Adapted from the Norwegian model, the OBRSS awards individual academic staff using a points system based on the number of publications and doctoral students. This article describes the design and implementation processes of the OBRSS, including the creation of the ranked publication list and points system and infrastructure requirements. Some results of the OBRSS will be presented, focusing on the coverage of publications reported in the OBRSS ranked publication list and Scopus, as well as information about spending patterns. Challenges such as the evaluation of the OBRSS in terms of fairness, transparency, and effectiveness will also be discussed.展开更多

Before the construction of foundation, the foundation should be excavated first. In order to prevent soil collapse, the foundation pit needs to be reinforced, among which the safety of deep foundation pit is particularly important. If the supporting structure of deep foundation pit is unqualified or non-standard, it will cause serious consequences. Therefore, the quality and safety of deep foundation pit support structure should attract the attention of relevant construction personnel. According to different geological conditions, formulate appropriate support schemes, and apply the existing construction technology to make the foundation pit stable and safe, which lays a foundation for later construction projects.展开更多
