Abstract: The development of matric suctions in soils contributes to their shear strength, resulting in an enhanced factor of safety against bearing-capacity failure. In this paper, matric suction profiles of desiccated mine tailings ...

Abstract: The relative magnitudes of the celerities at which disturbances on the water surface and the bed are propagated play a key role in the mathematical modeling of mobile bed flow. Earlier analyses assumed that the solids ...

Abstract: Although several studies observed pavement responses after flooding, no detailed quantification has been done to date. This paper has estimated different pavements’ performances with flooding to identify flood-resilient ...

Abstract: Installation of granular columns is a cost-effective and versatile in situ technique to improve the shear strength, settlement, and drainage behavior of weak soils. It involves backfilling vertical boreholes in the ground ...
