Abstract: Steel screw anchors (SSAs) have been widely used in geotechnical engineering practice because they are simple in structure and easy to design and construct. The main disadvantage of SSAs is that they rust quickly and are ...

Abstract: This case history presents an application of dynamic compaction in placement of a road embankment with a height of 41 m on the Yuncheng-Sanmenxia Expressway, Shanxi Province, China. The monitoring results during the ...

Abstract: This paper presents details of a large field trial and some observations conducted to evaluate the practical efficiencies of geosynthetically reinforced asphalt pavements in Shanxi Province, China. Three glass-fiber grids ...

Abstract: Hysteretic soil water retention behavior is the key information required for interpreting and predicting the hydromechanical responses of unsaturated soils during drying and wetting processes. For this reason, models capable ...

Abstract: The low-moon gravity has a significant influence on the mechanical properties of lunar soils at low-stress levels. To better understand the shear strength and deformation behavior of lunar soils at low confining stress and ...
