Sheet piling is an earth retention and excavation support technique that retains soil, using steel sheet sections with interlocking edges. Sheet piles are installed in sequence to design depth along the planned excavation perimeter or seawall alignment.
Replication (statistics) In engineering, science, and statistics, replication is the repetition of an experimental condition so that the variability associated with the phenomenon can be estimated. ASTM, in standard E1847, defines replication as the repetition of the set of all the treatment combinations to be compared in an experiment.
Replication/Transcription/Translation. Replication is the process in which a cell makes an exact copy of its own DNA (copy DNA -> DNA). Replication occurs in the S-fase in preparation to cell division during which the genetic information for the synthesis of proteins is transfered from the mothercell to the daughtercell.
