Centrifuge model testing for pile foundation reuse [PDF]
With continuous development in the urban environment, the ground is becoming increasingly congested with redundant foundations. The underground development of services and infrastructure already restricts the location of new building foundations and the redundant foundations only add to this problem.

Study on distribution of sidewall earth pressure on open caissons considering soil arching effect
Based on the soil arching effect theory, the magnitude and distribution of sidewall earth pressure on open caissons when the embedded depth is large was analyzed by using theory of non-limit state earth pressure theory and horizontal differential element

Development of a stereovision-based technique to measure the spread patterns of granular fertilizer spreaders [PDF]
Centrifugal fertilizer spreaders are by far the most commonly used granular fertilizer spreader type in Europe. Their spread pattern however is error-prone, potentially leading to an undesired distribution of particles in the field and losses out of the ...
