“…By extension also, the soil constitutive applications were reviewed on the bases of: single discipline dealing with soil mechanical properties constitutive modeling which included slope stability problems, bearing capacity, settlement of foundations, earth pressure problems, soil dynamics, soil structure interaction, thermal and hydrological conditions; bi-discipline (coupled problems) which solve problems related to thermomechanical (freeze/thaw conditions), smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and hydromechanical (consolidation, collapse and liquefaction) conditions in soils and rocks and multi-discipline constitutive models which solve complex problems related to thermo-hydromechanical (THM) conditions in soils and rocks. …”

“…Emissivity and reflectance spectra have been investigated on two series of silicate glasses, having compositions belonging to alkaline and subalkaline series, covering the most common terrestrial igneous rocks. Glasses were synthesized starting from natural end-members outcropping at Vulcano Island (Aeolian Islands, Italy) and on Snake River Plain (USA). …”

“…In the case of integral-breadth analysis, crystal shapes which scatter more intensity into the central peak of the rocking curve have lower size errors. For Fourier-decomposition analysis, crystals which have non-uniform distributions of chord lengths exhibit nonlinearities in the initial ranges of the normalized Fourier cosine coefficient versus column length (|A ( L )| versus L) plots, even when the entire rocking curve is used in the decomposition. …”
