Abstract: The performance of embankment slopes along a section of I‐77 is summarized. Slope failures occurred mostly in embankments constructed of red shales of the Conemaugh, Monongahela, and Washington formations. Soil moisture, ...

Abstract: A procedure combining the dynamic stiffness method with the Laplace transform is proposed to obtain accurate transient responses of an arch with variable curvature. The dynamic stiffness matrix and equivalent nodal force ...

Abstract: Proper material constitutive models for concrete-filled tube (CFT) columns are proposed and verified by the nonlinear finite element program
