Pullout Bearing Capacity of End-Bearing Torpedo Anchors in Cohesive Soil Seabed

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
As a new type of deep-sea anchoring foundation, thetorpedo anchor has the characteristics of simple installation, low cost, and high bearing capacity. Compared with the torpedo anchor without an anchor wing, the end-bearing torpedo anchor forms pile end ...

ICE EFFECTS ON COASTAL STRUCTURES

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1972
Ice effects on coastal structures, and more particularly the maximum forces caused by ice action, depend on a number of factors, such as:- (a) The physical properties of the ice encountered. (b) The thickness of ice formations. (c) The size of these formations, and their motion. (d) The shape and size of the structures concerned.

Enhanced Infection Resistance and Regenerative Healing of Titanium Implants via Peptide‐Loaded Biodegradable Coatings

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study presents a new biodegradable coating for titanium implants using a natural antimicrobial peptide, caerin 1.9. Applied via solvent casting, the coating offers sustained antibacterial protection and promotes healing. Tested on 3D‐printed porous titanium scaffolds, it effectively prevented infection—including against resistant bacteria—while ...

Investigation of the transport characteristics of Pb(II) in sand-bone char columns

Science Progress, 2021
Pb(II) leakage from batteries, dyes, construction materials, and gasoline threaten human health and environmental safety, and suitable adsorption materials are vitally important for Pb(II) removal. Bone char is an outstanding adsorbent material for water

Contravariant Boussinesq equations for the simulation of wave transformation, breaking and run-up [PDF]

, 2015
We propose an integral form of the fully non-linear Boussinesq equations in contravariant formulation, in which Christoffel symbols are avoided, in order to simulate wave transformation phenomena, wave breaking and near shore currents in computational

Estimation of Coastal Stability Due to Coastal Structures [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Monitoring and Analysis, 2015
The coastal structures are unavoidable for various industrial operations. These are changing hydrodynamics of the marine and its adjacent areas; and are directly influencing environmental conditions of the marine environment. The sedimentation on shorelines is strongly under influence of the new structures.
