Landslide Drag Forces on Pipelines
Soils and Foundations, 1991 ABSTRACT An experimental program was carried out to investigate the effect of landslide (or mudslide) velocity on the drag force applied by the sliding soil on a pipeline crossing the landslide area. Methods currently used in assessing drag forces are reviewed and compared to the experimental results.

Morphology, Transport, and Dynamics of Protein Adsorption in Open‐Cell Metal Foam
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Stainless steel (SS) open‐cell foams are shown to adsorb more protein per unit area than previously reported 316L SS and chromium oxide surfaces under static and flow conditions. An integrated approach combining 3D pore imaging, flow simulation, and protein adsorption experiments characterizes the foam’s performance.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Near‐surface deuterium enrichment profiles for different microstructural types of TiAl after exposure at 700 °C in a heavy water‐containing environment. The deuterium levels are significantly higher than expected from natural occurrence, indicating that the heavy water dissociated during the exposure treatment and entered the specimens.
