MYCN amplification with subsequent protein overexpression is a powerful indicator of poor prognosis neuroblastoma patients. Little known regarding the prognostic significance homologous MYC expression in neuroblastoma. Immunostaining for and was performed on 357 undifferentiated/poorly differentiated neuroblastomas. Results were analysed other markers. Sixty-seven (19%) tumours MYCN(+), 38 (11%) MYC(+), one(0.3%) had both proteins(+). MYCN(+) MYC(+) more likely diagnosed children>18months...
Spaces for backfills are often constrained and limited to a narrow width when retaining walls must be built close existing stable in urban areas or near rock faces mountainous areas. Estimation of lateral earth pressure acting on the back wall has been typically based classical earth-pressure theories such as Coulomb’s theory Rankine’s theory, which assumes that backfill is sufficiently wide allow full development failure planes backfill. It generally recognized tend significantly...
Despite the fact that adverse health effects due to intake of lead have been well studied and widely recognized, contamination in drinking water has reoccurring worldwide, with some incidents escalating into a public crisis. As is often related lead-based pipes close or inside homes, it not realistic, at least near term, remove replace all connection plumbing. Effective monitoring concentration consumers’ taps remains critical for providing consumers first-hand information preventing...
This study attempts to identify mechanical and physical properties of geogrids that are critical their effectiveness in the stabilisation pavement subgrade. Geogrid properties, including aperture size, wide-width tensile strength junction strength, for four geogrid products correlated with bench-scale interface test results, direct shear pull-out, accelerated testing (APT) results. APT is conducted through use a one-third scale device, model mobile load simulator (MMLS3) on...
Pesticides released into the environment are increasingly recognized as a global threat to freshwater ecosystems because of their adverse effects on non-target organisms, particularly aquatic insects and other arthropods. Superoxide dismutases (SODs) important antioxidant enzymes that play crucial role in protecting organisms from oxidative stress induced by harmful materials. In this study, we identified 2 cellular SODs (PxSOD1 PxSOD2) Protohermes xanthodes Navás (Megaloptera: Corydalidae),...
This paper presents the findings from an ongoing research study that evaluated two recently developed geosynthetic products: a triaxial geogrid and high-strength woven geotextile for reinforcing or stabilizing roads constructed over native soft soil in state of Louisiana. Six full-scale test lane sections were constructed: reinforced by one layers geogrids, respectively, while was used to reinforce other with aggregate different thicknesses. The remaining left as controls: sand embankment 30...
A slip-failure surface forms in the backfill soil upon sufficient yielding or movement of wall that retains soil. The shape plays an important role estimating lateral earth pressure, including its magnitude and location resultant force. As retaining walls at times must be built with narrow constrained space, this study presents analytic derivation slip-surface cohesionless behind a rigid under translation mode wall. Results series experimental tests were presented to demonstrate effects...
Geogrids have been investigated by a limited number of studies as potential alternative to steel reinforcement for Portland cement concrete (PCC), especially in situations where using may not be suitable due constructability and durability limitations. This study aims investigate the flexural behavior simply-supported beams reinforced geogrids, which would aid assessing use geogrids structures such overlays other thin sections. Another objective this is examine benefits embedding PCC,...
The benefits of geogrids in reducing permanent deformation flexible pavements are generally recognized and have been shown numerous studies. In contrast, although resilient moduli unbound materials important property inputs mechanistic–empirical pavement design, the impact on behavior layers remains unclear from previous This paper focuses subgrades modified by at base–subgrade interface. Two sets tests were conducted scaled built over two types soil. Each set consisted four sections. Three...

Numerous studies have revealed the benefits of using geogrids in a flexible pavement, especially for reducing permanent deformation. One questions that remain about effectiveness geogrid reinforcing pavement is extent to which engaged and mobilized throughout its service. This paper presents results laboratory study on various products embedded flexible-pavement sections. The laboratory-scale sections were subjected cyclic moving wheel loads by reduced-scale accelerated testing (APT). During...
This study focuses on investigating the lateral behavior of a particular type two-pile group foundations embedded in steep and weathered rock slopes. Laboratory load tests were conducted scaled model piles installed slopes various angles. The instrumented with strain gages at different depths while pile head deflections measured by dial gages. Results indicate that angle slope plays an influential role bending moments. Using p-y curve method for rock-pile interaction analysis, analytical...
This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of using various geogrid products to improve permanent deformation resistance in soft subgrade soils commonly encountered during roadway construction Pennsylvania. Permanent behaviours both with and without inclusion geogrids were investigated. Cyclic moving wheel loads applied through a reduced-scale accelerated pavement testing (APT) device, one-third-scale model mobile load simulator (MMLS3). Tests conducted two soil types, each modified...
Wear testing of pavement markings in the United States is commonly performed by AASHTO's National Transportation Product Evaluation Program. The evaluated this program are applied a transverse manner along existing roadways, and variety objective measures collected over 2-year period. This paper reports findings from an exploratory study on using Model Mobile Load Simulator, third scale (MMLS3), to evaluate marking performance test sections. Accelerated trafficking wet dry surfaces was...
Over the decades, geogrids have been increasingly used in flexible pavements primarily for base reinforcement and subgrade improvement. Yet most of existing methods designing a geogrid-modified pavement are largely empirically based limited to type geogrid products certain conditions. With recent release new design program by AASHTO, DARWin-ME, mechanistic-empirical (ME) approach is becoming routine practice analysis design. Recognizing that ME concept provides more rational realistic...
With the movement towards implementation of mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG), an accurate determination layer moduli is vital for predicting critical mechanistic responses. A backcalculation procedure commonly used to estimate based on non-destructive falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests. Backcalculation flexible properties inverse problem with known input and output signals upon which unknown parameters system are evaluated. In this study, analysis that combines...
