Electrokinetic Remediation. II: Theoretical Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A mathematical model is presented for multicomponent species transport under coupled hydraulic, electric, and chemical potential differences. Mass balance of species and pore fluid together with charge balance across the ...
Low Strain Dynamic Properties of Artificially Cemented Sand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Torsional resonant column tests are conducted to study the effect of artificial cementation on low strain dynamic properties of Monterey No. 0 sand. Artificially cemented specimens are prepared using 1, 2, and 4% Portland ...
Discussion of “<i>Clay Liner Permeability: Evaluation and Variation</i>” by Kingsley Harrop‐Williams (October, 1985, Vol. 111, No. 10)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Pb(II) Removal from Kaolinite by Electrokinetics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Electro‐osmosis tests are conducted on saturated kaolinite specimens loaded with Pb(II) to investigate the efficiency and energy requirements of the process in removing this heavy metal. Kaolinite specimens were loaded ...
FEM Analysis of Elastic Stress Distributions in Embankments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Elastic stress distributions due to self-weight in embankments are analyzed with the finite element method (FEM). The results are compared with available analytical solutions. It is demonstrated that analytical solutions ...
Electrokinetic Injection of Ammonium and Sulfate Ions into Sand and Kaolinite Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The efficiency of electrokinetic injection of a cation (ammonium) from the anode and an anion (sulfate) from the cathode into a fine-grained sand bed and a kaolinite bed is investigated. Electrodes are placed in chambers ...
Phenol Removal from Kaolinite by Electrokinetics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Electro‐osmosis tests are conducted on saturated kaolinite specimens loaded with phenol at a level of 500 μg/g of dry kaolinite. This amount was below the phenol adsorption capacity of this mineral. The flow behavior and ...
Cone Penetration in Cemented Sands: Bearing Capacity Interpretation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two bearing‐capacity theories are used to predict cone‐penetration tip resistance and sleeve friction in weakly cemented sands. These theories use the rigid‐plastic assumption for stress‐deformation behavior of soils. Both ...
Cone Penetration in Very Weakly Cemented Sand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cone penetration testing in very weakly cemented sands with unconfined compressive strengths of 60 kPa or less is investigated in a calibration chamber. Monterey 0/30 sand is artificially cemented with 1% and 2% portland ...
Closure to “Cone Penetration in Very Weakly Cemented Sand” by Anand J. Puppala, Yalcın B. Acar, and Mehmet T. Tumay
