RISStrain History and Short-Period Aging Effects on the Strength and Cyclic Response of Fine-Grained Coal Refuse
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental investigation on the effects of strain history and aging on cyclic response and resistance of fine-grained coal refuse (FCR) using large-scale shaking table tests. The FCR specimen was ...
Reduced-Scale Shake Table Testing of Seismic Behaviors of Slurry Cutoff Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a reduced-scale shake table test on the seismic responses of a section of soil-cement-bentonite (SCB) slurry cutoff wall. The geometric scale of slurry wall width was chosen as
Shear Resistance of Tire-Derived Aggregate Using Large-Scale Direct Shear Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a large-scale direct shear testing of tire-derived aggregate (TDA) of large sizes (25–75 mm). The objective of this research is to obtain and compare the shear resistances of large-sized TDA and TDA in ...
Reduced-Scale Shake Table Testing of Seismic Behaviors of Slurry Cutoff Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a reduced-scale shake table test on the seismic responses of a section of soil-cement-bentonite (SCB) slurry cutoff wall. The geometric scale of slurry wall width was chosen as 1∶3 (model:prototype). A ...
Effects of Backfill Constitutive Behavior and Soil–Geotextile Interface Properties on Deformations of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Soil Piers under Static Axial Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this research, a numerical investigation was conducted to study the effects of backfill constitutive behavior on the vertical and horizontal deformations of geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) piers under static axial ...
Effects of Lift Thickness, Backfill Material, and Compaction Energy on Utility Trench Backfill Compaction Using Hydraulic Plate Compactors
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Excavator-mounted hydraulic plate compactors have been used extensively for utility trench backfill compaction due to their efficiency. However, there is a need to study their effect on compaction and pipe performance in ...
Analytical Study of Forces on a Glass Sphere under the Effects of Fluid's Viscosity, pH, and Ionic Strength for Flow-Induced Particle Mobilization
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an analytical study on the roles of fluid viscosity, pH, and ionic strength in the variations of the interparticle forces and the force equilibrium of a spherical particle resting on a particle bed. The ...
Statistical Evaluation of Seismic Velocity Models of Permafrost
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The warming climate in high-latitude permafrost regions is leading to permafrost degradation. Estimating seismic wave velocities in permafrost could help predict the geomechanical properties of permafrost and provide ...

Comparison of Seismic Responses of Geosynthetically Reinforced Walls with Tire-Derived Aggregates and Granular Backfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the seismic responses of geosynthetically reinforced walls with two types of backfills using shake table tests. The backfills are tire-derived aggregates (TDA) and poorly graded sand, respectively. ...
