Testing CPT And Antigravity With Trapped Antihydrogen At ALPHA
… is of primary interest for precision tests of CPT invariance - one of the most important symmetries of the Standard Model. In particular, the 1S-2S transition frequency in hydrogen is the most precisely known quantity in Physics thus measuring the same quantity with antihydrogen provides the …

The use of CPT for calculating axial capacity of drilled shafts
… of drilled shafts, (2) to evaluate available CPT methods, and (3) to develop procedures that rely on CPT resistance to calculate side and tip capacity of drilled shafts. A database of 95 full-scale drilled shaft load tests has been collected for this study. The database consists of 48 load …

Improving CPT-Based Earthquake Liquefaction Hazard Assessment at Challenging Soil Sites
… in-situ tests like the Cone Penetration Test (CPT). While CPT-based procedures have been shown to accurately predict liquefaction occurrence in homogenous, sandy soil profiles, they tend to over-predict the occurrence of liquefaction in challenging, highly interlayered soil profiles. One …

A Predictive Modeling Approach for Assessing Seismic Soil Liquefaction Potential Using CPT Data
<p>Soil liquefaction, or loss of strength due to excess pore water pressures generated during dynamic loading, is a main cause of damage during earthquakes. When a soil liquefies (referred to as triggering), it may lose its ability to support overlying structures, deform vertically or laterally, or …

Review of CPT based design methods for estimating axial capacity of driven piles in siliceous sand
… decades, have shown better agreement with recent CPT based design criteria, than with conventional American Petroleum Institute (API) earth pressure approach design guidelines. The CPT based design methods provide a more coherent framework for incorporating soil dilation, pile size effect, pile …

A atuação da Comissão Pastoral da Terra (CPT) em Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ: Uma análise do Assentamento Zumbi dos Palmares
… da década de 1970 que culminou na criação da CPT (Comissão Pastoral da Terra) como um serviço específico para atender demandas dos trabalhadores rurais envolvidos em conflitos na luta pela terra. Este trabalho analisa a atuação da Comissão Pastoral da Terra (CPT) no processo de reforma agrária …

Continuous Processing Task (CPT) performance in children with attention deficit disorder with and without hyperactivity: effects of rate and control of pacing
… (n=l2) children on a continuous processing task (CPT). In the CPT, each child was exposed to fast (500ms), medium (l0O0ms), slow (2000mS), and self-paced conditions. Performance was measured as number of omission errors, number of commission errors, number of specific types of commission errors, …

Effects of several abiotic and biotic factors and plant hormones on growth, morophology, and camptothecin accumulation in Camptotheca acuminata seedlings
… and secondary metabolite, camptothecin (CPT, an anti-cancer compound) accumulation in Camptotheca acuminata. Five experiments were conducted with C. acuminata seedlings in a hydroponic system with commercial media and fluorescent lights and at 22-26 °C to investigate the effects of these …

Cone penetration testing in polar snow
Innovative Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) using adapted commercial CPT equipment was conducted in Antarctica in early 2010 in an attempt to assess the strength of polar snow; additionally, application of CPT data was considered, particularly in estimating surface bearing capacity. Almost 100 CPT …

Investigating the neuroendocrine and hemodynamic responses to physical and psychological stress tasks and their effects on endothelial-dependent flow mediated vasodilation using a sustained stimulus
… pressor test with and without social evaluation (CPT, CPT+SE) and 2) to examine the impact of these stressors and cortisol elevation on EX-FMD. 59 healthy male subjects were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: TSST, CPT, or CPT+SE. Brachial artery EX-FMD was assessed before, 15 and 35min …

Gender differences in cardiovascular reactivity: effects of the gender relevance of the stressor
… (<u>N</u> = 95) to the cold-pressor test (CPT) was compared under masculine-relevant and gender-neutral stressor instructions during an anticipation phase, a stressor phase, and a recovery phase. Men were expected to show greater CVR than women to the masculine-relevant CPT, but not to the …

Thermal curing of concrete with conductive polymer technology.
… a unique Conductive Polymer Technology (CPT). The application and optimisation of the CPT material to provide heat curing to concrete within the laboratory, in-situ and within precast concrete plants has been investigated. The electrical properties of the CPT were investigated to …

Cognitive Processing Therapy and Trauma-Related Negative Cognitions: Relationship and Effect on Treatment
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is based on the theory that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disorder of non-recovery after an exposure to a qualifying trauma. This non-recovery results in assimilated and overaccomodated trauma-related cognitions which negatively affects an individual's …

Heading Disorientation in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment is Correlated with Hypometabolism in the Posterior Cingulate Cortex
… in the part A of the card-placing test (CPT) but impaired performance in the part B of the CPT. It was insisted that the part A of the CPT assesses egocentric disorientation whereas part B examines heading disorientation. However, the test has not yet been used in any larger population. …

Improving Understanding of Cognitive Processing Therapy: Patterns and Predictors of Symptom Change
… sexual traumas. Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) has been identified as one of the most effective PTSD treatments, and is the only treatment validated for veterans with MST-related PTSD. Existing research has emphasized studying pre-post change in total PTSD symptom severity; however, PTSD …

The choice-theoretic characterizations of risk changes and risk attitudes in cumulative prospect theory : a stochastic dominance approach
… The emergence of the cumulative prospect theory (CPT), developed by Kahneman and Tversky (1979) and Tversky and Kahneman (1992), provides a prominent alternative to the expected utility theory. This thesis aims to provide a choice-theoretic characterization for risk changes and risk attitudes …
