A finite strain theory of elastoplasticity and its application to wave propagation
… region of admissible stresses, and the normality law. The overall effects of plastic behaviour are contained in the theory through the presence of one or more internal variables. The thermodynamic restrictions of the second law together with the use of results of convex analysis lead in a natural …

Flow Properties of Moine Thrust Zone Mylonites in Northern Assynt, NW Scotland
… techniques designed for investigating the flow processes by which rock deformation occurred. These analytical techniques were applied to a suite of samples from the footwall and hangingwall of the Moine thrust exposed along the Allt Pol aâ Mhadaich stream located in the northern part of the …

Quantitative modeling and analysis with FMC-QE
… stationary processes and is based on fundamental laws of the performance analysis: Little's Law and the Forced Traffic Flow Law. Little's Law is used within the different hierarchical levels (horizontal) and the Forced Traffic Flow Law is the key to the dependencies among the hierarchical levels …

Relating surface and bed properties of Antarctic ice streams
Theoretical models predict that fast-flowing ice streams transmit information about their bedrock topography most efficiently to the surface for two distinct windows of length-scales. Previous studies have shown a good transfer for basal undulations with wavelengths longer than 103 ice thicknesses. …

Processes of Progressive Deformation with Applications to Jointing, Faulting and Fluid Flow
… evaluating the deformed rocks as media for fluid flow or reservoir. Knowledge about development and evolution of specific fractures and fluid flow through them can then be applied to deformation processes in general in order to help improving our understanding of, as well as highlighting …

Piezometry and Strain Rate Estimates Along Mid-Crustal Shear Zones
… rates estimated with quartz dislocation creep flow laws are tectonically reasonable, between 10⁻¹² – 10⁻¹⁴ s⁻¹. Traced towards each shear zone strain rate estimates first decrease one order of magnitude before rapidly increasing one to two orders of magnitude at structural distances of ~ 200 m. …

Remote sensing for geomorphic and hydrodynamic modeling and process understanding
… context of features that are expected to affect flow in the floodplain. Chapter 3 consists of a study that focuses on characterizing and developing geomorphic understanding of aeolian dunefields along the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, USA. These 58 dunefields were formed by pre-dam floods …

Internet content control in Australia : data topology, topography and the data deficit
The success of the online adult industry has provoked a public policy controversy over the need for internet censorship, and in recent times there has emerged desire to protect minors from possibly unsuitable content. On January 1st 2000, the Broadcasting Services Amendment (Online Services) Act …
