Bearing capacity analysis of helical pile foundation on peat

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Peat is a kind of soil with a very low bearing capacity and high compressibility. Generally, a building construction on peat is done by using a wooden pile foundation.

Field investigation of the effect of installation method on the shaft resistance of piles in clay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper presents the results of a series of field experiments performed to study the effect of installation method on the shaft resistance developed by a pile installed in soft clayey silt.

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Assessing the applicability of thermal response testing to energy piles

open access: yes, 2014
Deep foundations are increasingly being used, not just to carry structural loads, but also to act as heat exchangers as part of a ground source heat pump system.

A Continuum-Based Model for Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Layered Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
An analysis is developed to calculate the response of laterally loaded piles in multilayered elastic media. The displacement fields in the analysis are taken to be the products of independent functions that vary in the vertical, radial and ...

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...

The Recycling Torque of a Single-Plate Helical Pile for Offshore Wind Turbines in Dense Sand

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The helical piles have been being treated as a kind of novel foundation for offshore wind turbines recently, due their fast installation, high uplift capacity, convenience for recycling, and other advantages.

Group thermal response testing for energy piles

open access: yes, 2015
Thermal response testing is an in situ technique for characterising the thermal conductivity of the ground around a borehole heat exchanger. The test has seen renewed interest in recent years as an increasing number of ground heat exchangers are being ...
