V. — Vein-Quartz and Sands

a comparison between the undrained shear behavior of carbonate and quartz sands

compared to quartz sand, the shear behavior of carbonate sand differs in  appearance, origin, and kind. carbonate sand is found mainly in the northern coast of the persian gulf and the oman sea. in this research, a comparison is made between the shear behavior of carbonate sand retrieved from the eastern region of the chabahar port, located north of the oman sea, and quartz sand obtained from f...

Combined Radionuclide Phlebography and V/Q scan in the assessment of iliac vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism – A case report establishing a cause and effect relationship

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important life threatening condition that is difficult to diagnose, particularly in the early stages. Looking for DVT in lower limb can be considered ancillary in suspected cases of pulmonary embolism (PE) indirectly highlighting a cause and effect relationship of a single disease (i.e cause being DVT and effect is the assault on the lung vasculature). Prompt an...

Investigation of mineralization, alteration, and fluid inclusions of the Takht-e-Gonbad copper deposit (northeast of Sirjan, SE Iran)

The Takht-e-Gonbad copper mineralization is located about 63 km of northeast of Sirjan city. Hypogene mineralization occurred as stockwork vein-veinlets and thick quartz veins hosted by Oligo-Miocene micro-granodiorite body and Eocene pyroclastic materials (mainly tuff with intermediate composition). The stockwork vein-veinlets contain three generations of mineralization, (1) quartz + magnetite...

A Constitutive Model for Sands

In this paper, an elastoplastic constitutive model is presented for predicting sandy soil behavior under monotonic and cyclic loadings. The model is based on the CJS3 model that takes into account deviatoric and isotropic mechanisms of plasticity. The flow rule in deviatoric mechanism is non-associated and a kinematic hardening law controls the evolution of the yield surface. In the present s...
