RISDiscrete-Element Quantification of the Noncoaxiality of Anisotropic Granular Materials under Orientational Rotational Shear
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The discrete-element method was employed to investigate the macro- and micromechanical behaviors of anisotropic granular specimens using orientational rotational shear (ORS) tests. The variations in the initial fabric ...
Enhanced Electrokinetic Remediation of Copper-Contaminated Soils near a Mine Tailing Using the Approaching-Anode Technique
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The soils contaminated by copper (Cu) near a mine tailing are remedied via an enhanced electrokinetical (EK) method utilizing approaching anodes (AAs). The variations in the removal efficiency and soil pH as a function of ...
Discrete-Element Simulation of Dense Sand under Uni- and Bidirectional Cyclic Simple Shear Considering Initial Static Shear Effect
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Huge and critical structures, such as fuel storage tanks and nuclear power plants, are often built on dense sandy grounds, which may cause excessive plastic deformations under multidirectional cyclic shearing conditions ...
