Evolution of accessory bones in cetacean skull coupled with decreasing rate of ossification of cranial sutures by Valeriia Telizhenko, Pavel Gol’din

“…A strong phylogenetic signal was found for both suture ossification rate and accessory bone presence. Cetaceans were shown to have a lower ossification rate than most terrestrial artiodactyls, except deer (Cervidae) and mouse deer (Tragulidae), which showed somewhat similar patterns. …”

The slip-rate, state-, temperature-, and normal-stress-dependence of fault frictionKey points by Sylvain Barbot

“…The mechanics of slow-slip events and earthquakes is controlled by the constitutive behavior of rocks in active fault zones, which is sensitive to many factors encompassing lithology, temperature, confining and pore-fluid pressure, and slip-rate, among others. Understanding the frictional properties of faults is crucial to predicting many aspects of the seismic cycle, from the source characteristics and recurrence patterns of earthquakes to the mechanics of remote triggering. …”

Study on energy evolution and crack propagation of filling mortar-rock at different loading rates. by Hanqiu Wang, Chengyong Liu, Yuyi Wu, Yuhua Guan, Tongde Zhao

“…However, when shotcrete becomes tightly bonded with rock masses, the energy evolution and crack initiation mechanisms between the two materials exhibit remarkable complexity. Different loading rates significantly alter the internal stress distribution and deformation characteristics within the composite system, thereby influencing the patterns of energy evolution and crack propagation. …”
