Abstract: AbstractThe influence of groundwater levels on shallow tunnel excavation mechanisms was explored by analyzing loosening pressure, shear band development, and surface settlement observed in trapdoor tests conducted in ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study on the shear behavior of granular materials, focusing on the effects of interparticle friction and particle size, which are of fundamental importance but are not yet well understood. ...

Abstract: Slender single piles are extensively used but susceptible to buckling when embedded in soft ground mediums. Owing to the complexity of soil properties, the soil-structure interaction (SSI) response is sometimes very ...
