Effects of face mask on pulse rate and blood oxygenation [PDF]
Objective The World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend the use of face masks in public. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of face masks on pulse rate and partial blood oxygen saturation in patients without

Modelling of Static Liquefaction of Partially Saturated Non-Cohesive Soils
Static soil liquefaction is widely known to be a serious danger to the stability of structures. The phenomena governing pore water generation, which leads to liquefaction in fully saturated soils, are already quite well described.

Effect of Partial Saturation on Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Skirted Foundations [PDF]
Skirted foundations are one of the solutions proposed to increase the bearing capacity of the soil. They assist in increasing the load and depth of failure in weak ground or soils with low shear resistance and reducing the foundation settlement if a soil

A New Anelasticity Model for Wave Propagation in Partially Saturated Rocks
Elastic wave propagation in partially saturated reservoir rocks induces fluid flow in multi-scale pore spaces, leading to wave anelasticity (velocity dispersion and attenuation).

Earthquake-induced liquefaction is one of the major causes of building damage as it decreases the strength and stiffness of soil. The liquefaction resistance of soils increases significantly as the degree of saturation decreases, making soil desaturation

A State-Dependent Hypoplastic Bounding Surface Model for Gassy Sand
As a kind of partially saturated soil often containing dissolved gas with a high degree of saturation (S > 85%), gassy sand sediment widely exists in the marine environment all over the world.

A semi-empirical model to predict excess pore pressure generation in partially saturated sand [PDF]
Past studies revealed that excess pore pressure generation due to cyclic loading is highly governed by induced strains, volumetric deformation potential of soil, number of cycles, and bulk stiffness of pore fluid.

Saturated deposits of sandy soils may liquefy during an earthquake event, causing detrimental effects on the site and structures. Mitigation of liquefaction-induced damage is of the essence when the structures are expected to exceed the acceptable limits

Deblurring shaken and partially saturated images [PDF]
We address the problem of deblurring images degraded by camera shake blur and saturated or over-exposed pix- els. Saturated pixels are a problem for existing non-blind deblurring algorithms because they violate the assumption that the image formation process is linear, and often cause significant artifacts in deblurred outputs.
