Discussion of “<i>Liquefaction Evaluation Procedure</i>” by Steve J. Poulos, Gonzalo Castro, and John W. France (June, 1985, Vol. 111, No. 6)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Settlement, Sliding, and Liquefaction Remediation of Layered Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of highly instrumented, large-scale centrifuge models have been tested to investigate the extent of remediation required to control settlement and lateral sliding of soil deposits at a hypothetical bridge site. ...
Centrifuge Modeling of Seismically Induced Uplift for the BART Transbay Tube
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The BART Transbay Tube (TBT) is an immersed cut-and-cover subway tunnel that runs from Oakland to San Francisco, California. The loose sand and gravel backfills placed around the tunnel are considered to be liquefiable, ...
Centrifuge Modeling of Transport Processes for Pollutants in Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The physico‐chemical processes of advection, dispersion, adsorption, and degradation that control pollutant transport processes in groundwater are described. Dimensional analysis is presented, and the scaling requirements ...
Seismically Induced Flow Slide on Centrifuge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Some initial results of centrifuge model tests to examine the mechanism causing flow failure of a less permeable layer resting on a more permeable layer, subjected to seismic loading conditions, is presented. The centrifuge ...
