Review of Geohazard Warning Systems toward Development of a Popular Usage Geohazard Warning Communication System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The advent and evolution of geohazard warning systems is a very interesting study. The two broad fields that are immediately visible are that of geohazard evaluation and subsequent warning dissemination. Evidently, the ...
Numerical Implementation of Anisotropic Continuum Model for Rock Masses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this technical note, rock mass has been regarded as an equivalent anisotropic continuum. Constitutive relationships for the rock masses have been derived. The approach aims to capture the overall behavior of the rock ...
Three-Dimensional Joint/Interface Element for Rough Undulating Major Discontinuities in Rock Masses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Major civil engineering structures are being constructed now a days in complex geological environment with faults, shear zones, and other major discontinuities. These major discontinuities can cause a variety of problems ...
Automated Geo-Spatial Hazard Warning System GEOWARNS: Italian Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hazard warning is an area of research that requires both hazard evaluation and warning dissemination. At present, no such system carrying out both hazard evaluation and warning communication directly to the user community ...
Design of a Rigid Cutoff Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A sheet pile cutoff wall simply called cutoff wall is used in almost all types of water retaining structures to reduce the exit gradient at the downstream toe and prevent the chances of sand boiling and piping. In 1954, ...
