Biological Considerations in Geotechnical Engineering
The understanding of soil behavior during the last 300 years has centered on mechanical principles, geological processes, and later on, mineralogy and the relevance of colloidal chemistry. More recently, research in biology and earth science has enabled important advances in understanding the crucial involvement of microorganisms in the evolution of the earth, their ubiquitous presence in near ...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Assist Devices: Engineering Design Considerations
Patients with end-stage congestive heart failure awaiting heart transplantation often wait long periods of time (300 days or more on the average) before a suitable donor heart becomes available. The medical community has placed increased emphasis on the use of Left Ventricular Assist Devices or LVADs that can substitute for, or enhance, the function of the natural heart while the patient is wai...
متن کاملPlacebo Acupuncture Devices: Considerations for Acupuncture Research
Determining an appropriate control for use in acupuncture research remains one of the largest methodological challenges acupuncture researchers face. In general, acupuncture controls fall under one of two categories: (1) sham acupuncture, in which the skin is punctured with real acupuncture needles either fully at nonacupoint locations or shallowly at acupoint locations or both and (2) placebo ...
متن کاملResearch Tools and Architectural Considerations for Future Gnss Receivers
Satellite navigation has emerged to be one of our every-day technologies, like wireless communication. The U.S. based Global Positioning System, better known as GPS, was the first system to serve civilian users. Today, GPS is under modernization, Europe has devoted a lot of effort to build their own system, called Galileo, and activities around Russian GLONASS system are also being re-initiated...
