EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE EFFECTS OF NEW FOAM ON THE IMPROVEMENT OF SANDY SOIL FOR EARTH PRESSURE BALANCE SHIELD

Experimental Study on the Effects of New Foam on the Improvement of Sandy Soil for Earth Pressure Balance Shield

In this paper, starting from the foaming amount, half-life and other indicators, the surfactant with excellent performance is optimized, and the optimal compound ratio and appropriate foam stabilizer, viscosity enhancer, and additives are studied.A new type of foam agent formula for the EPB shield is developed.The performance of the new foam agent

Manipulating the Alpha Level Cannot Cure Significance Testing

We argue that making accept/reject decisions on scientific hypotheses, including a recent call for changing the canonical alpha level from p = 0.05 to p = 0.005, is deleterious for the finding of new discoveries and the progress of science.Given that blanket and variable alpha levels both are problematic, it is sensible to dispense with significanc
