Reinforcement Effects of Isolation Piles on the Adjacent Existing Tunnel in Building Construction

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Similar material model test and numerical simulation method were used to study the reinforcement effect of isolation piles on the existing shield tunnel structure in the adjacent building construction for analyzing foundation pit excavation and new ...

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Numerical modelling of rows of discrete piles used to stabilise landslides under long-term conditions in clays

open access: yes, 2013
A literature review found no rigorous solution for the ultimate lateral pile-soil pressure ( ) in a soil characterised by a frictional failure criterion, and that the popular empirical methods to estimate give profiles with depth that differ ...

Performance of Anchored Sheet Pile Wall with Batter Piles in Sandy Soil Subjected to Coupled Seepage and Cyclic Load: An Experimental Study

open access: yesWasit Journal of Engineering Sciences
In order to build flood barriers, erosion protection, cutoff walls, under dams, waterfront buildings, cofferdams, and excavation support systems, anchored sheet pile walls are used as either temporary or permanent constructions.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Model tests on 3D soil arching in pile-supported embankments with and without geotextile

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
Compared to traditional soil improvement methods such as preloading, vertical drains, or grouting injection, et al., pile-supported reinforced embankments are increasing widely employed in the construction of highways on soft soils.

Effect of Passive Pile on 3D Ground Deformation and on Active Pile Response

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Using a series of model tests, this study investigated the effect of a passive pile on 3D ground deformation around a laterally loaded pile and on that laterally loaded pile’s response in sand. The active pile head was subjected to lateral loads, and the

Dual native G‐quadruplex folding is associated with chromatin looping at the MYC locus

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BG4‐detectable G‐quadruplex (G4) in HaCaT and NHEK keratinocytes identified folded and unfolded G4s enriched at promoters/TSSs and active enhancers, whereas unfolded G4s also overlapped weak/poised enhancers. At MYC–PVT1, 3C‐qPCR detected enhancer–promoter looping only when G4s were simultaneously folded at both regulatory elements under native ...

Ground vibration measurements with special reference to pile driving [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
There has been increased concern in recent years over the level and nature of the ground vibrations. The importance of such vibration has increased rapidly due to developments in construction in urban areas, where the effects of ground borne vibration on

Cell surface CD11c as a neutrophil aging marker molecule

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cell surface CD11chi neutrophils were more aged and had better phagocytic function than CD11c−/lo neutrophils. Transcriptomic analysis of CD11chi neutrophils and CD11c−/lo neutrophils in pediatric population showed that the most difference was seen in infants.
