Abstract: A field load test is an essential way to understand the behavior and fundamental characteristics of newly constructed bridges before they are allowed to go into service. The results of field static load tests and numerical ...

Abstract: Accurate prediction of excess pore water pressure (EPWP) generation in saturated sandy soils remains one of the most challenging issues in sandy site responses to strong earthquakes and extreme marine environments. This ...

Abstract: The flowfield around a 6:1 prolate spheroid at angle of attack is predicted using solutions of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and detached-eddy simulation (DES). The calculations ...

Abstract: The influences of consolidation conditions and rotation patterns of principal stress on the liquefaction susceptibility of saturated coral sand have emerged as an interesting problem in recent years. This paper presents ...
