Earthquake Response of Reinforced Segmental Retaining Walls Backfilled with Substantial Percentage of Fines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports on the seismic performance of three geosynthetic-reinforced segmental retaining wall systems backfilled with a silty sand mixture, using a shaking table excited by 1995 Kobe earthquake loadings. The ...
Stress Deformation and Fluid Pressure of Bone Specimens under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cyclic loading has been known to induce fluid flow and thus mechanotransduction in bones. In the past, four-point bending tests have been used exclusively in studying fluid flow in bones. In order to better understand the ...
Seismic Response of Geocell Retaining Walls: Experimental Studies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper summarizes the seismic response of five large-scale retaining walls having a geocell facing. The walls were
