Predisposing Risk Factors Associated With Stress Fracture Development In Division I Cross Country Runners
… that could be associated with increased stress fracture development in division one collegiate cross country runners. Participants for this study consisted of 42 collegiate cross country runners at the University of Mississippi. A nutritional assessment consisting of a 3-day food record and …

Solving three-dimensional problems in natural and hydraulic fracture development : insight from displacement discontinuity modeling
Although many fracture models are based on two-dimensional plane strain approximations, accurately predicting fracture propagation geometry requires accounting for the three-dimensional aspects of fractures. In this study, we implemented 3-D displacement discontinuity (DD) boundary element modeling …

Iniciação e propagação de fraturas induzidas por injeções em solos argilosos com canalículos: aplicação ao tratamento do solo residual de fundação da barragem de terra da UHE Balbina
… for the initiation and the propagation phases of fracture development, aiming at the understanding of the whole phenomena, known the involved parameters and their influence on the process. Experimental data obtained at Balbina applied to the theoretical solutions permitted to estimate the …

Geomechanical Stability Analysis for Co2 Sequestration in Carbonate Formation
… poroelasticity tests, point load tests, and fracture toughness tests, etc, were conducted on Indiana limestone and Pierre shale to investigate the effects of CO2 sequestration on storage rock and caprock. Numerical simulations using finite difference method of FLAC3D were also conducted to …

Fracture mechanics of volcanic eruptions
… produced by a failure model based on fundamental fracture mechanics, applied to a volcanic setting. In addition to the time series of earthquake activity, statistical measures such as seismic b-value are also analysed and compared with corresponding data from the field and laboratory studies. A …

Evolution of basal channels, ice fracture, and surface meltwater, and implications for the stability of the Roi Baudouin Ice Shelf
… of intensified flexural stresses that encourage fracture initiation and possible subsequent calving. Further to this, the formation of surface rivers within the hydrostatic reflections of basal channels has been observed to increase the vulnerability of ice shelves to hydrofracture and/or …

Geomechanical property changes with hydrous pyrolysis in Mahogany oil shale in Green River Formation
… results in pore volume expansion, which causes fracture development and most often the failure of the sample. The behavior of resistivity tends to be dependent on the amount of organic matter expelled during the thermal maturation as well as the amount of organic matter withheld in the core …
