Effective Stress Analysis of Seismic Response and Liquefaction: Case Studies
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)The effective stress method of analysis described in a comparison paper is used to study the effect of various factors on the response and the liquefaction potential of saturated sands. Through a number of analyses, a ... -
Closure to “<i>A Simple Question about Consolidation</i>” by John M. Schmertmann (January, 1983)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984) -
One and Two Support Models for Blast Response
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)Blast response was modeled with a two support, two degree of freedom (TDF) system to investigate the importance of traveling wave excitation. Measured structural response was found to correlate better with either single ... -
Soil Mechanics Principles in Underground Mining
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)Soil mechanics principles can be successfully applied to many of the problems encountered in underground mining. A few typical problems are described, and the application of soil mechanics to their solution is indicated. ... -
Shear Failure in Granular Media
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)A new concept, effective confining contact stress (product of porosity and effective confining stress), used to analyze the mechanism of shear failure in granular materials with special reference to the reduction in effective ... -
Closure to “<i>SPT Hammer Energy Measurement</i>” by William D. Kovacs and Lawrence A. Salomone (April, 1982)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984) -
Effective Stress Analysis of Seismic Response and Liquefaction: Theory
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)An effective stress method is presented for analysis of seismic response and liquefaction of horizontally layered saturated sand deposits, based on solution of the fully coupled equations for the granular solid and the ... -
Influence Zones in Alluvium Over Dip‐Slip Faults
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)Tests were performed on dense and loose sand in a glass‐walled fault test box to investigate the shapes and locations of failure surfaces that may occur in alluvium overlying active dip‐slip faults. The experimental procedure ... -
Discussion of “<i>Wave‐Induced Pore Pressures in Submerged Sand Layer</i>” by Yuet Tsui and Steven C. Helfrich (April, 1983)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984) -
Multiple Failure Surfaces Over Dip‐Slip Faults
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)The shapes and locations of failure surfaces in alluvium overlying active dip‐slip faults are studied on the basis of experiments performed in a fault test box. A simple model for predicting primary and secondary failure ... -

Phase Relations in Marine Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)Pore water in marine sediments contains dissolved salts. For marine clays and biogenous oozes which have high void ratios, the dissolved salts should be taken into account in determining soil void ratio, water content, dry ... -

Vane Shear Data on Undrained Residual Strength
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)The ratio of ultimate undrained residual strength to consolidation pressure for San Francisco Bay mud is a constant in the manner that the ratio of peak undrained strength to consolidation pressure is a constant. Laboratory ... -
Time Dependence of Lateral Earth Pressure
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)Both theoretical analysis and laboratory test data indicate that for normally consolidated soft clays the coefficient of lateral earth pressure at rest, K -
Photoelastic Analysis of Laterally Loaded Rigid Piles
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)The stresses created within an elastic model material (gelatin) by a laterally loaded, rigid, finite pile are studied using three-dimensional photoelasticity. Cases of both slip and no-slip conditions at the pile/gelatin ... -
Graphical Solution for Sheet Pile Embedment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984)An arbitrary depth is assumed for the sheet pile. The lateral forces on both sides of the pile are equalized graphically which satisfies one equation of equilibrium. The moment equation is not satisfied which produces ...
