Liquefiable Ground Treatment Using Cruciform Section Probe Resonant Compaction Method: A Case Study in the Xitong Expressway, Eastern China by Guangyin Du, Han Xia, Jun Cai, Huangsong Pan, Changshen Sun

“…The CSPRCM has wider applicability than traditional vibrating compaction methods, especially for sites with a high content of silt and clay particles. The strengthening mechanism of the CSPRCM is a vibration hammer that generates vibrational energy to obliterate the original soil structure and render the sand completely liquefied; the soil particles then rearrange to form a new structure.…”

Risk Factors for Endothelial Decompensation after Penetrating Keratoplasty and Its Novel Therapeutic Strategies by Mengyuan Liu, Jing Hong

“…Operative factors like graft size and recipient factors such as indications, glaucoma, or glaucoma surgery history are highly associated with the occurrence of endothelial decompensation, while others are still under investigation. Although the mechanism of these risk factors remains unclear, pathogenesis can be summarized as an acute and chronic loss of endothelium, and cell exchange between donor and recipient is at the core of chronic cell loss. …”
