(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Since 1921, several experimental methods have been implemented to measure the Griffith fracture energy. The challenge lies in providing a measure that is intrinsic and invariant with respect to external factors such as ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Steroidal estrogens are potent endocrine disrupting chemicals that are naturally excreted by vertebrates (e.g., humans and fish) and can enter natural waters through the discharge of treated and raw sewage. Because estrogens ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Sediment transport is of crucial importance to engineering projects in coastal regions, so it is of primary interest in coastal engineering. The driving forces for sediment transport are mostly determined by the hydrodynamics ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Fracture mechanics has been used for many years to study the mechanical behavior of brittle and quasi-brittle materials like concrete, rock, wood, and ceramics. To date, the application of fracture mechanics to soils has ...
