Abstract: During many earthquakes, soil liquefaction causes dramatic damage. The use of a granular column is a ground-improvement technique used to mitigate soil liquefaction. The present paper studies the performance of reinforcement ...

Abstract: An analytical model dealing with the problem of an expanded cylindrical cavity in an elastoplastic medium is presented. The constitutive material is assumed to be weightless, homogeneous, and isotropic; its resistance is ...

Abstract: This paper studies the effect of certain parameters closely related to the design of column foundations such as the improvement area ratio, especially at low values, e.g., 1 and 4%, and the grain size of the column material ...
