The involvement of inductive and capacitive-like phase shifts in the gravitational interaction, the exploration of swapping between parameters of time and space, and the provision of a way to handle imaginary terms. The existence of phase shifts in the gravitational interaction is documented via re-interpretation of older quantitative predictions, and is specifically linked to the Higgs field mechanism. Same as in electronics, a phase shift splits energy into real and imaginary coordinates. This allows to quantitatively treat inertia as an inductive-like potential, alongside the swapping of parameters of time and space. That also allows to treat the Bernoulli pressure in quantitative analogy to a magnetic potential, as well as barrier penetration in quantitative symmetry to the crossing of displacement-current through a capacitor. The findings shed light on how fields & forces, including reaction forces function, while the role of imaginary numbers is analyzed. Interaction of fields with quantum particles is discussed to involve a Fourier-series effect that results in energy quantization. The role of phase shifts becomes essential in bridging between wave nature and effects of relativity, and the Weinberg angle is explained to have the role of an inductive-like shift. The precise value of this angle is proposed to link to elementary particles’ properties like spin, or the value of quarks’ charge. Symmetries introduced allow to address the abundance of matter over antimatter in certain analogy to theory from electronics, to address galaxy rotation curves through an interaction involving negative energy, and more. The new concepts open up room for advancements in energy exploitation over interdisciplinary areas.展开更多

A comparison was made between model test results and the obtained solutions to show their validity. The calculation results indicate that the horizontal displacement and bending moment of the pile increase with increases of the axial and lateral loads. The maximum horizontal displacement and bending moment decrease by 37.9% and 13.9%, respectively, when the elastic modulus of soil increases from 4 MPa to 20 MPa. The Poisson ratio of soil plays a marginal role in pile responses. There is a critical pile length under the ground, beyond which the pile behaves as though it was infinitely long. The presented solutions can make allowance for the continuous nature of soil, and if condition permits, they can approach exact ones.展开更多

It was found that piles deformed elastically under reservoir operation, and the soil in front of piles was gradually separated from piles. The movement of the pile heads exceeded that of the soil between and behind piles. This phenomenon was further studied by a large-scale physical model test to gain insights into the pile-soil interaction. The displacement relationship between pile heads and the surrounding soil is in good agreement with the field data. The physical model test shows that the deformation process of pile-reinforced landslides can be divided into two stages: firstly, when the piles head movement exceeds soil movement, the soil arching is mainly affected by the deflection of the piles, the arches between and behind piles bent upwards;but when the soil movement exceeds piles head movement, the arches near the upslope and downslope bent downwards and upwards, respectively. Furthermore, the different deformation of two adjacent piles and the pile stiffness influenced the arch’s shape and formation;the flexible piles exhibit great coordinated deformation with the landslide, and caused the soil arch on the downslope.展开更多

The analysis varies the parameters of amplitude ratio of earthquake excitation, the period of the superstructure, and the coefficient of friction in the sliding support. Numerical results show that the sliding structure is significantly influenced by the interaction of frictional forces. So the sliding displacement may be underestimated and the acceleration of the superstructure may be overrated if the bidirectional interaction of frictional forces is neglected.展开更多
