Abstract: Debris flows that entrain sediment by undermining channel beds or scouring channel banks can become exceptionally mobile and destructive. Therefore, the calculation of entrainment plays an important role in debris flow ...

Abstract: This paper presents a numerical scheme for a solid–fluid coupled discrete-element method (DEM) that takes into consideration solid deformation and pore pressure generation and dissipation. Analytical solutions of conventional ...

Abstract: This paper presents a critical state constitutive model for cemented sand. The model uses a single capped yield surface as a function of the void ratio, confining pressure, preconsolidation pressure, and stress ratio at ...

Abstract: Tire-derived aggregate (TDA) has been used in many civil engineering applications. Despite its successful use in the past, the amount of experimental research available on TDA applications is not sufficient to provide data ...
