This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of the St. Peter Sandstone The writer feels that some significance attaches to the fact that the conclusions finally adopted were entirely contrary to the preconceived ideas held when the study was begun. There was no prejudice whatever in favor of the interpretation pre sented in the present paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Treatise on Geochemistry written by and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2013-10-19 with total page 14787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extensively updated new edition of the widely acclaimed Treatise on Geochemistry has increased its coverage beyond the wide range of geochemical subject areas in the first edition, with five new volumes which include: the history of the atmosphere, geochemistry of mineral deposits, archaeology and anthropology, organic geochemistry and analytical geochemistry. In addition, the original Volume 1 on "Meteorites, Comets, and Planets" was expanded into two separate volumes dealing with meteorites and planets, respectively. These additions increased the number of volumes in the Treatise from 9 to 15 with the index/appendices volume remaining as the last volume (Volume 16). Each of the original volumes was scrutinized by the appropriate volume editors, with respect to necessary revisions as well as additions and deletions. As a result, 27% were republished without major changes, 66% were revised and 126 new chapters were added. In a many-faceted field such as Geochemistry, explaining and understanding how one sub-field relates to another is key. Instructors will find the complete overviews with extensive cross-referencing useful additions to their course packs and students will benefit from the contextual organization of the subject matter Six new volumes added and 66% updated from 1st edition. The Editors of this work have taken every measure to include the many suggestions received from readers and ensure comprehensiveness of coverage and added value in this 2nd edition The esteemed Board of Volume Editors and Editors-in-Chief worked cohesively to ensure a uniform and consistent approach to the content, which is an amazing accomplishment for a 15-volume work (16 volumes including index volume)!
Download or read book Sandstone Landforms written by Robert W. Young and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-09 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sandstones form the backdrop to some of the world's most spectacular scenery, and are found all over the planet and in all climates. Following on from the authors' successful 1992 book, this is the only volume that considers sandstone landforms from a truly global perspective. It describes the wide variety of landforms that are found in sandstone, and discusses the role of lithological variation, chemical weathering and erosional processes in creating these features, with examples drawn from around the world. Climatic and tectonic constraints on the development of sandstone landscapes are also considered. This volume provides a comprehensive assessment of the literature from publications in a range of languages, and is illustrated with over 130 photographs of sandstone features from every continent. It presents a holistic account of sandstone terrain for researchers and graduate students in a variety of fields including geography, geomorphology, sedimentology and geomechanics.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The St. Peter Sandstone is significantly different from the minerals and rocks which have been studied extensively in mining. It is brittle and characterized by an unusually high friction angle. On the other hand it is friable, and it is nearly cohesionless. The scarcity of the ground control techniques for this particular mining environment has created many difficulties for mine operators. This research aims to establish a fundamental understanding of the basic mechanical and strength properties of the St. Peter Sandstone for engineering design and scientific research. The specific objectives are 1) characterizing the strength of the St. Peter Sandstone, and 2) elucidating the strength mechanics by scientific evidences. The study is essential for developing safe and reliable ground control techniques for mining under this sandstone condition. In this study, extensive conventional rock mechanics testing, as well as a detailed particle structure including optical and scanning electron microscopies studies was carried out on St. Peter Sandstone. An appropriate sample preparation technique for St. Peter Sandstone is proposed. The optimum specimen size for characterizing St. Peter Sandstone was determined. The mechanical behavior of St. Peter Sandstone was investigated under triaxial compressive condition. The results indicated that confining pressure will significantly increase the strength and change the mechanical behavior of St. Peter Sandstone from brittle to ductile. The particle structure of St. Peter Sandstone was studied in terms of porosity, particle size distribution, and density. It was demonstrated that the mechanical and strength properties of the St. Peter Sandstone are fundamentally governed by its particle structure. The systematic presence of Hertzian fractures on the St. Peter Sandstone particle structures were obtained, identified and demonstrated. The finding provides direct evidence to resolve outstanding issues regarding the depositional environment of the St. Peter Sandstone. It was indicated that Hertzian fractures were not the product of eolian action. The contact surface of St. Peter's sand grains was investigated. It was found that the majority of contact surfaces are smooth. Hence, the high friction angle of St. Peter Sandstone cannot be attributed to "penetrative surfaces" as hypothesized by locked sand theory"--Abstract, page iii.
Download or read book Stable Isotope Geochemistry written by Jochen Hoefs and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stable Isotope Geochemistry is an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the geosciences. For students and scientists alike the book will be a primary source of information with regard to how and where stable isotopes can be used to solve geological problems. It is subdivided into three parts: i) theoretical and experimental principles, ii) fractionation processes of light and heavy elements, iii) the natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. In the last decade, major advances in multicollector-ICP-mass-spectrometry enable the precise determination of a wide range of transition and heavy elements. Progress in analysing the rare isotopes of certain elements allows the distinction between mass-dependent and mass-independent fractionations. These major advances in analytical techniques make an extended new edition necessary. Special emphasis has been given to the growing field of “non-traditional” isotope systems. Many new references have been added, which will enable quick access to recent literature.
