7. Settlement of bored piles with expander body system in lateritic soils
Abstract The Expander Body pile (EB) is a combination of a cast-in-situ pile method with an inflated, pump-grouted tip. The EB system's pioneering conjunction with the conventional drilling pile technique has improved work load, foundation security, cost reductions and abrupt displacements in lateritic, porous, unsaturated soils. The aim of this article is t

12. In silico Risk Assessment Studies of New Psychoactive Substances Derived from Amphetamines and Cathinones
The amount and variety of new psychoactive substances (NPS) are expanding, and there are difficulties in assessing their risks. In this regard, in silico methods are potentially useful to predict NPS properties faster and at a lower cost. In this work a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model was used to verify the risk of drugs derived fro
