The large-diameter ultra-long piles are commonly adopted for constructing ocean platform foundations. The pile-sliding phenomenon frequently takes place because of the great weight of both the piles and the hammer. Engin...

The analytical solutions are presented for the sequential excavation of the tunnel with any shape in viscoelastic rock subjected to anisotropic stress conditions. The complex variable method and the Laplace transformatio...

The time-dependent flexural behavior of an infinite beam of finite width resting on the surface of a saturated poroelastic halfspace is examined. The vertical contact stress is assumed to be uniformly distributed across ...

A hybrid technique, FEM-IBIEM is developed for studying the scattering of seismic waves by a 3-D complex local site. The indirect boundary integral equation method (IBIEM) adopts the dynamic Green's functions of concentr...

Using specially designed low-temperature resonant column apparatus, change rules of dynamic shear moduli and damping ratio with negative temperature and their computational methods for three soils are investigated. Conce...

To be effective as a drug, a potent molecule must reach its target in the body in sufficient concentration, and stay there in a bioactive form long enough for the expected biologic events to occur. Drug development invol...
