Abstract: This study focuses on the stability of unsupported vertical cuts in unsaturated soil. For this, a series of numerical analyses were carried out to estimate the stability of unsupported vertical cuts excavated in an unsaturated ...

Abstract: The bearing capacity of unsaturated soils is commonly estimated using the conventional shear-strength parameters determined from drained loading conditions regardless of soil type and drainage condition. However, the use ...

Abstract: In the context of ground improvement applications, this study analyzes the radial penetration length during the permeation grouting of thermal gelation biopolymers (TG-BP) into granular soil. Two types of TG-BP were employed, ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of an inclined base plate on the end bearing capacity of embedded piles and soil behavior below a pile base according to the vertical stress and inclination angle ...

Abstract: The erroneous load transfer curve calculated using the nominal cross-sectional area (AC) and elastic modulus of a concrete specimen (ECU) was modified by considering the nonuniform cross-sectional area (ACR) and nonhomogeneous ...
