Deformation bands and early calcite cement develop upon wall-rock contraction after fluidization ceased and fluid pressures dropped. |
The formation of pockmarks within muddy sediments is suggested to be caused by the interaction between sediment fluidization and bottom currents. |
After fluidization ceased and the fluid pressure dropped, walls contracted, resulting in increased grain contact stresses, and bands parallel to the margins developed. |
The higher velocity fluidization regime means that there is a particle density gradient from the bottom of the gasifier to the top. |
One factor that may control early calcite precipitation in sand injections is pressure drops that occurred shortly after fluidization ceased. |
Glass particles fluidized with water gave particulate fluidization and lead particles with water gave aggregative fluidization. |
