Pyroxenite and nepheline-pyroxene rocks coexist with dolomite-bearing calcite marbles in Tazheran Massif the area of Lake Baikal, Siberia, Russia. Pyroxenites occur a continuous elongate zone between beerbachites (metamorphosed gabbro dolerites) 5 cm to 20 m fragments among marbles. Pyroxene pyroxenite is rich calcium alumina (5–12 wt% Al2O3) has fassaite composition. The may originate from maf...

In the wetting of a solid by a liquid it is often assumed that the substrate is rigid. However, for an elastic substrate the rigidity depends on the cube of its thickness and so reduces rapidly as the substrate becomes thinner as it approaches becoming a thin sheet. In such circumstances, it has been shown that the capillary forces caused by a contacting droplet of a liquid can shape the solid ...

Sequential pattern discovery is a well-studied field in data mining. Episodes are sequential patterns that describe events that often occur in the vicinity of each other. Episodes can impose restrictions on the order of the events, which makes them a versatile technique for describing complex patterns in the sequence. Most of the research on episodes deals with special cases such as serial and ...

The capillary rise technique has been used to experimentally study the “surface tension” of liquid marbles formed by encapsulating water droplets with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder of 1, 35, and 100 μm particle size. In a typical experiment, a glass capillary tube was inserted into a water marble to measure the capillary rise of the water. The Laplace pressure exerted by the water marbl...

The timing and process of exhumation the subcontinental peridotites Gibraltar Arc (Ronda, Beni Bousera) have been discussed extensively over last decades. In this work, we contribute to debate through first mapping, structural petrological analyses, SHRIMP U-Th-Pb dating high-grade marbles that crop out around Bousera antiform Alpujarrides-Sebtides units northern Rif (Morocco). These marbles, h...

We consider the formation of liquid marbles via impact onto powder beds. Experimentally we analyze how much surface drop is able to harvest and discover this determines threshold for marble formation. This motivates development first mathematical model process simulations based on qualitatively recover many features experiments, while also highlighting avenues future research.

the chadegan metamorphic complex is a wnw-ese- trending antiformal structure located in sanandaj-sirjan structural zone, iran.the inner core of the structure is made of orthogneiss, containing eclogitic lenses. schists and marbles lie structurally above theorthogneiss and crop out in the external limbs of the antiformal dome. two main deformational episodes have been documented in theschists an...

Portugal produces a great diversity of ornamental stones. Besides the internationally known white and pink marbles, also light cream limestones are produced, as well as grey, yellow and pink granites, and dark grey slates. A first exercise is presented on the evaluation of the available resources of ornamental stones in the whole Portuguese territory. The results show a total availability of 41...

A lateral dermoid cyst is a rare lesion of the floor of mouth, with only 12 cases reported in the literature. We describe the case of a 60-year-old man with a slowly enlarging mass in the submandibular region. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a lesion containing multiple uniformly rounded foci, creating a "sack-of-marbles" appearance. Needle aspirations showed atypical findings, and the ...
