the pull- out strength of the reinforcement has a significant role on the function of the most reinforced soil structures. since the coarse grain soils have a better interaction with the reinforcement, they are mostly used in these structures. in most situations, we have to transfer these granular soils from the borrow area, usually far from the site of the project. this will impose a considera...

the load transfer mechanisms of cable bolts differ from those for normal rebar bolts. the cable bolts used in mines are basically steel strands with different constructions depending on the number of wires or elements and the way they are laid. tendon bolts (rebar and cable) are normally evaluated for their strength and load transfer properties. the tendon strength can be evaluated by the tensi...

Spinal disorders cover a broad spectrum of pathologies and are among the most prevalent medical conditions. The management these health issues was noted to be increasingly based on surgical interventions. fixation devices often employed improve surgery outcomes, increasing spinal stability, restoring structural integrity, ensuring functionality. However, currently used tools fabricated from mat...
