Geostatic Wall Pressures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is shown that the single closed-form expression, ☌
Earthquake‐Induced Shear Stresses in Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Closed-form expressions for the earthquake-induced shear stress magnitude in soils and its phase shift with respect to the ground acceleration are presented. They are expressed as functions of the depth, the damping ratio ...
Interference Between Geotechnical Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The relative safety of neighboring geotechnical structures depends on the degree of dependence between them. This dependence is considered to exist if there is overlapping of their potential failure surfaces. A simple ...
Predicting Ground‐Water Response to Precipitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High ground‐water levels are a principal cause of slope instability and of significance in other geotechnical engineering problems. A methodology has been developed, and is described in this paper, for predicting the ...
