Insoluble polyelectrolyte and ion-exchange hollow fiber impregnated therewith [PDF]
, 1977 The number of quaternary sites and ion exchange capacity of a polyquaternary, cross linked, insoluble copolymer of a vinyl pyridine and a dihalo organic compound is increased by about 15-35% by reaction of the polymer with an amine followed by ...

Experimental investigation of wave-driven pore-water pressure and wave attenuation in a sandy seabed
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016 Wave–seabed interaction has become a big concern of coastal researchers and engineers in the past decades as it may largely contribute to the seabed instability and failure of marine foundations.

Evolution of excess pore water pressures around monopiles subjected to moderate seismic loading
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake EngineeringThe sustained growth of the offshore wind sector is leading to the construction of offshore wind farms in highly seismic regions of the world. Hence, a large proportion of the potential sites may be exposed to liquefaction risk. Monopiles are directly affected by this phenomenon given their preference as a support system for offshore wind turbines over
