Proposals of SPT-CPT and DPL-CPT correlations for sandy soils in Brazil
Field tests in geotechnical engineering are fundamental for identification of the underground conditions. The standard penetration test (SPT) is the most commonly used geotechnical approach.

A micromechanical study of the Standard Penetration Test
This thesis explores the potential of models based on the discrete element method (DEM) to study dynamic probing of granular materials, considering realistic particle-scale properties. The virtual calibration chamber technique, based on the discrete element method, is applied to study the standard penetration test (SPT).

Standard penetration testing in a virtual calibration chamber [PDF]
The virtual calibration chamber technique, based on the discrete element method, is here applied to study the standard penetration test (SPT). A macro-element approach is used to represent a rod driven with an impact like those applied to perform SPT. The rod is driven into a chamber filled with a scaled discrete analogue of a quartz sand.

The Role of “Adult‐Onset” Cancer Predisposition Genes in Pediatric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Current literature estimates that 10% of pediatric cancers are caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants in cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). Variants in CPGs thought to increase cancer risk exclusively during adulthood are referred to as “adult‐onset” CPGs (aoCPGs).

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...
