The Effect of Failure Criteria on Liquefaction and Pore Pressure Prediction in Non-Plastic Soils

open access: yesGeotechnics
Since the 1960s, cyclic triaxial tests have been utilized to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of cohesionless soils. While standardized procedures exist for conducting cyclic triaxial tests, there remains no universally accepted criterion for ...

Mobility and asymmetry effects in one-dimensional rock-paper-scissors games

open access: yes, 2010
As the behavior of a system composed of cyclically competing species is strongly influenced by the presence of fluctuations, it is of interest to study cyclic dominance in low dimensions where these effects are the most prominent.

Cyclic Triaxial Testing: A Primer

open access: yesJ
Cyclic triaxial tests are frequently used in the laboratory to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of soils. This paper will serve a two-fold purpose: First, it will serve to explain how the mechanics of the tests represent the stresses that occur in ...

Structural Basis of Dual Specificity of Sinorhizobium meliloti Clr, a cAMP and cGMP Receptor Protein

open access: yesmBio, 2023
In bacteria, the most prevalent receptor proteins of 3′,5′-cyclic AMP (cAMP) and 3′,5′-cyclic GMP (cGMP) are found among transcription factors of the Crp-Fnr superfamily.

Coal and fuel burning effects on the atmosphere as mediated by the atmospheric electric field and galactic cosmic rays flux [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
: Emissions into the atmosphere of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) and particulate matter resulting from fossil fuel burning are considered to be the main anthropogenic forcing on the global climate.

The Effects of the Choice of Liquefaction Criteria on Liquefaction in Soils with Plastic Fines

open access: yesJ
Cyclic triaxial tests are widely used in laboratory studies to assess the liquefaction susceptibility of soils. Although standardized procedures exist for conducting these tests, there is no universally accepted criterion for defining liquefaction.

Mobility induces global synchronization of oscillators in periodic extended systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study synchronization of locally coupled noisy phase oscillators which move diffusively in a one-dimensional ring. Together with the disordered and the globally synchronized states, the system also exhibits several wave-like states which display local

Age-Specific Cyclical Effects in Job Reallocation and Labor Mobility [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2005
We present an empirical analysis of job reallocation and labor mobility using matched worker-firm data for the Netherlands to investigate how firms adjust their workforce over the cycle.Our data cover the period 1993-2002.We find that cyclical adjustments of the workforce occur mainly through fluctuations in job creation for young and prime-age workers

Numerical Simulation of Liquefaction Behaviour in Coastal Reclaimed Sediments

open access: yesGeoHazards
This study presents a validated numerical investigation into the seismic liquefaction potential of fine-grained reclaimed sediments commonly encountered in coastal, containment, and reclamation projects. Fine-grained reclaimed sediments pose a particular

Phase transitions in dependence of apex predator decaying ratio in a cyclic dominant system

open access: yes, 2018
Cyclic dominant systems, like rock-paper-scissors game, are frequently used to explain biodiversity in nature, where mobility, reproduction and intransitive competition are on stage to provide the coexistence of competitors. A significantly new situation
