Segmented constitutive relationship of weakly cemented sandstone and numerical implementation based on homogeneity by Wang Hong, Zuo Yu-jun, Zhang Lei

“…The outcomes highlight several key findings: (1) The experiments revealed a distinct compaction stage in weakly cemented sandstone, which becomes shorter with an increase in confining pressure, highlighting a significant mechanical property of these rocks. (2) The piecewise constitutive model demonstrates effectiveness in capturing the compaction stage, the elastic deformation stage, and the post-damage deformation phase, with excellent agreement between the model predictions and experimental data. (3) By incorporating the model into FLAC3D and considering rock homogeneity, the study demonstrates the capability to calculate and predict the stress field migration and the evolution of damaged zones during the failure process of weakly cemented sandstone under various confining pressures. …”

Postal horse relays and roads in France, from the 17th to the 19th centuries by Nicolas Verdier, Timothée Giraud, Christophe Mimeur, Anne Bretagnolle

“…Different datasets can be downloaded*: the location and the name of the postal relays and of the current commune** in which they are located in 1632, 1708, 1733, 1758, 1783, 1810 and 1833 (digitized from a 1632 historical map and from historical Post Books); the roads digitized in the GIS as the crow flies between two adjacent relays according to the historical sources, with different attributes (length in number of "posts", which was the historical count unit of the time, length in kilometers, estimation of the speed travel according to a model integrating the average slope and the evolution of horse speed during the two centuries); the population of the relays for 1600, 1700, 1750, 1780, 1809 and 1831 (when the information is available in historical sources); the historical boundaries of France in 1632, 1708, 1733, 1758, 1783, 1810 and 1833 (digitized from historical maps).*. …”
