Abstract: An experimental program was designed to study the effects of cross-anisotropy under three-dimensional conditions on fine Nevada sand using tall prismatic specimens. Eighteen drained tests were performed using a true triaxial ...

Abstract: An experimental program consisting of triaxial compression tests and torsion shear tests was designed and carried out to study the variation of shear strength in cross-anisotropic deposits of fine Nevada sand under two- ...

Abstract: An experimental program was carried out to study the variation of shear strength of cross-anisotropic deposits of fine Nevada sand under three-dimensional (3D) conditions using a recently developed torsion shear apparatus. ...

Abstract: This paper presents a simplistic passive dynamic model that is able to create realistic quadrupedal walking, tأ¶lting, and trotting motions. The model is inspired by the bipedal spring loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model ...

Abstract: Artificial groundwater recharge for drinking water production involves infiltration of surface water through sandy soil and its capture into a groundwater aquifer. The transformation of aqueous organic matter is one of the ...
