| 1. | Too low an effective confining pressure may cause the cement to become ductile.
|
| 2. | The tests carried out by Robertson show plasticity occurring at high confining pressures.
|
| 3. | As the magma ascends towards the surface, the temperature and confining pressure decrease.
|
| 4. | C'= is called dilatancy of closely packed soil particles depends on confining pressure.
|
| 5. | It is observed that the higher the confining pressure, the greater the ductility observed.
|
| 6. | First boiling is defined as a decrease in confining pressure below the vapor pressure of the melt.
|
| 7. | To maintain an approximately static plasmoid radius, this pressure must be balanced by an external confining pressure.
|
| 8. | A decrease in temperature and confining pressure will allow an increase in crystallization and vapor pressure of the dissolved gas.
|
| 9. | Within depths less than 5 km, dynamic metamorphism is not often produced because the confining pressure is too low to produce frictional heat.
|
| 10. | Sometimes, testing of cohesive samples is done with no confining pressure, in an "'unconfined compression test " '.
