Fissures

This CD contains a 30-page report and 37-photo appendix of an investigation by the Utah Geological Survey of five recently discovered earth fissures in southwestern Utah. The earth fissues, which likely resulted from aquifer compaction due to ground-water withdrawal, were revealed after floodwater infiltrated into and enlarged the fissures during January 2005. This study discusses the geology and hydrology of the Escalante Valley where the fissures formed, includes maps of the fissure traces, discusses the most probable cause of fissure formation, and presents recommendations for future study. 30 pages + 37 page appendix

** Includes FREE Audio Book and Cheat Sheets Guide ** Sam Summers, author of 'Healing An Anal Fissure' is a self-confessed fanatic when it comes to nutrition, health and fitness. One day, in his early 40's and en route to a Christmas party, he found himself in immense pain... Sam took a painkiller to give himself relief at the Christmas party and briefly forgot about the problem. The next morning reality struck when Sam visited the bathroom and experienced an excruciatingly painful bowel movement. The same thing happened the next day... and the day after that too. After much research (and panic), the author discovered that he was suffering from an anal fissure. This came as a shock: Sam's entire lifestyle was focused around being healthy. "So how could this have happened?", he wondered. What followed was a journey of despair, hopelessness and suffering until the author ultimately found a cure for his fissure. Today, he wants to share this information with you. "This book provides an honest account of how someone with enough determination can find a cure to a debilitating condition without having to resort to surgery" - Dr Dev Lall, Private Practice Expert Sometimes What Works For Others May Not Work For You. * Are you frustrated with traditional medical advice? * Are you living in constant dread of your next bowel movement? * Is your social life, family life and work affected by your condition? In this action-oriented book you'll discover the secrets that a regular guy in his 40's used to nurse himself back to full health after living in fear, shame and embarrassment for many months because of a chronic anal fissure.

This 116-page report presents the results of an investigation by the Utah Geological Survey of land subsidence and earth fissures in Cedar Valley, Iron County, Utah. Basin-fill sediments of the Cedar Valley Aquifer contain a high percentage of fine-grained material susceptible to compaction upon dewatering. Groundwater discharge in excess of recharge (groundwater mining) has lowered the potentiometric surface in Cedar Valley as much as 114 feet since 1939. Groundwater mining has caused permanent compaction of fine-grained sediments of the Cedar Valley aquifer, which has caused the land surface to subside, and a minimum of 8.3 miles of earth fissures to form. Recently acquired interferometric synthetic aperture radar imagery shows that land subsidence has affected approximately 100 mi² in Cedar Valley, but a lack of accurate historical benchmark elevation data over much of the valley prevents its detailed quantification. Continued groundwater mining and resultant subsidence will likely cause existing fissures to lengthen and new fissures to form which may eventually impact developed areas in Cedar Valley. This report also includes possible aquifer management options to help mitigate subsidence and fissure formation, and recommended guidelines for conducting subsidence-related hazard investigations prior to development.

Les objectifs de la mécanique de la rupture sont double, d'une part ils concernent la description des champs mécaniques au voisinage de la pointe de la fissure et les énergies qui leur sont associées et d'autre part, ils traitent de l'évaluation de la nocivité d'une fissure en terme de la propagation de celle-ci. Deux champs d'étude constituent la structure de cet ouvrage, l'un relatif à la modélisation de la singularité induite par la pointe d'une fissure qui est relatée dans le premier tome intitulé : Modélisation des champs mécaniques en pointe de fissure et des singularités. Après un premier volume intitulé "Mécanique de la rupture par fissuration", ce deuxième tome traite des critères de propagation et de bifurcation de fissure en milieu élastique et élastoplastique sous des chargements monotones (Rupture fragile) et dynamique (Rupture par Fatigue). Les solutions analytiques obtenues ne peuvent pas être utilisées dans les structures à géométrie et conditions aux limites variées, alors il sera nécessaire de faire appel aux méthodes d'analyse numérique et plus particulièrement à la méthode des éléments finis. Deux chapitres abordent ces applications numériques : l'un, en tome I, relatif à l'introduction au calcul par éléments finis des structures fissurées et l'autre, dans le tome II traitant de la prévision de la rupture par fissuration des éléments de structures métalliques soumises à la fatigue.

This highly informative monograph offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary reference guide for the management and treatment of the whole spectrum of painful tears in the anus and anal canal. Based upon a systematic review of all relevant papers on the topic since 1865, it addresses primary, acute and chronic anal fissures – providing a new definition of the last form – and secondary anal fissures in detail, particularly their medical history, etiology, signs and symptoms, medical findings, therapy and its evaluation, and differential diagnosis. The book also covers all available evidence-based therapeutic strategies. As such, it will appeal to a wide readership, from proctologists and surgeons to gynecologists, urologists, dermatologists and gastroenterologists.
