Time-dependent load-induced deformation of Ca(OH)2

Fission dynamics within time-dependent Hartree-Fock: deformation-induced fission

Studies of nuclear fission have been ongoing since the discovery of the process in 1938 by Hahn and Strassmann [1]. The actinide nuclide Pu has long been a case of interest, as spontaneous fission presents itself as a decay mechanism with significant probability, relative to other isotopes in the actinide region. This allows for quantitative comparisons between spontaneous and induced fission [...

Time dependent transformations in deformation quantization

We study the action of time dependent canonical and coordinate transformations in phase space quantum mechanics. We extend the covariant formulation of the theory by providing a formalism that is fully invariant under both standard and time dependent coordinate transformations. This result considerably enlarges the set of possible phase space representations of quantum mechanics and makes it po...

Creep: Time‐dependent brittle deformation in rocks

Time-dependent changes of autophagy and apoptosis in lipopolysaccharide-induced rat acute lung injury

Objective(s): Abnormal lung cell death including autophagy and apoptosis is the central feature in acute lung injury (ALI). To identify the cellular mechanisms and the chronology by which different types of lung cell death are activated during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI, we decided to evaluate autophagy (by LC3-II and autophagosome) and apoptosis (by caspase-3) at different time point...

Description of Time-dependent Deformation in Sedimentary Rocks

This paper deals with formulation of constitutive relations describing the time-dependent deformation in sedimentary rocks. In contrast to classical viscoplasticity, the creep effects are attributed here to a progressive evolution of material microstructure. First, an internal variable monitoring the degradation process is introduced followed by presentation of a general framework of chemo-plas...
