The Utilization of a Coupled Electro-Thermal-Mechanical Model of High-Voltage Electric Pulse on Rock Fracture.
Feng W, Rao P, Nimbalkar S, Chen Q, Cui J, Ouyang P. Feng W, et al. Materials (Basel). 2023 Feb 17;16(4):1693. doi: 10.3390/ma16041693. Materials (Basel). 2023. PMID: 36837322 Free PMC article.
Our research proposes a unique coupled electro-thermal-mechanical model that takes electric breakdown and heterogeneity into account to show the mechanism of rock fracturing under high-voltage electropulses. ...On the basis of electrical, thermal, and mechani …

Long-term effects of wildfire on rock weathering and soil stoniness in the Mediterranean landscapes.
Shtober-Zisu N, Wittenberg L. Shtober-Zisu N, et al. Sci Total Environ. 2021 Mar 25;762:143125. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.143125. Epub 2020 Oct 17. Sci Total Environ. 2021. PMID: 33172645
While earlier works suggested that increasing rock fragment cover is often associated with the removal of fine particles, our results showed a substantial increase in rock fragments due to fire-induced exfoliation of rock surfaces, leading to lo …

Thermal fatigue as the origin of regolith on small asteroids.
Delbo M, Libourel G, Wilkerson J, Murdoch N, Michel P, Ramesh KT, Ganino C, Verati C, Marchi S. Delbo M, et al. Nature. 2014 Apr 10;508(7495):233-6. doi: 10.1038/nature13153. Epub 2014 Apr 2. Nature. 2014. PMID: 24695219 Free article.
Therefore, impact debris cannot be the main source of regolith on small asteroids. Here we report that thermal fatigue, a mechanism of rock weathering and fragmentation with no subsequent ejection, is the dominant process governing regolith generation on smal …

Erosion of lunar surface rocks by impact processes: A synthesis.
Hörz F, Basilevsky AT, Head JW, Cintala MJ. Hörz F, et al. Planet Space Sci. 2020 Dec;194:105105. doi: 10.1016/j.pss.2020.105105. Epub 2020 Sep 25. Planet Space Sci. 2020. PMID: 33012847 Free PMC article. Review.
It is also important to note that impact produces a wide variety of fragment shapes that might totally overlap with those produced by thermal fatigue; we consider fragment shape to be an unreliable criterion for either process. ...Thermal fatigue, howe …

Infrared and thermal properties of lunar rock.
Bastin JA, Clegg PE, Fielder G. Bastin JA, et al. Science. 1970 Jan 30;167(3918):728-30. doi: 10.1126/science.167.3918.728. Science. 1970. PMID: 17781565
The infrared absorption properties of lunar rock throughout the range 2 to 2000 micrometers were investigated and, in addition, direct measurements of specific heat and thermal conductivity of rock samples were made. ...There is also evidence to suggest that, …

Magnetic properties of lunar dust and rock samples.
Helsley CE. Helsley CE. Science. 1970 Jan 30;167(3918):693-5. doi: 10.1126/science.167.3918.693. Science. 1970. PMID: 17781549
Determinations on 20-to 80-milligram portions of the rock samples and the -150 mesh fraction of the lunar dust show pronounced Curie points between 680 degrees and 780 degrees C. Remanent intensities of five rock fragments vary from 8.4 x 10(-5) to 0.30 X J0( …

Thermal vesiculation during volcanic eruptions.
Lavallée Y, Dingwell DB, Johnson JB, Cimarelli C, Hornby AJ, Kendrick JE, von Aulock FW, Kennedy BM, Andrews BJ, Wadsworth FB, Rhodes E, Chigna G. Lavallée Y, et al. Nature. 2015 Dec 24;528(7583):544-7. doi: 10.1038/nature16153. Nature. 2015. PMID: 26701056
The development of vesicularity also greatly reduces the 'strength' of magma, a material parameter controlling fragmentation and thus the explosive potential of the liquid rock. The development of vesicularity in magmas has until now been viewed (both thermodynamica …

Assessment of InSight Landing Site Predictions.
Golombek M, Kass D, Williams N, Warner N, Daubar I, Piqueux S, Charalambous C, Pike WT. Golombek M, et al. J Geophys Res Planets. 2020 Aug;125(8):e2020JE006502. doi: 10.1029/2020JE006502. Epub 2020 Aug 7. J Geophys Res Planets. 2020. PMID: 32999801 Free PMC article.
The smooth plains upon which the InSight landing site is located were accurately predicted to be generally similar to the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit landing site with relatively low rock abundance, low slopes, and a moderately dusty surface with a 3-10 m impact fragm …

Cambioni S, et al. Nature. 2021 Oct;598(7879):49-52. doi: 10.1038/s41586-021-03816-5. Epub 2021 Oct 6. Nature. 2021. PMID: 34616055
However, despite observations of processes that are capable of comminuting boulders into unconsolidated materials, such as meteoroid bombardment(6,7) and thermal cracking(8), Bennu and Ryugu lack extensive areas covered in subcentimetre particles(7,9). ...We interpret this …
