Abstract: Moreover, a two-dimensional finite-element model has been developed by incorporating unloading-reloading responses into the monotonic load-transfer curves to define the soil–energy pile interaction during heat exchange ...

Abstract: A pair of large centrifuge tests was conducted to evaluate the effect of soil-cement grid reinforcement on the seismic response of a deep soft soil profile. The soil profile consisted of a 23-m-thick layer of lightly ...

Abstract: This paper presents the performance of a shopping complex in Turkey where the soils were improved with jet-grout columns and preload fills and subjected to the 1999 Kocaeli Earthquake

Abstract: Four centrifuge tests were performed to investigate the reinforcing mechanisms of soil-cement columns in liquefiable sand. Two unimproved baseline models and two models improved with soil-cement columns were subjected to ...
