis of vertical and lateral ground displacements, as well as differential vertical…

▼ The development of a petroleum reservoir would inevitably induce a rearrangement of the in-situ stress field. The rearrangement of the stress field would then bring about a
deformation of the reservoir rock and a change of the permeability. This experimental study was carried out to investigate rock
deformation and its impact on axial permeability. Triaxial compression tests were conducted on Berea sandstone, Indiana limestone, Westerly granite and tuff specimens. Axial permeability was continuously measured for Berea sandstone and Indiana limestone during triaxial compression tests. The axial permeability of fractured Westerly granite specimens was also measured during hydrostatic compression tests. Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring was performed to help improve the understanding of rock
deformation. Results showed that Berea sandstone and Westerly granite were relatively brittle, while Indiana limestone and tuff were relatively ductile. Rock
deformation altered pore structures and the change of pore structures considerably impacted fluid flow through rock. For porous Berea sandstone and Indiana limestone, the destruction of the pore structure by rock
deformation led to a decrease in axial permeability. For tight Westerly granite, fractures created by rock
deformation significantly improved the ease of fluid flow. Acoustic emission response was found to be strongly dependent on rock type. Brittle Berea sandstone and Westerly granite produced high AE rates during compression tests, while ductile Indiana limestone and tuff generated very low AE rates.

▼ The use of clumped isotope analysis in calcite is a rapidly developing and powerful technique for paleothermometry studies in tectonics and environmental sciences. For analysis of isotopes in deformed rocks, there is uncertainty if the
deformation of the calcite can reset clumped isotope concentrations, which limits the utility of the method. The goal of this research is to help determine if some typical
deformation processes, specifically plastic
deformation of calcite at low temperatures (˂200 C), can affect clumped isotope concentrations. Seven cores of calcite are deformed experimentally at strain rates 2-4.2x10⁻⁵ s⁻¹ , temperatures from 20 – 400 C, at confining pressure of 150-200 MPa, and to strains of 10-25%. The cores are taken from parent crystals in four different orientations relative to the crystallographic directions of calcite in order to induce different types of
deformation. The deformed samples were studied using optical microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction microscopy techniques to identify the types of plastic
deformation that operated in each test. Both mechanical e-twinning and r- and r+ slip were successfully activated, and to varying degrees, in the sample suite. Yield strengths observed in the experiments agree well with that expected (based on previous work) for the twin and slip mechanisms identified through microscopy. On the basis of the outcomes of this research, clumped isotope measurements of the parent crystals and the deformed samples will determine if, and which
deformation processes affect isotope concentrations. If isotope concentrations remain unchanged by
deformation, then the reliability of clumped isotope analysis in deformed rocks will be assured. If
deformation resets clumped isotope concentrations, then with further research the method holds great promise to determine the temperature at the time of
deformation, which would be a unique capability.

▼ Permanent
deformation of unbound base course materials under flexible pavements continue to be a significant source of the rutting observed at the surface. The permanent
deformation behavior of unbound aggregate bases (UAB) has been documented by several authors. Several models have been proposed to predict the permanent
deformation (rutting) occurring in the UAB. Most of the models do not take into account the stress dependent characteristics of UAB or have parameters which vary with stress state.
An improved model has been developed at Texas A&M University which includes the stress dependency in the model and this new approach has been validated. This new model incorporates power functions of the first and second invariants of the stress tensor directly in the model along with the ε0 , ρ , and β from existing single stage models. Several previous models attempted to achieve this by using the stress as a parameter in the fitting coefficients. This left many with relatively low values of R2 or with widely varying coefficients for a range of stress states. By using the stress state directly in the model, a generalized set of fitting parameters for a given material type have been generated. Using these generalized fitting parameters, it is shown that the new model fits the experimental data on a fundamental level.

▼ This study is conducted to analyze the
deformation pattern at a locality in the central part of Afar, northeast of Semera town, within the triple junction that is formed by the Arabian, Nubian and Somalian diverging plates. The study area is bordered by Manda Harraro rift in the northwest and Tendaho rift in the south. The region is one of the tectonically active areas in the world, where the episode of plate movement resulted in seafloor spreading that causes the earth‟s surface to deform in the form of surface cracking, sliding and faulting. Presently this dynamic process of earth‟s
deformation in space and time can be accurately detected by satellite space geodetic observations.
This study used Global Positioning System (GPS) and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) to study earth surface
deformation. InSAR data from Envisat, image mode, with track 028 ascending and track 278 descending is used to detect surface
deformation over the study area. To constrain the InSAR observations, continuously recorded GPS data obtained from DASM (2007-2012) and DASA (2008-2009) are used to investigate possible surface
deformation changes in the area.
The three dimensional position coordinates acquired from the DASM and DASA GPS stations over their period of observations have suggested a ground surface
deformation rate of 48.5+0.2mm/yr North, 39.5+0.2mm/yr East and -9.5+0.7mm/yr Up; and 27.8+0.4mm/yr North, 43.9+0.5mm/yr East and -21.8+1.4mm/yr Up for DASM and DASA GPS stations, respectively in an absolute sense. The Up component of DASM shows two characteristics, 2.8 mm/yr up to doy 150, 2008 and -25mm/yr afterwards. The DASA shows also -10mm/yr up to doy 147, 2008 and -29mm/yr afterwards. The InSAR time-series shows -44mm/yr Line of Sight (LOS) rate in both track. The correlation between the DASM GPS and track 028 is 0.75 and it has a correlation of 0.79 with track 278. Generally, the result from this investigation suggested that there is an active subsidence in the area which needs further attention.

The work in this thesis focuses on the martensitic steel known as P91.
In this work the mechanical response of the material was examined
through nite element material modelling and the results validated
through experimental methods. The primary goal of this research is
(i) to accurately represent the material response of P91 at a range
of temperatures, and (ii) to validate the material model through the
analysis of crystallographic orientations on the micro scale.
Uniaxial tensile tests were conducted using parent metal, weld metal
and cross weld specimens that had been extracted from a functioning
power plant with 20,000 hours of service. The results of the parent
P91 were consistent with other literature results in the case of yield
strength and elastic modulus. However the ductility of the steel was
reduced after experiencing service. The weld results showed a con-
siderable increase in yield strength when directly compared to P91
parent steel.
The uniaxial high temperature data was used to calibrate a crystal
plasticity material model based on a
ow rule. The
ow rule is a slip-
system based crystal plasticity model used to represent the material
deformation at the micro scale. Specimen level modelling also took
place, where the material model was represented by the uniaxial data
provided by the experimental testing in an isotropic elastic plastic
model formulation.
Microscopy was undertaken to investigate the microstructure of P91.
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was utilised as well as elec-
tron backscatter di raction (EBSD) to characterise the complex grain
structure associated with martensitic steels. This crystallographic data was utilised in the modelling of the micro scale analysis of the
steel.
Crystal deformation o ered a means of evaluating how well the ma-
terial model predicts the change in orientations. It was found that in
general, the material model gave a good prediction of the change in
crystallographic orientations for both the room temperature and high
temperature cases.
