This study reports a multifunctional nanoparticle (NP) that can be used for amplified magnetic resonance image (MRI)-guided photothermal therapy (PTT) due to its surface coating with polydopamine (PDA) shell. Importantly, by means of introducing the PDA, large quantities water trapped around NPs allowing more efficient exchange, leading greatly improved MR contrast signals compared those from without PDA coating. Further, distinct effect obtained arising strong absorption in near-infrared...

Recently, tetrapod piled jacket (TPJ) foundations have shown considerable promise in offshore developments, due to the increases power capacity and water depth for wind turbines. This paper presents a set of centrifuge tests look into lateral loading behaviour TPJ sand, with overall load–displacement responses foundation as well soil resistance internal forces on or within individual piles being examined carefully. Test results show that back-row are more likely be pulled out when is loaded...

Synergistically enhancing the erosion and impact resistance of contacts poses a significant challenge for cutting-edge electrical equipment. Fortunately, mollusk shells in nature have evolved effective strategies to construct microstructures with superior resistance. Inspired by structure nacre, Ag-SnO2 contact material hierarchical architectures has been designed fabricated. The mechanistic link between microstructural evolution dynamic is studied through experiments combined Computational...

A program of centrifuge model tests conducted on the cyclic lateral behavior a tetrapod piled jacket (TPJ) foundation for offshore wind turbines (OWTs) in medium dense sand was reported. The key parameters investigated were loading direction, load amplitude, and type (i.e., one- or two-way loading) terms overall response TPJ more detailed pile-soil interaction. Under small- moderate-amplitude loads, that is, 20% 40% bearing capacity, respectively, along diagonal direction had pronounced...

This paper considers the axial resistances of open-ended, highly instrumented, 763 mm diameter steel pipe piles driven in sands for EURIPIDES (EURopean Initiative on PIles DEnse Sands) project at a well-characterized research site Eemshaven, northern Netherlands. It offers new analyses previously unreported dynamic tests and their relationship with four heavily instrumented static compression tests. Rigorous signal matching employing two distinct pile–soil interaction models is reported,...

There is a strong incentive to enhance in-situ ground characterisation tools provide additional data that supports early infrastructure design in engineering projects, prior completion of laboratory element testing on borehole samples. Advances robotic technology allow soil deformation modes be probed by integrating cylindrical section cone capable horizontal translation into an expanded standard penetrometer, referred here as ROBOCONE p-y module, which can mimic the load and displacement...

Chalk is encountered under large areas of Northern Europe and other locations worldwide, a wide range onshore offshore structures are founded on piles driven in chalk. The safe economical design these challenging because current uncertainties regarding their axial capacity load-displacement behavior. This work builds recent research into the open-ended by proposing new shaft base load transfer models for chalk that employ geotechnical properties measured directly laboratory in-situ tests....
