RISNear-Field and Far-Field Ground-Borne Vibration Mitigation Using Bamboo-Filled Wave Barriers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ground-borne vibrations generated by various man-made activities pose a perennial threat to nearby buildings, impacting their serviceability and causing annoyance to residents. This study addresses the pressing demand for ...
Large-Scale Experimental and Numerical Studies on the Dynamic Interaction of Closely Spaced Machine Foundations on Geogrid-Reinforced Soil Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The current study encompasses experimental and numerical investigations on the response of closely placed machine foundations resting on unreinforced and geogrid-reinforced soil beds. Large-scale field block vibration tests ...
Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Two Interfering Rough Strip Footings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ultimate bearing capacity of two interfering strip footings was determined by using the method of stress characteristics. The analysis was performed by choosing two different possible failure mechanisms. The variation ...
Vertical Uplift Capacity of Two Nearby Horizontal Strip Anchors Using the Method of Stress Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present study addresses the effect of interference on the uplift capacity of two closely spaced horizontal strip anchors embedded in cohesionless soil. The analysis has been performed using the method of stress ...

Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present study addresses the effect of interference on the uplift capacity of two closely spaced horizontal strip anchors embedded in cohesionless soil. The analysis has been performed using the method of stress ...
Seismic Stability of a Broken-Back Retaining Wall Using Adaptive Collapse Mechanism
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the pertinence of a broken-back retaining wall with bilinear backface in mitigating the effect of earthquake is demonstrated using the method of stress characteristics coupled with the pseudodynamic approach. ...
Determination of Viscoelastic Properties of Soil and Prediction of Static and Dynamic Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper employs a general and direct method to determine the time-dependent stress–strain behavior of soil using a Prony series parameter fitting. The rheological stress–strain data obtained from the relaxation test of ...
Legal Frameworks for Promoting Reuse of Construction and Demolition Wastes and Sustainable Development
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractIndia’s growing construction industry has significantly increased the demand for building
materials, resulting in a corresponding rise in construction and demolition (C&D)
waste generation. Despite this, the ...
Dynamic Responses of Embankment Resting on Liquefiable Foundation Soil under Pulse- and Nonpulse-Type Ground Motions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract This study examines the fragility response of an earthen embankment supported on a
liquefiable deposit subjected to pulse and nonpulse ground motions. Fragility curves
are developed based on two key parameters, ...
Determination of Critical Slope Face in <i>c</i>–<i>ϕ</i> Soil under Seismic Condition Using Method of Stress Characteristics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study proposes a plasticity-based approach to ensure the static and seismic stability of a finite soil slope supporting a uniformly distributed surcharge on the horizontal top surface. Most of the available investigations ...
