The geochemistry and geomicrobiology of relict hydrothermal sulphide deposits
… sediments are capped with a ~30cm thick layer of carbonate-rich (~60% CaCO<sub>3</sub>), Fe-stained sediments. Two distinct sulphide layers, interbedded with Fe-oxysilicates, and overlain by a thin layerof Fe/Mn oxyhydroxides, were found in this core. The dominant mineral-phase in both …

Verification of the dissipated energy based fatigue model using field data
Damage can be limited to the top layer in perpetual pavements through the use of a very thick surface layer or a binder-rich intermediate layer. To achieve this goal, tensile strains at the bottom of the top hot-mix asphalt (HMA) layer must be limited to below a certain value known as the fatigue …
