Development of layered models for geotechnical centrifuge tests [PDF]

, 2018
Centrifuge modelling is an established technique for investigating the ground response to complex and non-standard geotechnical events. These models are usually made from re-formed soil, allowing for comparisons with naturally occurring soil deposits. Clay models are formed by mixing clay powder and water into a slurry.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

Similarity analysis and verification of slurry fracturing on shield tunnel face using centrifuge modeling

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The geotechnical centrifuge test can restore the real stress field in the small-scale model, and provides an effective research method for investigating the slurry fracturing phenomenon of the shield tunnel face. There are several factors involved in the

Centrifuge modeling of jacked pile in clay

工程科学学报, 2018
Notable contributions to our improved understanding of jacked pile behavior in sand have been achieved through instrumented model pile tests in laboratory test chambers, at elevated g-levels in the centrifuge, and in the field.

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Centrifuge model tests on the near-horizontal slide of hard soil-soft rock landslides

Dizhi lixue xuebao, 2021
In order to study the deformation characteristics of the Neogene hard soil-soft rock landslides in northwest China, two sets of centrifuge model tests were conducted to simulate the deformation process under the degraded state of shear zones, and the ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Centrifugal model tests on synchronous deformation of inclinometer pipes in soft soil layers

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
In geotechnical engineering, the inclinometer pipes are commonly used to monitor shear deformations in soft soil foundations. However, in practical applications, a phenomenon of asynchronous deformation between the inclinometer pipe and the surrounding ...

A review of modelling effects in centrifuge monopile testing in sand

, 2018
Monopile supports are to this day the preferred foundation solution for offshore wind turbines. There is still an empirical gap, however, between the in-situ conditions for these monopiles and the test conditions the current design methods are based on. This relates to both pile geometry and load conditions.

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
