Abstract: Calculating in situ rock stresses is increasingly imperative due to the complexities and limitations associated with testing techniques, equipment, assumptions, and the subjective interpretation of test results. Estimating ...

Abstract: With increasing stockpiles of nuclear warheads, it has become essential to fortify critical infrastructure against nuclear blast. Therefore, a reliable estimation of nuclear-blast load is crucial for design of such hardened ...

Abstract: The capital city of India, Delhi, lies in the Indo-Gangetic alluvial trough. The soils of the Delhi region are known as “Delhi silt” because of the dominance of silt and, by and large, are nonplastic. The strength properties ...

Abstract: This study investigates the drained stress-strain-volume change behavior of Delhi silt under triaxial compression and extension loading conditions using two different existing constitutive models, the hardening soil (HS) ...

Abstract: Soil-like material (SLM) constitutes the largest component of reclaimed material from old municipal solid waste (MSW) dumps, often exceeding 50% of the excavated material. One attractive option for use of this material is ...

Abstract: This research investigated dynamic vibration control in a monopile-supported wind turbine system through strategically placed resonators along its length. Four configurations were analyzed: Case 1 (conventional wind turbine ...

Abstract: Statistical analysis of 146 in situ shear wave velocity (

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a systematic well designed experimental investigation carried out to study the engineering properties of the soft Bangkok clay heated up to
