Abstract: This paper pertains to the development of a simplified model for an infinite beam subjected to a concentrated load moving with constant velocity and resting on geosynthetic-reinforced granular bed over soft soil improved ...

Abstract: Reverse osmosis (RO) has been an extensively implemented membrane technology for both domestic and industrial use. This wide implementation has been possible due to the availability of potable drinking water with high ...

Abstract: Nonlinearity of the soil medium plays a very important role on the seismic behavior of soil-pile-structure interaction. The problem of soil-pile-structure interaction is further complicated when the piles are embedded in ...

Abstract: Separation and sliding between soil and pile have a significant effect on the complex behavior of pile groups under dynamic condition. In addition to separation between soil and pile, the behavior of soil medium surrounding ...

Abstract: Simulation models are becoming valuable tools for design and management of furrow irrigation systems. The Manning equation is used often for describing overland flow in these models. The past studies suggest that the Manning ...

Abstract: The time-rated infiltration families proposed by Merriam and Clemmens were further developed and evaluated using infiltration data for noncracking soils. Infiltration experiments were monitored, using a double-ring ...
