Rock Destruction and Dangerous Geodynamic Processes in the Earth: A Review | Chapter 11 | Fundamental Research and Application of Physical Science Vol. 1

 Investigations of rock demolition and metamorphic processes under different thermodynamic environments are among the most detracting global and seismological metallurgy problems. Solving the mentioned questions is only possible by painstakingly studying rock stability. It was deliberate earlier that few material’s destruction occurs when not completely one stress tensor component reaches a fault-finding value called “material endurance”. However, the conducted reasoning allowed us to conclude that specific a notion is correct only for comparably short-term action and is inappropriate for prolonged stress to mark. Instead of “durability”, we suggest utilizing the notion of “endurance”. Based on detailed hypothetical analysis, we propose a new physicalmathematical beginning describing the demolition process as a phase transition. According to this direction, the formation of a microfault (the incident of a space with maximum stress aggregation) marks the beginning of a new aspect. The development of such a new idea allows for the acknowledgment of new relationships between the demolition process on one help and time, strength, hotness, pressure, and rock crystal mesh characteristics on the other. It was found that the generation of microfaults results in the issuance of a specific number of seismo-acoustic drives. The intensity of the process devastation is determined by the number of impulses per period unit, and the fluctuation frequency signifies the size of the forming microfaults. We suggest that a worldwide change in terrestrial rocks caused by various tangible factors (metamorphism) be judged using the common approach by regarding the process as a phase change. As a result, some conclusions from the rock demolition analysis can be transferred to metamorphic processes. The proposed idea allows for processes for forecasting dangerous basaltic events and listening the longevity of various surface and subversive structures, in the way that buildings, mines, and reservoirs, as well as additional artificial and unrefined structures.

Study on the Hominescent Body in Michel Serres’ Thinking | Chapter 8 | Current Approaches in Science and Technology Research Vol. 10

 This contribution examines Michel Serres' idea of the «reappropriation» of the senses (and body) in the way of aesthetics as a «reunified» discourse on sensations and fine arts expressed in the 1980s, as well as his idea of metamorphism and mimicry of the body expressed in the 1990s, reading them as emergencies of his recent idea of the new «hominescent» body. First, in the context of Serres' philosophy of hominescence, the Serresian proposition to "return" to the senses and body from the standpoint of aesthetics will be analysed. Serres' theming of body metamorphism and mimicry, in which the senses are thought to influence the body's mimicking, will then be addressed. These stages are meant to illuminate the ramifications of Serres' recent concept of the "hominescent" body. First, the investigation of Serresian rethinking of the body through rediscovery of the senses and highlighting of bodily metamorphic and mimetic processes; second, the delineation of Serresian concept of «hominescent» body/bodily hominescence, which is, in a sense, the perspective/result of this revaluation of the body.
