Figure 8.2. Target configuration for dynamic tensile fracture experiments on rock. PMMA buffers and windows were not used on those rocks with an acoustic impedance comparable to PMMA. Velocity for these tests was measured at the rock-free surface. Figure 8.2. Target configuration for dynamic tensile fracture experiments on rock.

Although freeze-fracture experiments have demonstrated that monomers are assembled into stable tetramers in the membranes, radiation inactivation studies and, later, expression studies revealed that each monomer is a functional water channel (Fig. lc). [Pg.215]

The properties of glassy polymers such as density, thermal expansion, and small-strain deformation are mainly determined by the van der Waals interaction of adjacent molecular segments. On the other hand, crack growth depends on the length of the molecular strands in the network as is deduced from the fracture experiments. [Pg.346]

In the first two tests of a series of three explosive fracturing experiments, well 3 was used to inject and displace 100 and 300 qt of NG1 in the depth intervals from 70 to 74 ft. Continuous sampling of surrounding... [Pg.106]

During the second step of the fracturing experiments at this site, 60% dynamite was detonated in the five wells to relieve stress conditions in the block of oil shale. Each of the wells in the 25- by 25-ft five-spot pattern was loaded with 45-lb charges of 60% dynamite on detonating cord with electric caps attached and detonated simultaneously (shot B). [Pg.110]

Gc can be measured directly from fracture experiments by detecting crack initiation and measuring the work in initiating the crack. [Pg.299]

A molecular transition model involving the -relaxation in PMMA has been first put forward by Johnson and Radon They explained the transition in crack speed behavior based on a correlation between the temperature dependence of a time to failure inferred from fracture experiments and the temperature variation of the reciprocal frequency of the P-relaxation peak. They thus assumed that the crack transition is caused when the P-process is fully active. Also the fracture mechanics parameter K, governing the transition from slow to fast crack growth, shows a time and temperature dependence equal to that of the p-transition... [Pg.182]

Note that LHCll is a separate light-harvesting complex, which supplements the inner antennae (CP29, CP26, CP24 and CP22) associated with the PS-II complex. The presence of this separate LHC II complex has been confirmed by the results of freeze-fracture experiments obtained with thylakoid membranes of both wild-type and mutant plants. The PS-11 inner antenna complex and the LHC-II complex appear as distinctly different classes of membrane particles. On the other hand, the LHC-I proteins associated with the PS-1 complex appear to be complexed to the PS-1 reaction center, much as the inner antennae of PS II are complexed to the PS-II reaction center. [Pg.32]

Experimental investigation on aqueous phospholipid solutions showed that, unlike the triglyceride solutions previously used, the phospholipids can form a bilayer in which all of the exposed surfaces are hyckophilic. This structural arrangement reduces the surface tension with no requirement for a surface protein coat. Freeze-fracture experiments indicated that proteins were actually embedded in membranes as globular units rather than extended on membrane surfaces. [Pg.91]

A major hydraulic fracturing experiment was performed in September and October 1993 at Soultz-sous-Forets. In the September test, 25,000 m of fresh water were injected between 2850-3350 m at progressively higher rates to 40 1/s and pressures of up to 10 MPa over a 17 day period. In October, a further 20,000 m of water were injected at up to 50 l/s into the entire open hole section. Through the test, it was demonstrated that the fracture network in the basement rock was well developed, with enhanced permeability and a substantial increase in transmissivity (Baria et al., 1999 Evans, 2000). [Pg.75]

Another critical value is that necessary to break all the molecules crossing a plane, in the absence of any other energy-absorbing processes. This minimum energy requirement for mechanical rupture is found to be about 50 J/m it is treated in the following section. Finally, there are the considerably larger values found in normal fracture experiments, ranging from 100 to 100,000 J/m. These are described in Section 10.5. [Pg.481]

Healing efficiency was also measured by carefully controlled fracture experiments for both the virgin and the healed materials using a well established protocol [5]. [Pg.290]

The fracture experiments were conducted on single lap shear joints with an overlap length of 1.27 cm, bond area of... [Pg.301]

In a series of fracture experiments on ceramic specimens, two important observations can be made, namely that the probabflity of failure increases with the load amplitude, and also with the size of the specimens [2-4,14]. This strength-size effect is the most prominent and relevant consequence of the statistical behavior of the strength of brittle materials. However, these observations carmot be explained in a deterministic way by using a simple model of a single crack in an elastic body rather, their interpretation requires an understanding of the behavior of many cracks distributed throughout a material. [Pg.545]
