Abstract: Jack-up leg installation, extraction, and reinstallation near extraction-induced footprints are simulated using the coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian method with a strain-softening soil model. A typical footprint considering ...

Abstract: In strong over soft two-layered clays, there is a potential for the footing to experience a punch-through failure, where the footing penetrates a large distance at a short time after the initial peak resistance is reached. ...

Abstract: Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) is a widely used material in civil engineering. This paper aims to evaluate the macro- and microcharacteristics of lightweight aggregate concrete which has served as the deck in the ...

Abstract: Layered soil conditions are common in marine sediments, and deduction of strength properties for thin interbedded layers is often challenging. Full-flow penetrometers such as T-bar are increasingly being used in offshore ...
