Deformation Pattern of Beams Rested on Different Foundation Models in Nonuniform Foundation Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The theoretical calculation considering foundation and beam interaction is widely employed to simulate thee deformation pattern of a beam rested on different foundation models. Based on the Kerr three-parameter foundation ...
A Mechanical Model and Solution for Dynamic Response of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Pile-Supported Embankment under Traveling Loads
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To evaluate the mechanical behavior and the load transfer mechanisms of a geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported (GRPS) embankment under traffic load, an analytical model is developed based on elastodynamic theory, and its ...
Experimental Study and Numerical Simulation on Concrete Box Culverts in Trenches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concrete culverts in trenches have been widely used in expressways. Problems frequently take place because of improperly estimated vertical earth pressures on culverts. Different codes have been used in China to estimate ...
Improved Analytical Soil Arching Model for the Design of Piled Embankments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Because analytical soil arching models are fundamental for the design of piled embankments, numerous soil arching models were proposed for this purpose. However, the results obtained from various soil arching models differ ...
Piecewise-Linear Model for Large-Strain Consolidation with Threshold Hydraulic Gradient
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Experimental studies found that water flow in clay might not obey Darcy’s law. In some fine-grained soils, the water flow could occur only when the threshold gradient was exceeded. This study investigates the effects of ...
Numerical Modeling of Pile-Supported Low Embankments under Cyclic Traffic Loading Considering the Effect of Pavement Crack
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Extensive research has been carried out to understand the behavior of pile-supported embankments; however, pavement crack, which could appear early on the pavement of low embankments during the service life, has not yet ...
Strength Behavior of Slurry-Like Mud Treated with Physicochemical Combination Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The physicochemical combination method (PCCM), improving upon the conventional pure cement solidification method (PCSM), has been developed as an integrated and sustainable approach to treat and recycle slurry-like mud ...
Comparative Analysis of Longitudinal Seismic Responses of Rigid, Flexible, and Semirigid Immersed Tunnels Using the Analytical Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To adapt to complex underwater geological conditions, immersed tunnel projects have gone through the development from rigid and flexible to semirigid immersed tunnels. The stiffness of segment joints and the element joint ...
An Analytical Solution for 2D Plane Strain Consolidation in Unsaturated Soils with Lateral and Vertical Semipermeable Drainage Boundaries under Time-Dependent Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper has proposed a closed-form solution for two-dimensional (2D) plane strain consolidation in unsaturated soils with lateral and vertical semipermeable drainage boundaries under time-dependent loading. By using the ...
Experimental and Numerical Analysis of a Field Trial Application of Microbially Induced Calcite Precipitation for Ground Stabilization
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A field trial evaluated the potential of microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) through urea hydrolysis for ground stabilization. A bioaugmentation approach was employed in which locally enriched bacteria were ...
