Erratum “<i>Centrifuge Model Tests on Bearing Capacity of Clay</i>” by Akio Nakase, Osamu Kusakabe, and Sing‐Fang Wong (December, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Risk Analysis for Seismic Design of Tailings Dams
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Probabilistic seismic risk analysis is a promising method for evaluating design options and establishing seismic design parameters. However, there have been few examples in the literature to guide practitioners in its use. ... -
Chemical Grouting in Soils Permeated by Water
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Based on data obtained from seventy‐nine large‐scale one‐dimensional laboratory tests, limiting conditions were established to define the transition zone between retention and elutriation of chemical grout injected into a ... -
Nonlinear Dynamic Analyses of an Earth Dam
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The following investigations are presented: (1) Comparison between the results of 2D nonlinear and 3D nonlinear dynamic finite element analyses of an earth dam subject to two very different input ground motions; and (2) ... -
Torsional Response of Piles in Nonhomogeneous Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A discrete element method is described for the analysis of single piles subjected to torsion. The soil is modelled using the modulus of subgrade reaction, which is expressed in terms of the soil shear modulus and the pile ... -
Compressibility of Partly Saturated Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)From the considerations of the truncated diffuse double layer due to partial saturation, an equilibrium equation is written in terms of the soil state parameter viz. void ratio, e, void ratio at liquid limit, e=wG, degree ... -
Discussion of “<i>Vane Shear Data on Undrained Residual Strength</i>” by Marvin R. Pyles (April, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Cyclic Testing and Modeling of Interfaces
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A new device for cyclic testing of large size interfaces between structural and geologic materials and rock joints is described. Test results are reported for a sand‐concrete interface, and are used to express shear stress ... -
Erratum “<i>Route Geotechnical Characterization and Analysis</i>” by Charles L. Vita (December, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Vertical Response of Arbitrarily Shaped Embedded Foundations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A simple method to compute the dynamic stiffnesses and damping coefficients of arbitrarily shaped rigid foundations embedded in a reasonably homogeneous and deep soil deposit and subjected to harmonic vertical excitation ... -
Liquefaction Evaluation Procedure
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A procedure for evaluating liquefaction susceptibility of a soil mass subjected to shear stress, such as in slopes, embankments, and foundations of structures, is presented. Liquefaction analysis is a stability analysis ... -
Closure to “<i>Vane Shear Data on Undrained Residual Strength</i>” by Marvin R. Pyles (April, 1984)

Erratum “<i>Chimney Drains to Control Seismic Pore Pressures</i>” by Arnoldo J. L. Bolognesi (September, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Lateral Stresses Observed in Two Simple Shear Apparatus
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Two simple shear apparatus (SSA), the Cambridge University SSA Mk7 and an NGI type, were used to compare the radial stresses developed in the NGI‐type SSA with the horizontal normal stresses on the plane perpendicular to ... -
Discussion of “<i>State of the Art: Soft‐Ground Tunneling</i>” by Ralph B. Peck (May 1984)

Bearing Capacity of Gravity Bases on Layered Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A new numerical method for evaluating the bearing capacity of shallow foundations on layered soil which may contain any combination of cohesive and cohesionless layers is presented. Several potential failure surfaces are ... -
Seismic Stability of Gentle Infinite Slopes
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Deterministic and probabilistic analyses of the stability of gentle infinite slopes subject to seismically induced excess pore pressures and inertia forces are developed. In the deterministic analysis, classical equations ... -
Strength of Intact Geomechanical Materials
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The strength of geomechanical materials can be described by a number of strength criteria. However, each criterion is usually limited to certain material types with a limited range of stress conditions. A new empirical ...
