In the paper, a selection of statistical tests for median are presented. In particular, parametric and nonparametric significance tests are considered. In the case of parametric tests the critical regions are constructed...

The stability standards for plate load tests on soft foundation are studied based on the engineering practice. The differences of determing the characteristic values of bearing capacity and the ultimate values of bearing...

The tangent modulus method is a method which is based on the plate loading tests to obtain the tangent modulus of the soil under different load levels, and uses the tangent modulus into the layer-wise summation method fo...

Realizaram-se testes físico-mecânicos e físico-químicos em couro de tilápia vermelha (Oreochromis spp.) a fim de testar a sua resistência. As amostras foram distribuídas em delineamento inteiramente ao acaso com d...

Based on the SMP criterion-based K0 consolidated anisotropic Cam-clay model, an analytical solution to cylindrical cavity expansion for pile installation is derived. This solution incorporates the effects of the initial ...

The traditional view of colonization of the Americas as a migration across Beringia and subsequent dispersal southward following the last glacial maximum is being increasingly questioned. In North America, archaeological...

Metronidazole (MTZ) is a wonderful drug, which is used clinically to treat a wide range of bacterial and protozoal infections. This study aimed to achieve a precise characterization of the cytotoxic and genotoxic activit...

Although octyldodecanol has been used for several decades as an ingredient for emulsions, no required Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance (HLB) values for this alcohol were found in the literature. The purpose of this paper...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to develop a modified tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) plate and to compare its biomechanical properties with a locking compression plate (LCP) and plate-rod constructs for the ...

OBJETIVO: estudar a candidíase vulvovaginal em mulheres com e sem suspeita clínica a partir de fluido vaginal, identificando frequência de Candida spp. e associando a fatores de risco intrínsecos e extrínsecos. MÉT...

The objective of this experiment was to characterize the heart rate (HR) of twelve Mangalarga Marchador mares, before, during, and immediately after 5, 10, 15 and 20 minutes of marcha tests, evaluating the effect of chro...

Entre as práticas do psicólogo há a realização de avaliação psicológica. Inadequações em avaliações psicológicas podem refletir problemas na formação do psicólogo. Este artigo apresenta uma pesquisa que i...

STUDY QUESTION: Does a personalized embryo transfer (pET) guided by tests for endometrial receptivity (TER) increase the effectiveness of ART procedures? SUMMARY ANSWER: The use of TER-guided pET is not supported by curr...

Background. Respiratory infections remain a major global health burden with significant economic impact. The di-versity of viral pathogens and variability in diagnostic approaches complicate etiological verification in l...

Acute semistatic toxicity tests were carried out for 96 h with first zoeae and young crabs of Chasmagnathus granulata. Survival curves and LC50 (lethal concentration 50, the concentration which produces the death of 50% ...

Engineering structures built on or within rock masses require a proper characterization of their geomechanical properties. In this context, determining the strength parameters of intact rock is essential. Triaxial compre...

The settling column tests and the vacuum preloading model tests are performed on the waste slurry of a construction site in Shanghai and the additive agent slurry. The sediment and turbidity characteristics of slurries w...

Abstract Background The full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 resulted in the largest refugee crisis in Europe since World War II, with Poland hosting the highest number of displaced Ukrainians. Although the adv...

The parameters obtained from the piezocone penetration tests (CPTU) have been widely used for soil profiling and geostratigraphy over the decades. In this study, large amount of CPTU soundings and parallel drilling borin...
