Subsoil stiffness effects on the bridge-abutment dynamic behaviour [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Integral abutment bridges (IABs) are robust structures that avoid the use of bearings and expansion joints and are relatively maintenance-free compared to conventional bridges.

Centrifuge modelling of piled embankments [PDF]

, 2008
It is becoming increasingly necessary to construct on land that was previously considered inappropriate for construction, such as soft clay. The properties of soft clay make it highly compressible and low in shear strength, meaning that bearing capacity failure and excessive settlement are of concern.

Scaling laws for centrifuge modelling of explosion-induced cratering in sand

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
There are shortcomings in generality and applicability for the traditional crater scaling laws, and the Coriolis effects on explosion cratering in centrifuge tests are still unclear.

Generalized centrifugal-force model for pedestrian dynamics [PDF]

Physical Review E, 2010
A spatially continuous force-based model for simulating pedestrian dynamics is introduced which includes an elliptical volume exclusion of pedestrians. We discuss the phenomena of oscillations and overlapping which occur for certain choices of the forces.

Venous Thromboembolism in Pediatric Bone Sarcoma Patients: A 10‐Year, Single‐Institution Experience Encompassing the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing

Centrifugation Theory Revisited: Understanding and Modeling the Centrifugation of 2D Nanosheets

Advanced Materials Interfaces
ABSTRACT Size selection of liquid‐dispersed 2D nanomaterials is a prerequisite for size‐dependent studies in earlier‐stage research and for their targeted application in commercial settings. Centrifugation is the most widespread method for reliably sorting suspensions of polydisperse 2D nanosheets according to size.

Serological Benefit of SARS‐CoV‐2 Vaccination Relative to Infection in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of severe outcomes from SARS‐CoV‐2 (SCV2). In the post‐pandemic context, where most children have been infected with SCV2, there are limited data on whether vaccination remains beneficial in children with ALL.

Centrifuge modelling of tunnelling below existing twin tunnels with different types of support

Underground Space, 2022
Tunnel excavation below existing tunnels produces ultimate and serviceability problems to the existing tunnels. The behaviours of induced stresses on the existing tunnels haven't yet been fully recognized.

Centrifuge Modelling of Embankments on Clay Foundations

Soils and Foundations, 1985
ABSTRACT The performance of low embankments constructed on soft clay foundations both during and folllowing construction has been studied using centrifuge models. Model embankments were constructed during centrifuge operation on foundations prepared with an overconsolidated layer overlaying normally consolidated soil.

Time Toxicity in Wilms Tumor: Quantifying the Burden of Healthcare Interaction in the First Year After Diagnosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT) treatment imposes a significant time burden on patients and their families. Time toxicity is a patient‐centered metric that quantifies the burden of healthcare interaction. We sought to define time toxicity in the first year after diagnosis of WT and hypothesized that it would increase as tumor stage and treatment ...
