Modified spinopelvic crab-shaped fixation using offset connectors for a H-shaped sacral fracture with a floating Roy-Camille type 3 transverse component: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesActa Neurochirurgica
Background Transverse sacral fractures with spinopelvic dissociation are highly unstable and can cause severe neurological compromise. In cases combining an H-shaped sacral fracture, a floating Roy-Camille type 3 component, and a free canal fragment ...

Study on Sound Transmission across a Floating Floor in a Residential Building by Using SEA

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2021
For the purpose of reducing the impact noise transmission across floating floors in residential buildings, two main sound transmission paths in the floating floor structure are considered: the stud path and the cavity path. The sound transmission of each

Estimating the performance of heavy impact sound insulation using empirical approaches

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2021
With an increasing demand for quieter residential environments, impact sound insulation for floating floors is gaining importance. However, existing methods for estimating the performance of heavy impact sound insulation are limited by their inability to

Evaluating Laboratory Measurements for Sound Insulation of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) Floors: Configurations in Lightweight Buildings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors with supplementary layers or floating floors comprise a common solution in new multistory timber structures. However, bare CLT components provide poor sound insulation, especially in low frequencies during structure ...

Effects of Wall-to-Wall Supported Ceilings on Impact Sound Insulation for Use in Residential Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
In Korean residential buildings, floor impact sounds were reduced over the past few decades mainly through a floating floor system. However, ceiling constructions for impact sound reduction have not been applied actively because of a lack of useful ...

Experimental investigation of the low-frequency impact sound transfer function of lightweight wooden floors via heel drops

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2020
The lightweight floor is a popular construction choice in buildings despite its poor low-frequency impact sound performance. This is exacerbated by common human activities, such as walking and jumping, that have high input force levels at low frequencies.

Floor Heave Mechanism and Anti-Slide Piles Control Technology in Deep and Large-Span Chamber

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Based on plastic limit analysis, the deformation and fracture mechanism of the floor in the large-span chambers of deep mines are discussed and a similarity model test is carried out to verify the reliability of the theoretical analysis. The results show

On the influence of the air flow resistivity on the measurement of the dynamic stiffness of underlays for floating floors

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2021
The dynamic stiffness of underlays is a required quantity to predict the reduction of impact and airborne noise transmitted through floating floors. The measurement of the dynamic stiffness is standardized in ISO 9052–1 using a floating floor section of ...
