The settlement rate and pore water pressure dissipation are mainly controlled by the permeability of soil. Both laboratory field tests show that is varied during loading consolidation process. It known process accompanied decrease in void ratio which leads to coefficient permeability. importance on time needs be investigated.This paper takes into account change studies its effect characteristic...

BACKGROUND Most illnesses caused by pandemic influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 virus (A/H1N1) infection are acute and self-limiting among children. However, in some children, disease progression is rapid and may require hospitalization and transfer to a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). We investigated factors associated with rapid disease progression among children admitted to hospital for A/H1N1 i...

Dams on soft soils differ greatly in behavior when compared to rock foundations. Potential dam failures can occur due differential settlement. The total reduction Barnacle without PVD takes 17 years. Analysis of the use shows an increase shear strength dissipation pore stresses marked by safety figures. time needed achieve consolidation at least 80% is 180 days based finite element simulations....

The settlement of Madagascar is one of the most unusual, and least understood, episodes in human prehistory. Madagascar was one of the last landmasses to be reached by people, and despite the island's location just off the east coast of Africa, evidence from genetics, language and culture all attests that it was settled jointly by Africans, and more surprisingly, Indonesians. Nevertheless, extr...

The use of high dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for remission consolidation after initial induction represents standard of care for patients with multiple myeloma. Patients with myeloma and Acquired von Willebrand Syndrome (AVWS) undergoing autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) are at significant risk of bleeding due to the profound thrombocytop...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to describe findings on sequential high resolution computed tomographic (CT) scans of nine patients with non-specific interstitial pneumonia. METHODS Thin section CT scans of nine patients with pathologically proven non-specific interstitial pneumonia were evaluated retrospectively. All patients underwent sequential CT scanning (mean follow up 3.1 year...

compressibility characteristics of fine-grained soils are often the most important parameters for settlement evaluation of the founded layers. the compression index which is the slope of virgin curve is usually for determination of settlement potential of fine grained soils. in this research, the effects of different physical and index properties of soil samples were investigated on compression...
