Geomechanical Characterization of the Volcaniclastic Material Involved in the 2002 Landslides at Stromboli
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During the 2002 eruption, the NW flank of Stromboli volcano (Southern Italy) experienced large landslides that produced tsunami waves with a maximum runup of 10 m in height. This paper focuses on the geomechanical behavior ...
Consolidation of a Geosynthetic Clay Liner under Isotropic States of Stress
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The consolidation behavior of a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) was evaluated by consolidating duplicate specimens of the GCL in a flexible-wall cell to a final effective stress,
Effects of Near-Fault Ground Shaking on Sliding Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical study is presented for a rigid block supported through a frictional contact surface on a horizontal or an inclined plane, and subjected to horizontal or slope-parallel excitation. The latter is described with ...
Mechanics of Drag Embedment Anchors in a Soft Seabed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the load capacity and trajectory of a drag embedment anchor in a soft seabed. Anchor capacity relationships are developed for an idealized anchor comprising a rectangular fluke and a ...
Interplay between Field Measurements and Soil Behavior for Capturing Supported Excavation Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Instruments are installed during the construction of urban excavations to monitor ground response at discrete locations to various construction activities, to verify design assumptions and to effectively apply the observational ...
Effect of Secondary Impacts on SPT Rod Energy and Sampler Penetration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper explores the standard penetration test (SPT) hammer-anvil behavior and investigates the effect of secondary impact on SPT energy and sampler penetration. It is observed that the hammer-anvil behavior after the ...
Discussion of “Stability of I-Walls in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina” by J. Michael Duncan, Thomas L. Brandon, Stephen G. Wright, and Noah Vroman

Assessment of the Axial Load Response of an H Pile Driven in Multilayered Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most of the current design methods for driven piles were developed for closed-ended pipe piles driven in either pure clay or clean sand. These methods are sometimes used for H piles as well, even though the axial load ...
