Jurassic limestone and marl with rich fossil content are the characteristic rocks that dip below the Mittelland and appear again in the pre-Alps.
The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) has recognized several stages and their temporal equivalents (ages) on the basis of characteristic rocks and fossils; they are, from earliest to latest, the Ypresian, Lutetian, Bartonian, and the Priabonian.
present the distinct combination of Poisson ratio, elastic modulus and void ratio as characteristic input rock properties.
The post-peak mechanical characteristic of rock mass plays a leading role in stability of geotechnical engineering.
A dynamic elastoplastic damage constitutive model is proposed based on the failure characteristic of rock salt under seismic loads.
The AE characteristic of rock specimen under low σ2 is swarm type which is the main shock type under high σ2.
Brittleness is a key mechanical characteristic of rock and critical to various engineering practices particularly to design efficient fracturing stimulation of unconventional shale gas reservoirs.
Amplification of guitars to the highest levels of underpowered amplifiers created the over-driven guitar sound that would become characteristic of rock music.
