  • Activity 21: Cleavage and Fracture Maine Geological Survey
    Activity 21: Cleavage and Fracture Maine Geological Survey Objectives: Students will recognize the difference between cleavage and fracture; they will become familiar with planes of cleavage, and will use a mineral's "habit of breaking" as an aid to identifying common minerals. Time: This activity is intended to take one-half (1/2) period to discuss cleavage planes and types and one (1) class period to do the activity. Background: Cleavage is the property of a mineral that allows it to break smoothly along specific internal planes (called cleavage planes) when the mineral is struck sharply with a hammer. Fracture is the property of a mineral breaking in a more or less random pattern with no smooth planar surfaces. Since nearly all minerals have an orderly atomic structure, individual mineral grains have internal axes of length, width, and depth, related to the consistent arrangement of the atoms. These axes are reflected in the crystalline pattern in which the mineral grows and are present in the mineral regardless of whether or not the sample shows external crystal faces. The axes' arrangement, size, and the angles at which these axes intersect, all help determine, along with the strength of the molecular bonding in the given mineral, the degree of cleavage the mineral will exhibit. Many minerals, when struck sharply with a hammer, will break smoothly along one or more of these planes. The degree of smoothness of the broken surface and the number of planes along which the mineral breaks are used to describe the cleavage. The possibilities include the following. Number of Planes Degree of Smoothness One Two Three Perfect Good Poor Thus a mineral's cleavage may be described as perfect three plane cleavage, in which case the mineral breaks with almost mirror-like surfaces along the three dimensional axes; the mineral calcite exhibits such cleavage.

  • Scaling of Critical Velocity for Bubble Raft Fracture Under Tension Chin
    Scaling of critical velocity for bubble raft fracture under tension Chin-Chang Kuo, and Michael Dennin1, a) Department of Physics and Astronomy and Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter, University of California at Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697-4575 (Dated: 9 September 2011) The behavior of materials under tension is a rich area of both fluid and solid mechanics. For simple fluids, the breakup of a liquid as it is pulled apart generally exhibits an instability driven, pinch-off type behavior. In contrast, solid materials typically exhibit various forms of fracture under tension. The interaction of these two distinct failure modes is of particular interest for complex fluids, such as foams, pastes, slurries, etc.. The rheological properties of complex fluids are well-known to combine features of solid and fluid behavior, and it is unclear how this translates to their failure under tension. In this paper, we present experimental results for a model complex fluid, a bubble raft. As expected, the system exhibits both pinch-off and fracture when subjected to elongation under constant velocity. We report on the critical velocity vc below which pinch-off occurs and above which fracture occurs as a function of initial system width W , length L, bubble size R, and fluid viscosity. The fluid viscosity sets the typical time for bubble rearrangements τ. The results for the critical velocity are consistent with a simple scaling law vcτ=L ∼ R=W that is based on the assumption that fracture is nucleated by the failure of local bubble rearrangements to occur rapidly enough. a)Corresponding Author email: [email protected] 1 I.

  • Methods Used to Identifying Minerals
    METHODS USED TO IDENTIFYING MINERALS More than 4,000 minerals are known to man, and they are identified by their physical and chemical properties. The physical properties of minerals are determined by the atomic structure and crystal chemistry of the minerals. The most common physical properties are crystal form, color, hardness, cleavage, and specific gravity. CRYSTALS One of the best ways to identify a mineral is by examining its crystal form (external shape). A crystal is defined as a homogenous solid possessing a three-dimensional internal order defined by the lattice structure. Crystals developed under favorable conditions often exhibit characteristic geometric forms (which are outward expressions of the internal arrangements of atoms), crystal class, and cleavage. Large, well- developed crystals are not common because of unfavorable growth conditions, but small crystals recognizable with a hand lens or microscope are common. Minerals that show no external crystal form but possess an internal crystalline structure are said to be massive. A few minerals, such as limonite and opal, have no orderly arrangement of atoms and are said to be amorphous. Crystals are divided into six major classes based on their geometric form: isometric, tetragonal, hexagonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic, and triclinic. The hexagonal system also has a rhombohedral subdivision, which applies mainly to carbonates. CLEAVAGE AND FRACTURE After minerals are formed, they have a tendency to split or break along definite planes of weakness. This property is called cleavage. These planes of weakness are closely related to the internal structure of the mineral, and are usually, but not always, parallel to crystal faces or possible crystal faces.

  • Does Human Sexual Dimorphism Influence Fracture Frequency, Types and Distribution?
    AnthropologicAl review • Vol. 74, 13–23 (2011) Does human sexual dimorphism influence fracture frequency, types and distribution? Jonna Nielsen ADBOU, Forensic Institute, University of Southern Denmark, Lucernemarken 20, Dk-5260 Odense, Denmark; E-mail [email protected] ABSTRACT This study explores the hypothesis that the pattern of gender inequality in a community influences the frequency, patterns and distribution of fractures. As it is not possible to read gender relations from skeletons, it is – following several research results – assumed that the level of gender inequality is reflected in sexual dimorphism. Thus the study design consists in correlating a measure of sexual dimorphism with measures of frequencies, patterns and distribution of skeletal trauma between the two sexes. Nearly two hundreds individuals from two medieval Danish cemeteries have been examined (43 females/48 males from Jutland and 46 females/49 males from Funen). Sexual dimorphism was assessed by means of measurements on the pelvis and, in accordance with conventional wisdom, the level of sexual dimorphism was found to be lower in the Funen than in the Jutland sample. The fracture frequencies, patterns and distribution were estimated for the two skeletal samples. No significant difference between the fracture frequencies or types on the two sites was found, but the distribution of fractures between the sexes in Ribe was found to be significantly different. The study indicates a level of relationship between human sexual dimorphism, gender roles, and the distribution of fractures between the sexes. Studies of larger samples will help clarify this. KEY WORDS: interpretation of injuries, gender roles, medieval Denmark Studies of old skeletal remains often in- them having been controlled by beating by dicate a relatively high fracture frequency their men and thus that these women were in ancient communities compared to more socially inferior to men.

The effects of the fractures on the microstructure of quartz are also studied. Alpha quartz, subjected to shear stress, is quickly crushed according to a fracturing sequence, with a total fracture length that is correlated to the stress rate. The shear stress generates a sequence of macro and microstructural events, in particular localized melting phenomena, never highlighted before on quartz and the formation of different polymorphs, such as cristobalite and tridymite together with amorphous silica.

  • Fluid-Structure Interaction in Bluff-Body Aerodynamics and Long-Span Bridge Design: Phenomena and Methods
    Fluid-Structure Interaction in Bluff-Body Aerodynamics and Long-Span Bridge Design: Phenomena and Methods G. Morgenthal CUED/D-STRUCT/TR.187 University of Cambridge Department of Engineering Technical Report No. CUED/D-Struct/TR.187 Fluid-Structure Interaction in Bluff-Body Aerodynamics and Long-Span Bridge Design: Phenomena and Methods by Guido Morgenthal Magdalene College August 2000 Introduction Page 3 ABSTRACT The interaction between a fluid flow and an embedded elastic bluff body is extremely complex. Different response modes and flow phenomena exist depending on the flow characteristics, the body geometry and the structural properties like stiffness and damping. This poses a particular challenge to the development of analytical and numerical models and renders experimental methods still the most reliable tool. This report aims at introducing the various phenomena and at reviewing the most important analytical and numerical methods of analysis. It is largely based on a literature survey which has been carried out in preparation for a PhD degree on numerical methods for fluid-structure interaction analysis in long-span bridge design at the University of Cambridge.
