The mechanism of grouting action under the base of bored pile
PublicationThe grouting under the base of bored pile is carried out in order to reduce pile settlement and improve its bearing capacity. The principal aim of grouting is to introduce an initial force between the soil and the pile base. In non-cohesive soil, the grouting can also enlarge the pile base area and therefore improve the base resistance. The example of static load tests on instrumented bored piles installed with and without grouting...

Evaluating Asymmetric N-Grams as Spell-Checking Mechanism
PublicationTypical approaches to string comparing marks two strings as either different or equal without taking into account any similarity measures. Being able to judge similarity is however required for spelling error corrections, as we want to find the best match for a given word. In this paper we present a bi2quadro-grams method for spelling errors correction. The method proposed uses different n-grams dimension for the source (checked)...

A Population-Based Method with Selection of a Search Operator
PublicationThis paper presents a method based on a population in which the parameters of individuals can be processed by operators from various population-based algorithms. The mechanism of selecting operators is based on the introduction of an additional binary parameters vector located in each individual, on the basis of which it is decided which operators are to be used to modify individuals’ parameters. Thus, in the proposed approach,...

Nonlinear dynamic analysis of the pure “buckling” mechanism during blow-out trauma of the human orbit
PublicationConsidering the interplay between orbital bones and intraorbital soft tissues, commonly accepted patterns of the blow-out type of trauma within the human orbit require more thorough investigation to assess the minimal health-threatening impact value. Two different three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) models of the human orbital region were developed to simulate the pure “buckling” mechanism of orbital wall fracture in...

Assestment of the anti-cancer activity of the copper complexes with imidazole and pivalato ligands
PublicationDespite the development of science and technology progress so far there have not been found effective drugs for cancer. Many coordination compounds were investigated due to their antitumor potential. The most known cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) is used as anti-cancer therapeutic agent. The copper complexes are the coordination compounds possessing anti-tumour properties. Their capability to kill cancer cells is mainly linked...

The relationship between standard reduction potentials of catechins and biological activities involved in redox control
PublicationRedox homeostasis involves factors that ensure proper function of cells. The excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) leads to oxidative stress and increased risk of oxidative damage to cellular components. In contrast, upon reductive stress, insufficient ROS abundance may result in faulty cell signalling. It may be expected that dietary antioxidants, depending on their standard reduction potentials (E°), will affect both scenarios....

Mechanism of antifreeze protein functioning and the “anchored clathrate water” concept
PublicationIn liquid water, there is a natural tendency to form aggregates that consist of water molecules linked by hydrogen bonds. Such spontaneously formed aggregates are surrounded by a "sea" of disordered water molecules, with both forms remaining in equilibrium. The process of creating water aggregates also takes place in the solvation water of proteins, but in this case the interactions of water molecules with the protein surface shift...
