Comparative Study of Bearing Loads for Open Ended Pipe and H-Piles in Sandy Soil [PDF]
This paper clarifies the response of steel piles installed in sand under vertical static compression load. To evaluate the ultimate load capacity of both piles, the results were introduced in a comparison form.

Shaking table tests on negative friction of piles in soft soils under strong earthquake motion
The negative friction of piles caused by seismic settlement of soft soils will produce the downward loads on pile foundation and cause serious damage to the foundation and structures.

Transcendental Aspects, Ontological Commitments and Naturalistic Elements in Nietzsche's Thought [PDF]
Nietzsche's views on knowledge have been interpreted in at least three incompatible ways - as transcendental, naturalistic or proto-deconstructionist. While the first two share a commitment to the possibility of objective truth, the third reading denies ...

Performance of Impulse Response Testing on Prismatic Members with Intermediate Joints [PDF]
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) methods have extensively been used to assess the conditions of civil infrastructure in the recent decades. Among various NDT techniques, Impulse Response (IR) has a vast application due to its simplicity and low cost. However,

Dynamic response of piled structures including pile-soil-pile interaction
Abstract This article presents a numerical model and analyses of the dynamic response of structures supported by groups of piles. The model uses a finite element discretization to represent arbitrarily-shaped structures, and a coupled finite-boundary element scheme to represent the embedded pile group. This scheme properly takes into account the energy

Some observations on statnamic pile testing [PDF]
Limited guidance on usage and methodology is currently available to engineers for the most common rapid load pile test, known as Statnamic. In order to improve the analysis of Statnamic testing in clay soils a full-scale instrumented auger bored pile was

Investigation into the effect of uncertainty of CPT-based soil type estimation on the accuracy of CPT-based pile bearing capacity analysis [PDF]
Cone Penetration Test (CPT or CPTu) is commonly used for estimating soil types and also for the geotechnical design of pile foundation. However, the level of agreement between the CPT-based soil types and the traditional identification of soil types ...

Using Imagery Rescripting as an Early Intervention for Depression in Young People
Innovation is urgently needed for school-based early interventions for depression. Imagery rescripting for aversive memories has been shown to be a valuable therapeutic approach in adults. Yet it is rarely applied to young people or to depression.

The star pile in Abell 545 [PDF]
Context:Struble (1988) found what appeared to be a cD halo without cD galaxy in the center of the galaxy cluster Abell 545. This remarkable feature has been passed almost unnoticed for nearly twenty years.
