Suction caissons in dense sand, Part I: Installation, limiting capacity and drainage [PDF]
, 2018 Suction caissons are a promising foundation concept for supporting offshore wind turbines. Compared to applications in the oil and gas industry, where most practical experience exists, significant differences arise in terms of load paths and magnitudes ...

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Addiction, EarlyView.Abstract Background and aims Despite the well‐documented benefits of opioid substitution treatment (OST) in treating opioid dependence (OD), many people diagnosed with OD desire to live a drug‐free life. The transition to abstinence involves detoxification: a gradual dose reduction of OST to zero milligrams.

The Embryonic Development of the Cotylean Polyclad Phrikoceros jannetae
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Polyclads exhibit distinct developmental modes ranging from direct to indirect development, with several transitional stages also recognised. The existence of an indirect developmental mode in polyclads with a planktonic life history stage in the form of a free‐swimming larva is unique among all free‐living flatworms and makes polyclads a ...

Modelling the installation of suction Caisson foundations in sand
, 2013 Suction caisson foundations have been widely used in the offshore oil industry and the current trend is to extend their use to offshore wind farms. The caisson consists of a large hollow cylindrical structure usually made from steel, open at the base and
