Crystal size distribution (CSD) in metamorphic rocks provide fundamental information about crystal nucleation and growth rate, growth time and the degree of overstepping. CSD data for garnet, staurolite, kyanite and andalusite crystals from the aureole demonstrate that the earliest formed of these minerals, garnet, has the highest population density and the shortest growth time. The last formed...

background: silicon hydrogel bandage contact lenses are used to enhance epithelial healing, control surface-generated pain, and prevent epithelial erosions after refractive surgery. considering the importance of faster reepithelialization in preventing complications of photorefractive keratectomy (prk) and the fact that the features and specifications of these commercially-available lenses are ...

the effect of geometry and material of the micro/nano particle on contact mechanic for manipulation was studied in this work based on atomic force microscopy. hertz contact model simulation for eph biological micro particle with spherical, cylindrical, and circular crowned roller shape was used to investigate the effect of geometry on contact simulation process in manipulation. then, to validat...

In the Western Sangilen (Tuva–Mongolia microcontinent, Central Asian Orogenic Belt, Russia) rare mineral ferrohögbomite-2S2N, for first time, was found in a deep-seated contact aureole of early Paleozoic Bayan-Kol gabbro-monzodiorite intrusion. The rocks are diatexites roof pendant, where metamorphics gabbronorite. Diatexites formed as result strong melting and desilication quartz-bearing kyani...

abstract: in the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for contact cr-warped product to be contact cr-product in kenmotsu space forms.

The P-T conditions of both equilibria were determined precisely by reversal experiments in a piston-cylinder apparatus. On the basis of 8 experiments, brackets for the rutile-magnesite-geikielite equilibrium are 7.0–7.1 kbar at 800 ∞C, 8.6–8.7 kbar at 850 ∞C, and 10.5–10.7 kbar at 900 ∞C. On the basis of 9 experiments, brackets for the zircon-magnesite-baddeleyite-forsterite equilibrium are 7.1...

In the Jebilet massif (Variscan belt, Morocco), two peraluminous granodioritic plutons (the Eastern and Central plutons) are spatially associated with a regional shear zone. The pluton includes Tabouchent, Bramram Bamega intrusions, which represent variably eroded portions of an arcuate apical part pluton. intrusions composed biotite ± cordierite-bearing granodiorite that is crosscut by tourmal...
