Landslide body is modeled using FEM with 3D volume elements, with large strains assumptions, and the soil mass properties are adopted according to the non-linear Drucker-Prager material formulation. The remaining soil region is assumed as boundary constrains. A special attention is devoted to the ...
The modified failure criterion of Drucker and Prager (2), which takes into account local pore fluid pressure is used as the criterion of bond failure (linked pair → unlinked pair) in pairs of interacting fluid-saturated discrete elements49. Note that the yield and failure criteria (1–2) ar...
The 'incretin effect' refers to the secretion of the insulin-promoting gut hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) from the K-cells of the small intestine following nutrient or food ingestion (Baggio & Drucker, 2007). In addition to their ...
Drucker,3 and Rémy Burcelin1 OBJECTIVE—Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a gut-brain hormone that regulates food intake, energy metabolism, and cardiovascular functions. In the brain, through a currently un- known molecular mechanism, it simultaneously reduces femoral artery blood flow and ...
within the rock matrix are solved with a fully coupled finite element and finite volume approach. The Drucker–Prager model with friction hardening is applied to simulate elastoplastic deformation and a multiphase fluid model with power-law correlations for relative permeability is used to model the ...
Drucker–Prager yield surface with a non-associated flow rule Full size image 3.2.2 Flow formulation with strain-rate-dependent residual strength The second constitutive model used in the present study is based on a strain-rate-dependent plasticity model introduced in [3]. Considering the Drucker–...

This simple hypothesis has a significance in the numerical analysis and also satisfies the Drucker [10] stability postulate for stable materials. However, as Stoughton [11] pointed out, the fact that fundamental theorems are rigorously proven based on the associated flow rule, does not imply that...
While Petri dishes are incubated under suitable conditions, antimicrobial agent diffuses into agar and inhibits germination and growth of the test microorganism. The diameter of inhibition growth zone is measured [36]. This method measures the release of antibacterial substances, but does not indicate...
