The Newcastle Dilatometer (NDMT) developed by Akbar in 2001 has a distinctive feature that it loads the soil with a rigid piston in place of flexible membrane as in the Marchetti Dilatometer (MDMT). Based on the previous research works carried out using the NDMT in normally consolidated soils, it has been found that the material and dilatometer indices from the NDMT data can be used to classify...

Abstract Central Sulawesi Province is one of the areas in Indonesia that prone to large earthquakes. Balaroa, Petobo, and Sibalaya were among most fatalities damaged facilities infrastructure due earthquake on September 28th 2018. Around Balaroa Village, besides huge damages Perumnas Housing, area around housing was also affected, for example Jamur, Kelor, Labu streets, many houses buildings da...

Introduction: Go/NoGo continuous performance task (CPT) is a neuropsychological test designed for measurement of attention and impulsivity and very often associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The aim of this study was to provide current view of test with its application in future psychophysiological research and clinical practise. Methods: The studies regarding CPT we...

In engineering practice, properly characterizing the spatial distribution of soil liquefaction potential and induced surface settlement is essential for seismic hazard assessment mitigation. However, geotechnical site investigations (e.g., cone penetration test (CPT)) usually provide limited sparse data with high accuracy. Geophysical surveys abundant two-dimensional (2D) data, yet their accura...

Data is inconsistent concerning the question whether cognitive-physical training (CPT) yields stronger cognitive gains than cognitive training (CT). Effects of additional counseling, neurobiological mechanisms, and predictors have scarcely been studied. Healthy older adults were trained with CT (n = 20), CPT (n = 25), or CPT with counseling (CPT+C; n = 23). Cognition, physical fitness, BDNF, IG...

objective: the purpose of this study is to compare the executive functions children and adolescents who suffer from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) with normal children. method: twenty children with adhd were compared to 19 healthy children terms of some executive functions using the computerized version of tower london, continuous performance test (cpt), and stroop color test. ...

We consider the consequences for future neutrino factory experiments of small CPT-odd interactions in neutrino oscillations. The nu(&mgr;)-->nu(&mgr;) and nu;(&mgr;)-->nu;(&mgr;) survival probabilities at a baseline L = 732 km can test for CPT-odd contributions at orders of magnitude better sensitivity than present neutrino sector limits. Interference between the CPT-violating interaction and C...

This study was designed to delineate the medullary and spinal pathways mediating the cardiovascular responses to cold pressor test (CPT) and to identify neurotransmitters in these pathways. Experiments were done in barodenervated, urethane-anesthetized, male Wistar rats. The CPT was performed by immersing the limbs and ventral half of the body of the rat in ice-cold water (0.5 degrees C) for 2 ...
