Use of phase angle in lieu of critical crack tip opening displacement for asphalt binder specification
… Tension (DENT) test was performed to measure the ductile strain tolerance in the presence of critical tensile stresses. Subsequently, DENT parameters of binders were compared with limiting temperatures where the phase angle reached either 30° or 45° to check for a possible correlation. The results …

Structural evolution of the Max Meadows thrust sheet, Southwest Virginia
… developed in progressive simple shear near the ductile-to-brittle transition. Heterogeneous simple shear (γ < 3) was localized in incompetent, anisotropic pelitic rocks (Rome Formation) along the base of a composite, 5-11 km. thick thrust sheet. Folds, which vary from upright and open to …

EXPLORING THE MASTER CURVE PARAMETERS FOR EFFICIENT PERFORMANCE GRADING OF ASPHALT BINDERS FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
… Tension (DENT) test is used to measure the ductile strain tolerance. These tests are time consuming and require a larger sample quantity, even though they are rigorous and accurate. Hence, the study also evaluated the feasibility of using DSR indicators at different cooling rates as an …

Complex Crustal Stratification Within the Chugach Mountains, Southern Alaska
<p>Strain within the crust is accommodated along vertical gradients, but a general characterization is difficult given the heterogeneity of the earth's outermost layer. The western termination of the Chugach metamorphic complex in southern Alaska includes a uniquely well exposed crustal section …
