RISJoint Strength and Wall Deformation Characteristics of a Single-Cell Geocell Subjected to Uniaxial Compression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geocells are three-dimensional expandable panels with a wide range of applications in geotechnical engineering. A geocell is made up of many internally connected single cells. The current study discusses the joint strength ...
Detection of Local Site Conditions in Tripura and Mizoram Using the Topographic Gradient Extracted from Remote Sensing Data and GIS Techniques
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Use of Bamboo in Soft-Ground Engineering and Its Performance Comparison with Geosynthetics: Experimental Studies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The results of the laboratory investigation performed on clay beds reinforced with natural (bamboo) and commercial (geosynthetics) reinforcement materials are reported in this paper. To use bamboo effectively, three-dimensional ...
Characterization of Strength and Deformation of Jointed Rock Mass Based on Statistical Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper deals with the statistical analysis of the uniaxial compressive strength and of the elastic modulus of jointed rock masses under different confining pressures. Properties of the rock masses with different joint ...
Site Characterization Model Using Artificial Neural Network and Kriging
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, the problem of site characterization is treated as a task of function approximation of the large existing data from standard penetration tests (SPTs) in three-dimensional subsurface of Bangalore, India. More ...
Transformations of Obliquely Striking Waves at a Rock Joint: Numerical Simulations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Knowledge of wave propagation across rock joints is necessary for understanding distinctions between wave attenuation and lithology. Whenever a propagating seismic wave strikes a rock joint at an angle not normal to the ...
Nonlinear Finite-Element Modeling of Batter Piles under Lateral Load
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, a finite-element model is developed in which the nonlinear soil behavior is represented by a hyperbolic relation for static load condition and modified hyperbolic relation, which includes both degradation ...
Experimental Investigation on Behavior of a Laterally Loaded Single Pile Located on Sloping Ground
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laboratory model tests were conducted on an aluminum model pile embedded on a crest of soft clay. The slope angle and L/D ratio (L = embedded length, D = diameter of pile) were varied, and the pile was subjected to lateral ...
Stabilization of Zinc Tailings via Alkali Activation for Tailings Pond Embankment Applications: A Sustainable Solution for Mine Tailings Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractRapid industrialization and economic development have led to increased demand for
minerals and metals, resulting in the generation of substantial quantities of mine
tailings (MT). These mining wastes are commonly ...
OCR Prediction Using Support Vector Machine Based on Piezocone Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The determination of the overconsolidation ratio (OCR) of clay deposits is an important task in geotechnical engineering practice. This paper examines the potential of a support vector machine (SVM) for predicting the OCR ...
