Driving Characteristics of Open‐Toe Piles in Dense Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Driving tests are conducted on large‐scale steel model pipe piles with open toes to determine how geometric configurations of the toes affect driving performance. A further objective is to investigate a wave‐equation model ... -
Evaluation and Control of Collapsible Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Some compacted soils wetted under certain conditions of compaction and loading may exhibit additional settlement (collapse). To investigate the effect of the soil type, compaction water content, initial dry unit weight and ... -
Analysis for Soil Reinforcement with Bending Stiffness
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Soil nailing as a method of slope stabilization and repair finds widespread application despite the absence of a clear and unified design approach. The ability of soil nails to increase the shear strength of soil by acting ... -
Discussion of “<i>Failure Criteria Interpretation Based on Mohr‐Coulomb Friction</i>” by D. V. Griffiths (June, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 6)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Nonlinear Soil‐Pile Interaction Model for Dynamic Lateral Motion
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)A rational dynamic soil‐pile interaction model is presented. The model is developed adopting Winkler's hypothesis with a special attention to the conditions in which the strong nonlinearity is induced in the vicinity of ... -
Pile Capacity for Axial Cyclic Loading by D. V. Griffiths
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The effects of cyclic loadings from storm waves on the axial capacity of piles driven in cohesive soils and supporting offshore platforms is described. An advanced analytical procedure is developed to estimate pile ... -
Static Instability and Liquefaction of Loose Fine Sandy Slopes
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Soils that exhibit nonassociated flow may, according to stability postulates by Drucker and by Hill, become unstable when exposed to certain stress paths inside the failure surface. Series of conventional triaxial tests ... -

Ambient Temperature Effect in Concrete Dam Foundation Seepage
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The ambient temperature effect in the foundation seepage of a concrete dam is examined. The variation of permeability in the foundation of the dam due to high or low temperatures and the variation of the effectiveness of ... -
Flow‐Deformation Response of Dual‐Porosity Media
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)A constitutive model is presented to define the linear poroelastic response of fissured media to determine the influence of dual porosity effects. A stress‐strain relationship and two equations representing conservation ... -
Performance of Test Embankment Constructed to Failure on Soft Marine Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)This paper describes the observed and the predicted performance of a full‐scale trial embankment built to failure on a soft Malaysian marine clay. Predictions of the subsoil deformation, the critical height of fill and the ... -
Free Boundary, Fluid Flow, and Seepage Forces in Excavations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The role of pore fluids in predicting the strength and deformation behavior of excavations is investigated in the context of nonlinear finite element analysis. It is shown that the imposition of a volume constraint exerts ...
