Sentence examples for crater function from inspiring English sources

The moments of the crater function also consist of an erosive and a dominating redistributive part.

Similar results have also been shown by the crater function theory of Norris et al. [19, 20].

The low-temperature interior of this crater functions as a cold trap that may capture and freeze volatiles shed during comet impacts on the Moon.

Absolute model ages are based on the crater production function of (Hartmann and Neukum 2001) with the crater chronology function from (Ivanov 2001).

Solid curves indicate the crater production function polynomial fitted to the observed CSFDs (Neukum, 1983; Neukum and Ivanov, 1994).

The encounter rates of bolides with Earth's atmosphere determined from satellite records and the small crater production function on the Moon appear to be in good agreement (e.g., Ivanov, 2006).

We assume that a lunar CSFD can be expressed by the following crater production function polynomial proposed by Neukum and co-workers (Neukum, 1983; Neukum and Ivanov, 1994), (1) where D is the crater diameter in kilometers and N(D) is the cumulative number of craters larger than D per km2.

However, the surface area of the crater is a function of the area upon which the stresses are concentrated, which again depend on the morphology of the root surface as discussed earlier [21].

From these tests the amount of material removed, depth of penetration, and profile of the formed crater are computed as a function of the abrasive water jet impingement angles.

The variation in depth, diameter and volume of the resulting craters is presented as a function of temperature.

The threshold fluence for ablation of the scaffold was found to be 0.06 J/cm2, and the morphology of the ablation craters was measured as a function of fluence.
