Highly nutritious lentil proteins (LP) have recently attracted interest in the food industry. However, due to their low solubility, extensive application of LP is severely limited. This study describes a new and successful method for overcoming this challenge by improving nutritional–functional properties LP, particularly solubility protein quality. By combining complexation with water kefir-as...

Background: There is no method to quantify the spatial complexity within colon polyps. This paper describes a spatial transformation that translates the tissue architecture within a polyp, or a normal colon lining, into a complex sinusoid wave composed of discrete points. This sinusoid wave can then undergo the Fast Fourier Transform to obtain a spectrum of frequencies that represents the sinus...

The French national research project SENSO aims at providing a methodology combining several non destructive testing methods to evaluate indicators required for assessing the durability of concrete cover. A large set of 0.5m x 0.25m x 0.12m slabs has been built for various water/cement ratios, aggregate sizes and type. Those slabs have been subsequently studied under controlled water saturation...

Analysis of pile bearing capacity is an important task in the investigation soil-structure interaction. The paper dedicated to prediction methods for calculation based on cone penetration test (CPTu) results, namely UniCone method, Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussées method (LCPC), and involved Eurocode 7—2. A set CFA piles was tested obtain reference capacity. ability determine investig...

Guaranteeing the use of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) in mitigation of extreme load effects requires a deep study of the SMA behavior according to the specific requirements of the application. In particular, for a storm is necessary more than one million of working cycles. It is applied to two realistic cables in ELSA (JRC-Ispra, Italy) and in IFSTTAR (old LCPC in Nantes, France). The measurements ...
