Abstract: The effect of an anisotropic stress state on the monotonic behavior of calcareous sand has been rarely investigated, although calcareous sands in the field mainly experience anisotropic consolidation rather than isotropic ...

Abstract: Domain-specific architectures of artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been developed to estimate salinity levels for planning at key monitoring stations in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California. In this work, we ...
