In shield tunnel boring machine constructions, backfill pressure affects surface settlement and the stability of other underground structures nearby.Therefore, it is essential to pre-calculate backfill pressure in the design stage.This study Ski de fond - Accessoires - Pieces de rechange examines and compares the seven internationally known backfil
The vigorous cytokine response Bandana Bib of immune cells to Gram-negative bacteria is primarily mediated by a recognition molecule, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which recognizes lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and initiates a series of intracellular NF-kappaB-associated signaling events.Recently, bladder epithelial cells (BECs) were reported to express
This paper presents a study on the effect of unit-cell geometrical parameters in predicting elastic properties of a typical wood plastic composite (WPC).The ultimate goal was obtaining the optimal values of representative volume element (RVE) parameters to accurately predict the mechanical behavior of the WPC.For each unit cell, defined by a given
A cross-sectional survey was conducted to determine the relative rankings of 17 key components in an undergraduate program.The degree of discrepancy between curricular content and that of student and pharmacist expectations was also of interest.An online questionnaire was emailed to both groups in one Canadian province.Respondents considered four q
