Abstract: Tunnel excavation in cohesionless soils implies the use of a temporary supporting structure prior to lining installation. This temporary structure has to couple safety and economy, and can be conveniently realized using ...

Abstract: Postshaking soil volumetric strains of liquefiable soils are of technical interest because they cause a relevant part of the total settlements experienced by the site of interest. In the case of liquefiable intermediate ...

Abstract: Induced partial saturation (IPS) is considered to be one of the most promising technologies to tackle soil liquefaction risk. The mitigation of the liquefaction susceptibility of loose partially saturated sandy soils is ...
