Discussion of “Stresses Developed around Displacement Piles Penetration in Sand” by Z. X. Yang, R. J. Jardine, B. T. Zhu, and S. Rimoy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Comparison of Weighting-Rating-Calculating, Best Value, and Choosing by Advantages for Bidder Selection
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Simulation of Grain Fracture–Induced Pile Creep and Setup in Sands
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractPile setup is now generally recognized as a characteristic feature of displacement
pile axial response in sand. However, a clear understanding of the phenomena underlying
pile setup is still missing because reliable ...
Alternative Approach to Prioritization of Brownfield Reclamation Attending to Urban Development Potentialities: Case Study in a Depressed Industrial District in Northern Spain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Site selection is a fundamental part of the decision-making process when attempting to reclaim derelict land and brownfield sites in any specific area. A geographic information system (GIS)-based multicriteria decision ...

Modeling the Behavior of Expansive Soils Using Effective Stresses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the past 15 years, different researches have shown that the effective-stress approach represents a simple and precise way to generate fully coupled constitutive models for unsaturated soils. This is so because the ...
Method to Improve Seismic Performance of RC Moment-Resisting Frames Using Geometric Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article presents an optimization method to determine the column dimensions that maximize the fundamental frequency of a building, which translates into a highly efficient computational algorithm for approximately ...
Microstructure and Compactive Instabilities of a Stabilized Residue
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cement stabilization of metallurgical residues is a frequently implemented option to reduce the associated environmental risks and thus simplify residue disposal procedures. As chemical stabilization is the first and main ...

Glancing-Blow Impact Forces by a Barge Train on a Lock Approach Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In 1993 Headquarters, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, issued the first formal Corps-wide analysis procedure providing guidance for analyzing the effects of barge impact loading on navigation structures. The guidance was ...
