ABSTRACTIndonesia is a country located in the most active earthquake paths in the world. This makes Indonesia prone to earthquakes and has the potential to experience liquefaction. Liquefaction can cause pile failure, so several things need to be considered in designing piles on potentially liquefied soils. One project in Sulawesi has a profile of uniform grained saturated soil that is susceptible to liquefaction. Two things that need to be considered in the design of piles on potentially liquefied soils is to ignore the capacity of pile friction and calculate the moment due to lateral spreading effects. Calculation of liquefaction potential is done by comparing the ratio of the cyclic stress and the cyclic resistance ratio and is compared by four other methods namely: the Seed et al. (2003), Tsuchida (1970), Seed et al. (2003), and Bray & Sancio (2004). The lateral spreading effect is calculated by referring to the JRA Code where the liquefied soil layer gives pressure to the pile at 30% of the overburden stress and the soil layer above the liquefied soil gives passive soil pressure to the pole. The moment effect caused by lateral spreading results in the addition of dimensions or number of poles.Keywords: liquefaction; lateral spreading; bearing capacity; JRA Code; pile foundationABSTRAKIndonesia adalah negara yang terletak di jalur gempa teraktif di dunia. Hal ini menyebabkan Indonesia rawan gempa dan memiliki potensi untuk mengalami likuifaksi. Likuifaksi dapat menyebabkan kerusakan/kegagalan struktur yang sangat merugikan, sehingga perlu diperhatikan beberapa hal dalam merancang tiang pada tanah berpotensi likuifaksi. Salah satu proyek di Sulawesi memiliki profil tanah pasir berbutir seragam dan jenuh air yang memiliki potensi likuifaksi. Dua hal yang perlu diperhitungkan dalam perancangan tiang pada tanah berpotensi likuifaksi adalah mengabaikan daya dukung friksi tiang dan memperhitungkan momen akibat efek lateral spreading. Perhitungan potensi likuifaksi dilakukan dengan membandingkan rasio tegangan siklik (CSR) dan rasio hambatan siklik (CRR) serta dibandingkan dengan empat metode lainnya yaitu: metode Seed et al. (2003), Tsuchida (1970), Seed et al. (2003), dan Bray & Sancio (2004). Daya dukung aksial pada tiang pancang mengalami pengurangan 32% akibat lapisan tanah yang terlikuifaksi. Efek lateral spreading dihitung dengan acuan JRA Code dimana lapisan tanah terlikuifaksi memberikan tekanan ke tiang sebesar 30% dari tegangan overburden dan lapisan tanah di atas tanah terlikuifaksi memberikan tekanan tanah pasif ke tiang. Efek momen yang diakibatkan oleh lateral spreading mengakibatkan penambahan dimensi ataupun jumlah tiang.Kata kunci: likuifaksi; lateral spreading; daya dukung; JRA Code; fondasi tiang

Liquefied Soils

Soil liquefaction during strong ground shaking results in almost a complete loss of strength and stiffness in the liquefied soil, and consequent large ground deformation. Characteristics of the liquefied soils and loads on piles are significantly different during the cyclic phase and in the subsequent lateral spreading phase. Thus, it is necessary to separately consider these two phases in the simplified analysis of piles. This paper describes a practical procedure for preliminary assessment of piles subjected to lateral spreading. Effects of a crust of non-liquefied soil at the ground surface, properties of liquefied soils and pile groups are discussed in relation to their modelling in the simplified pseudo-static analysis approach. Particular attention is given to the treatment of unknowns and uncertainties involved in the simplified analysis and the need for parametric studies.

IntroductionSeveral methods of mounting emulsion for radioautography at the electron microscopic level have been reported. From the viewpoint of quantitative radioautography, however, there are many critical problems in the procedure to produce radioautographs. For example, it is necessary to apply and develop emulsions in several experimental groups under an identical condition. Moreover, it is necessary to treat a lot of grids at the same time in the dark room for statistical analysis. Since the complicated process and technical difficulties in these procedures are inadequate to conduct a quantitative analysis of many radioautographs at once, many factors may bring about unexpected results. In order to improve these complicated procedures, a simplified dropping method for mass production of radioautographs under an identical condition was previously reported. However, this procedure was not completely satisfactory from the viewpoint of emulsion homogeneity. This paper reports another improved procedure employing wire loops.

Fractured Surface

To bring out details in the fractured surface of a frozen sample in the freeze fracture/freeze-etch technique,the sample or part of it is warmed to enhance water sublimation.One way to do this is to raise the temperature of the entire sample to about -100°C to -90°C. In this case sublimation rates can be calculated by using plots such as Fig.1 (Talmon and Thomas),or by simplified formulae such as that given by Menold and Liittge. To achieve higher rates of sublimation without heating the entire sample a radiative heater can be used (Echlin et al.). In the present paper a simplified method for the calculation of the rates of sublimation under a constant heat flux F [W/m2] at the surface of the sample from a heater placed directly above the sample is described.

SummaryAim: For the therapeutic application of radiopharmaceuticals the activity is determined on an individual basis. Here we investigated the accuracy for a simplified assessment of the residence times for a 188Re-labelled anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody. Patients, methods: For 49 patients with high risk leukaemia (24 men, 25 women, age: 44 ± 12 years) the residence times were determined for the injected 188Re-labelled anti-CD66 antibodies (1.3 ± 0.4 GBq, 5–7 GBq/mg protein, >95% 188Re bound to the antibody) based on 5 measurements (1.5, 3, 20, 26, and 44 h p.i.) using planar conjugate view gamma camera images (complete method). In a simplified method the residence times were calculated based on a single measurement 3 h p.i. Results: The residence times for kidneys, liver, red bone marrow, spleen and remainder of body for the complete method were 0.4 ± 0.2 h, 1.9 ± 0.8 h, 7.8 ± 2.1 h, 0.6 ± 0.3 h and 8.6 ± 2.1 h, respectively. For all organs a linear correlation exists between the residence times of the complete method and the simplified method with the slopes (correlation coefficients R > 0.89) of 0.89, 0.99, 1.23, 1.13 and 1.09 for kidneys, liver, red bone marrow, spleen and remainder of body, respectively. Conclusion: The proposed approach allows reliable prediction of biokinetics of 188Re-labelled anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody biodistribution with a single study. Efficient pretherapeutic estimation of organ absorbed dose may be possible, provided that a more stable anti-CD66 antibody preparation is available.

ABSTRACT Serum thyroxine concentrations were determined in 66 euthyroid, 30 hyperthyroid and 13 hypothyroid patients using both the established Murphy method and a simplified method of competitive protein binding analysis. A diagnosis compatibility of 96% was found with both methods indicating that the simplified method has comparable clinical application as an initial screen of thyroid status.
