Abstract: The competition between the structural rigidity and the van der Waals interactions may lead to collapsing of aligned nanotubes, and the resulting changes of both configurations and properties promise the applications of ...

Abstract: Abstract Geotechnical analysis may often involve the soil mass of cross-anisotropy, and a consideration of the cross-anisotropy of soil mass is crucial to the safety and economy of geotechnical applications. In this work, ...

Abstract: Abstract Deep mixing (DM) columns are extensively employed to reinforce soft soil foundations. However, the strength of these columns exhibits significant spatial variability due to inhomogeneities in the mixing process ...
