TLDR
In this paper, a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) is presented.
Abstract
Deposits of clastic carbonate-dominated (calciclastic) sedimentary slope systems in the rock record have been identified mostly as linearly-consistent carbonate apron deposits, even though most ancient clastic carbonate slope deposits fit the submarine fan systems better. Calciclastic submarine fans are consequently rarely described and are poorly understood. Subsequently, very little is known especially in mud-dominated calciclastic submarine fan systems. Presented in this study are a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) that reveals a >250 m thick calciturbidite complex deposited in a calciclastic submarine fan setting. Seven facies are recognised from core and thin section characterisation and are grouped into three carbonate turbidite sequences. They include: 1) Calciturbidites, comprising mostly of highto low-density, wavy-laminated bioclast-rich facies; 2) low-density densite mudstones which are characterised by planar laminated and unlaminated muddominated facies; and 3) Calcidebrites which are muddy or hyper-concentrated debrisflow deposits occurring as poorly-sorted, chaotic, mud-supported floatstones.

A review of the features and analyses of the solid electrolyte interphase in Li-ion batteries

TL;DR: The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is a protecting layer formed on the negative electrode of Li-ion batteries as a result of electrolyte decomposition, mainly during the first cycle as discussed by the authors.

Searching for interacting features

TL;DR: In this article, a feature by itself may have little correlation with the target concept, but when it is combined with some other features, they can be strongly correlated with target concept.

Advanced biomaterials for skeletal tissue regeneration: Instructive and smart functions

TL;DR: Recent developments in the design of biomaterials that integrate the understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms with materials science are reviewed, including those that can activate cellular processes and tissue formation solely by their intrinsic physicochemical and three dimensional spatial properties.

Hyperon-nucleon interaction at next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the results for the ΛN and ΣN interactions obtained at next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory are reported, at the order considered there are contributions from one-and two-pseudoscalar-meson exchange diagrams and from four-baryon contact terms without and with two derivatives.
