Is it always better to use friction values in inundation modeling, even when we have high-resolution DEM, where rough surface changes are detailed?

I am aware of computational costs while working with high resolution data, so this question is more of hypotetical nature and is related to the relevance of friction parameter in inundation...

How to produce and use multi-resolution grid (a mixture of high and coarse resolution on the same raster image) in ArcGIS or any GIS software ?

It seems impossible since most of analyses are based on 3x3 cell neighborhood but I would like to hear your experiences. I know that some hydrodinamical models like TELEMAC are able to perform...

How to obtain the Strain Energy Release Rate from a fatigue Analysis on Abaqus?

Hi, i'm performing a fatigue analysis based on the Paris law via XFEM using Abaqus. My analysis consist of two steps: in the first one the crack is created by defining a damage criteria (MAXPS) in...

Do you know a catalyst or substance that acts as initializer for the formation of cristobalite starting from fused amorphous silica powders?

I'm finding a substance that can improve the formation of cristobalite when I start a thermal cycle from pure silica powders. Can you tell me some specific scientific work? Thank for any answers...

Is the virial stress defined in the Euler or Lagrange description ?

It is interesting by the determination of the atomic pressure in solids. I read some paper about the viral stress which was introduced by Lutsko (J. Appl. Phys. 64 (3), 1988) using the local...

Can you suggest some very effective chemical solvents for a wax dissolution (this wax is rich in paraffins)?In this case, can you suggest some papers?

I need to dissolve this wax at room temperature, if is possibile. Or without increase the temperature up 30-35 celsius degrees. This wax is rich in paraffins, and it have a melting temperature...

How the parameters (such as Mw, Chemical bonds, polymer bland and so on) affect the mechanic property of polymer (such as storage, loss modulus) ?

Anyone can recommend any books on such topics? Thanks in advance.
