A depression before a bump in the highest energy cosmic ray spectrum [PDF]
We re-examine the interaction of ultra high energy nuclei with the microwave background radiation. We find that the giant dipole resonance leaves a new signature in the differential energy spectrum of iron sources located around 3 Mpc: A depression ...

Ultra high energy neutrino-nucleon cross section from cosmic ray experiments and neutrino telescopes [PDF]
We deduce the cosmogenic neutrino flux by jointly analysing ultra high energy cosmic ray data from HiRes-I and II, AGASA and the Pierre Auger Observatory.

The Analysis of Soil Resistance During Screw Displacement Pile Installation
The application of screw displacement piles (SDP) is still increasing due to their high efficiency and many advantages. However, one technological problem is a serious disadvantage of those piles. It relates to the generation of very high soil resistance

Relaxation of Optically Excited Carriers in Graphene [PDF]
We explore the relaxation of photo-excited graphene by solving a transient Boltzmann transport equation with electron-phonon (e-ph) and electron-electron (e-e) scattering.

Extreme-Energy Cosmic Rays: Puzzles, Models, and Maybe Neutrinos [PDF]
The observation of twenty cosmic-ray air-showers at and above 10^{20} eV poses fascinating problems for particle astrophysics: how the primary particles are accelerated to these energies, how the primaries get here through the 2.7K microwave background ...

Comparison of Numerical Analyses with a Static Load Test of a Continuous Flight Auger Pile
The article deals with numerical analyses of a Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) pile. The analyses include a comparison of calculated and measured load-settlement curves as well as a comparison of the load distribution over a pile's length.

Assessment of surface parameters of VDW foundation piles using geodetic measurement techniques
This article presents in situ research on the side surface of Vor der Wand (VDW) foundation piles using 3D laser scanning and close-range photogrammetry to assess the morphology of pile concrete surface.

Heavy nuclei at the end of the cosmic ray spectrum? [PDF]
We provide an account of the possible acceleration of iron nuclei up to energies $\sim300$ EeV in the nearby, metally-rich starburst galaxy NGC 253. It is suggested that particles can escape from the nuclear region with energies of $\sim10^{15}$ eV and ...

Sustainability-Oriented Multi-Criteria Analysis of Different Continuous Flight Auger Piles [PDF]
With increasing construction activity and concrete consumption globally, the economic, environmental, and social impacts of human activities continue to increase rapidly. Therefore, it is imperative to assess the choice and construction of each structure and structural component from a sustainability-based perspective.
