  2. Dynamic load testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_load_testing

    Dynamic load testing (or dynamic loading) is a method to assess a pile's bearing capacity by applying a dynamic load to the pile head (a falling mass) while recording acceleration and strain on the pile head. Dynamic load testing is a high strain dynamic test which can be applied after pile installation for concrete piles. For steel or timber ...

  3. Pile integrity test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pile_integrity_test

    Pile integrity testing using low-strain tests such as the TDR (Transient Dynamic Response) method, is a rapid way of assessing the continuity and integrity of concrete piled foundations. The test measures: pile length, or depth to anomalies; pile head stiffness; pile shaft mobility, which is dependent on pile section and concrete properties

  4. Deep foundation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_foundation

    A pile or piling is a vertical structural element of a deep foundation, driven or drilled deep into the ground at the building site. Deep foundations of The Marina Torch, a skyscraper in Dubai. There are many reasons that a geotechnical engineer would recommend a deep foundation over a shallow foundation, such as for a skyscraper.

  5. Wide Range Achievement Test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_Range_Achievement_Test

    The Wide Range Achievement Test, currently in its fifth edition (WRAT5), is an achievement test which measures an individual's ability to read words, comprehend sentences, spell, and compute solutions to math problems. [1] The test is appropriate for individuals aged 5 years through adult. The WRAT5 provides two equivalent forms (Blue and Green ...

  6. Further Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Further_Mathematics

    A qualification in Further Mathematics involves studying both pure and applied modules. Whilst the pure modules (formerly known as Pure 4–6 or Core 4–6, now known as Further Pure 1–3, where 4 exists for the AQA board) build on knowledge from the core mathematics modules, the applied modules may start from first principles.

  7. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    The apparent plural form in English goes back to the Latin neuter plural mathematica , based on the Greek plural ta mathēmatiká (τὰ μαθηματικά) and means roughly "all things mathematical", although it is plausible that English borrowed only the adjective mathematic(al) and formed the noun mathematics anew, after the pattern of ...

  8. Piling-up lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piling-up_lemma

    In cryptanalysis, the piling-up lemma is a principle used in linear cryptanalysis to construct linear approximations to the action of block ciphers.It was introduced by Mitsuru Matsui (1993) as an analytical tool for linear cryptanalysis. [1]

  9. Period (algebraic geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(algebraic_geometry)

    In mathematics, specifically algebraic geometry, a period or algebraic period [1] is a complex number that can be expressed as an integral of an algebraic function over an algebraic domain. The periods are a class of numbers which includes, alongside the algebraic numbers, many well known mathematical constants such as the number π .
