Abstract: The technology of composite ground has been widely adopted in various engineering projects, and it presents the trend from a single column type to the combined use of multiple types. The combined use of long prefabricated ...

Abstract: For clays with low permeability, some experimental results show that there may exist a threshold hydraulic gradient, below which the water in clays cannot flow. This threshold hydraulic gradient induces a moving boundary ...

Abstract: The use of prefabricated horizontal drains (PHDs) combined with vacuum preloading (VP) has emerged as a popular dredged slurry treatment strategy. However, few theoretical contributions are available to assess its consolidation ...

Abstract: In general, prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) used in practice are usually manufactured in band shapes. To analyze its consolidation in cylindrical coordinate system, the band-shaped drain was usually converted into an ...

Abstract: In composite foundations, impervious piles function as vertical reinforcement, significantly enhancing the bearing capacity of the foundation. However, compared to granular material piles, the drainage path in composite ...
