Experimental study on the cyclic resistance of a natural loess from Northern France [PDF]
In order to analyze the instability phenomenon observed along the Northern High Speed Line of R\'eseau Ferr\'e de France (RFF), soil blocks were taken at a site near the railway, at four different depths (1.2, 2.2, 3.5 and 4.9 m).

Dynamic Characteristics of Saturated Soft Clay under Constant Confining Pressure Cyclic Loading
Abstract The research on the dynamic characteristics of soft clay under cyclic loading has high value. This paper takes Ningbo saturated soft clay as the research object and uses the GCTS true triaxial test system to analyze the effects of consolidated confining pressure and cyclic deviator stress on the axial cumulative strain.

Mechanical Behavior and Damage Evolution for Granite Subjected to Cyclic Loading
This paper focuses on the mechanical behavior and damage evolution of Huashan granite subjected to cyclic loading. Four levels of confining pressure (0, 15, 25, and 35 MPa) were applied during cyclic axial loading by using a Rock Test System (MTS815 ...

Cyclic Undrained Triaxial Strength of Sampled Sand Affected by Confining Pressure
The effects of confining pressure on the cyclic undrained triaxial strengths of intact sandy specimens obtained by sand sampling methods were investigated. It was found that the ratio of cyclic deviator stress amplitude to initial confining pressure required to cause a certain value of cyclic axial strain amplitude at a certain number of loading cycle ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
