Abstract: This study presents the results of interface torsional ring shear tests conducted at intermediate normal stress levels that are usually prevalent at soil–pipeline interfaces under near-shore conditions. Four normally ...

Abstract: Muskeg soil is widespread in Canada. It covers around 15% of the Canadian landscape. Its problematic nature is attributed to its high compressibility and low shear strength when subjected to loads because of its high initial ...
