Abstract: The present work aims to understand the stress–strain response of an igneous rock, granite, under high loading rate through detailed experimental and numerical analyses. The high-strain-rate characterization of granite ...

Abstract: Real-time measurement of velocities in porous media is desirable for engineers engaged in ground-water remediation, monitoring projects, drainage studies, etc. This paper investigates the theory supporting the heat sense ...

Abstract: Agricultural land pollution is a big threat globally, which is associated with petroleum industry activities. Hence, the exploration of remedial methods for the treatment of polluted agricultural soils is necessary. In ...

Abstract: An analytical solution of the fully coupled system of equations governing the axisymmetric quasistatic deformation of a poroelastic medium with anisotropic permeability and compressible fluid and solid constituents is ...

Abstract: Liquefaction-induced ground displacements resulting from earthquake shaking are a major cause of damage to earth structures comprised of, or underlain by, loose saturated granular soils. The present paper describes the ...

Abstract: Installation of a stone column in loose soil is one of the robotics ground enhancement techniques that reduce the risk liquefaction and related ground deformation. However, the experimental investigation is costly and it ...

Abstract: This paper presents a linear programming model for optimal water allocations in a large river basin system. The model is applied to the transboundary Subernarekha River in India, which has two main stream reservoirs, two ...

Abstract: This research work depicts the dispersive limitation of shear (SH) waves in an initially stressed strain-gradient layer over halfspace (LoH) model with an inflexible upper boundary plane. The gradient elasticity theory ...

Abstract: Chitosan-based silver nanocomposite beads were synthesized through the facile chemical precipitation method, and its efficiency was evaluated for removal of hexavalent chromium from synthetic and tannery industrial effluents ...
