MECHANISMS OF SILICA FRACTURE IN AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SOLUTIONS

Mechanisms of Silica Fracture in Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

Glassy silicates are substantially weaker when in contact with aqueous electrolyte solutions than in vacuum due to chemical interactions with preexisting cracks.To investigate this silicate weakening phenomenon, classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of silica fracture were performed using the bond-order based, lochby venture pouch reactive

Sampling Procedure for Establishing Criteria for Sea Urchin (Loxechinus albus) Proportion under the Legal Minimum Length of landings

Sea urchin (Loxechinus albus) is one of the most economically important species in the northeast of Chilean Patagonia, forming part of the highly diverse benthic community.This resource is being harvested under selective fishing pressure, which suppresses growth rates.In response, the National Standards Institute established Regulation 44 as a qual
