DOI: 10.1016/j.jas.2019.105031
Abstract: Abstract Expedient lithic technology has been described as unchanging and without or very limited presence of formal tool types. However, this premise seems to limit the discussion on technological and behavioural complexity when studying amorphous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jasrep.2017.12.017
Abstract: Abstract The flake axe is one of the most debated stone tools of the Scandinavian Mesolithic. Few analysis have however been carried out in order to investigate the actual function and use of the tool.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jasrep.2019.102119
Abstract: Abstract Throughout prehistory, wood working was a frequent activity. The indices of this activity comes from rare found wooden remains, and the analysis of use-wear on them. In most recent periods, there are stone polished… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2015.11.061
Abstract: Abstract Use-wear analysis on prehistoric lithic artefacts makes it possible to identify the real function of the tools. To identify the nature of the technical activities practised on a site increases considerably the interpretative potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wear.2018.12.088
Abstract: Abstract This paper describes an experimental investigation on a pair of spur gears in which wear and pitting were intentionally allowed to occur, namely, moisture corrosion pitting, acid-induced corrosion pitting, hard contaminant-related pitting and mechanical… read more here.

DOI: 10.17159/2411-9717/669/2019
Abstract: In July of 2016 and June 2017, major tap-hole repairs were carried out during the annual shutdown of two 63 MVA submerged arc furnaces producing ferrochromium in South Africa. The hot excavations of the tap-holes… read more here.
