Abstract: This study tests the physical and mechanical properties of fresh bamboo to explore its suitability for reinforcing the embankment of a highway. A series of experiments is performed using a bamboo species (Sinocalamus ...

Abstract: Conduits, the main channels within a rock mass, can significantly affect the permeability characteristics of rock masses. This paper presents a Stokes–Brinkman–Darcy coupling model to study the permeability characteristics ...

Abstract: Vugs and fractures are the main channels within porous rock aquifers and play a dominant role in the water inrush of the karst tunnel. In this paper, a mathematical model of the coupled free-fluid seepage-fluid with ...

Abstract: Sandy cobble soil is a composite made of soil matrix and cobbles, and the estimation of its shear strength always requires expensive large-scale experiments. The strength of the sandy cobble soil exhibits macroscopic ...

Abstract: Based on an actual engineering case, this study focused on the limit support pressure, instability mechanism, and instability failure mode of the excavation face in the sand pebble stratum when crossing below the Yellow ...

Abstract: Fine particle migration is common in loose slopes with wide gradation characteristics under rainfall infiltration conditions. The seepage characteristics and stability of loose soil slopes are affected by the migration of ...
