ARE UNUSUAL BACTERIA BECOMING COMMON CAUSATIVE AGENTS OF INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS?



Combining damage and fracture mechanics to model calving

Calving of icebergs is a major negative component of polar ice-sheet mass balance.Here we present a new calving model relying on both continuum damage mechanics and linear elastic fracture mechanics.This combination accounts for both the slow sub-critical surface crevassing Dresser and the rapid propagation of crevasses when calving occurs.First, d
