Abstract: A solution for a thin elastic cylindrical lining embedded in an infinite, cylindrically orthotropic medium and subjected to a uniaxial stress field has been obtained. The solution, by separation of variables, is found by ...

Abstract: Corrugated‐metal box culverts are employed as replacements for short‐span bridges. As a result of increasing use, there is a great demand for establishing a rational design procedure for these culverts. The available design ...

Abstract: A comprehensive investigation of the performance of a deep‐corrugated steel box‐type culvert is described. The design of this culvert is unique in that a 140‐mm‐deep corrugated cross section is employed without the use of ...

Abstract: Most of the current design guidelines for metal box‐type culverts have been developed based on finite‐element analysis, in which the soil is modeled with plane strain and the culvert is represented with beam‐column elements. ...
