Experimental evaluation of negative skin friction on floating pile in gypseous soil

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering
Gypseous soils are characterized by an open structure with developed porosity and high gypsum content, which determines their metastable state. When saturated with water, a decrease in volume occurs as a result of a decrease in matrix suction and ...

Injectable Stimuli‐Responsive Amphiphilic Hydrogel for Rapid Hemostasis, Robust Tissue Adhesion, and Controlled Drug Delivery in Trauma and Surgical Care

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fast‐acting hydrogel seals bleeding wounds as the illustrated injectable, pH‐responsive network rapidly gels in situ to stop hemorrhage, adhere strongly to wet tissue, and release antibiotics in a controlled, pH‐dependent manner. The material withstands high pressures, shows excellent biocompatibility, and degrades safely, offering a versatile platform

Effects of the Tip Location on Single Piles Subjected to Surcharge and Axial Loads

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
When applying axial load on piles subjected to negative skin friction (NSF), the yielded NSF is gradually eliminated. The process is notably influenced by the tip location (Y) and still a lack of understanding.
