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

A new approach to investigate the particle size effects in centrifuge modelling [PDF]
Geotechnical centrifuge modelling provides an opportunity to examine novel and complex events in a well-controlled and repeatable environment. While grain interaction and contact dynamics are considered in centrifuge modelling, the soil is treated as a ...

ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

The column tests on advection-dispersion are commonly used to measure the contaminant transport parameters in soils. The applicability of boundary conditions for analytical modelling of the column tests is under debate. The low-permeability kaolin column

Scaling-up vaccine production: implementation aspects of a biomass growth observer and controller [PDF]
This study considers two aspects of the implementation of a biomass growth observer and specific growth rate controller in scale-up from small- to pilot-scale bioreactors towards a feasible bulk production process for whole-cell vaccine against whooping ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

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

A numerical model based on the finite element framework was developed to predict the seismic response of saturated sand under free-field conditions. The finite element framework used a non-linear coupled hypoplastic model based on the u-p formulation to ...

ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Aseismic measures for asphalt concrete core dams by dynamic centrifuge modelling tests
Dynamic centrifuge modelling tests are carried out to study the effectiveness of aseismic measures for a sand-gravel dam with asphalt concrete core wall under design earthquake. 2 models are used to simulate 2 dams without and with aseismic measures. The
