USE OF PLASTIC FILTERS IN COASTAL STRUCTURES

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1966
It has long been the opinion of many engineers that the primary cause of failure in certain coastal structures is due to an inadequate filter system. Normally, filters for granular soils are made up of layers of graded sand, gravel and stone materials in various combinations and thickness dimensions. Very often these materials are expensive and in some

DESIGN OF COASTAL STRUCTURES FOR RECREATIONAL PURPOSES

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1982
Although the major aspect of this paper deals with a specific part of the South African coast line it is believed that certain fundamental parameters which emerge are applicable to the greater part of the Southern African coast line of 2954 km. Typical of the African continent the nature of the Southern African coast line is regular and even with few ...

Neurophysiological Recovery Following Nerve Transfer Surgery to Restore Upper Limb Function after Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Nerve transfer is a promising intervention for restoring hand and upper limb function after cervical spinal cord injury (SCI), but the timeline of neurophysiological recovery in humans remains unclear. This study aimed to define recovery profiles after nerve transfers to restore upper limb function.
