Laboratory Simulation of Bentonite Erosion by Downslope Flow on a GCL
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Under some circumstances, leaving a composite geomembrane/geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) exposed to solar radiation in the field has been shown to cause shrinkage of the underlying GCL. Recent field studies have shown that ...
Laboratory Study of Downslope Erosion for 10 Different GCLs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The potential for downslope bentonite erosion from a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) subjected to an imposed daily surface flow of deionized water is examined for 10 GCLs with different carrier and cover geotextiles, bentonite ...
Curvature Monitoring of Beams Using Digital Image Correlation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method for measuring longitudinal strains with the height at a section, and thus the curvature, using a technique based on digital image correlation (DIC), is presented. The background to this technique is introduced as ...
