Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of a testing program to compare the cyclic triaxial behavior of Monterey No. 0 and No. 0/30 sands are presented. Monterey No. 0 sand, the standard sand used by Silver et al in 1976 to establish the performance specification for cyclic triaxial systems, is no longer available and a replacement is needed. The supplier of the test sand, Lone Star Industries, stopped producing No. 0 sand in 1977, and the 4500-kg (10 000-lb) supply stockpiled by the University of California at Berkeley is exhausted. Since 1977, Lone Star Industries has filled requests for Monterey No. 0 by shipping Monterey No. 0/30 sand. The results of a duplicate testing program conducted at two independent laboratories lead to questions regarding the validity of substituting No. 0/30 sand for No. 0 sand. When tested under identical conditions, the Monterey No. 0/30 sand yielded higher cyclic strengths than did Monterey No. 0 sand.

This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 3006 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (PCSMGE) was held in Mexico in 1959. Every 4 years since then, PCSMGE has brought together the geotechnical engineering community from all over the world to discuss the problems, solutions and future challenges facing this engineering sector. Sixty years after the first conference, the 2019 edition returns to Mexico. This book, Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges, presents the proceedings of the XVI Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XVI PCSMGE), held in Cancun, Mexico, from 17 – 20 November 2019. Of the 393 full papers submitted, 335 were accepted for publication after peer review. They are included here organized into 19 technical sessions, and cover a wide range of themes related to geotechnical engineering in the 21st century. Topics covered include: laboratory and in-situ testing; analytical and physical modeling in geotechnics; numerical modeling in geotechnics; unsaturated soils; soft soils; foundations and retaining structures; excavations and tunnels; offshore geotechnics; transportation in geotechnics; natural hazards; embankments and tailings dams; soils dynamics and earthquake engineering; ground improvement; sustainability and geo-environment; preservation of historic sites; forensics engineering; rock mechanics; education; and energy geotechnics. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of research into innovative and challenging applications in the field, the book will be of interest to all those working in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. In this proceedings, 58% of the contributions are in English, and 42% of the contributions are in Spanish or Portuguese.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 28 (thesis year 1 983) a total of 10,661 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 197 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 28 reports theses submitted in-1983, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study experimental and numerical investigations have been carried out with the emphasis on studying the behaviour and liquefaction state of typical silty sand sampled from the Mekelle area in Ethiopia under monotonic and cyclic undrained loadings. Experiments have been carried out to measure the pore pressure accumulation, deformation characteristics and related effective stress paths. A numerical model was then used to simulate the behaviour and liquefaction state associated with the changes in the stress-strain-pore pressure levels by means of the finite element method (FEM) using the FE code Tochnog (Tochnog Professional Company 2021).

This book was released on 1976 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of this investigation were to (a) participate in a cooperative cyclic triaxial testing program with seven other laboratories and (b) determine the effect of various testing techniques and equipment, i.e., specimen preparation and compaction, B value, density, loading wave form, and compaction equipment on the cyclic triaxial strength of a sand. A total of 28 saturated isotropically consolidated-undrained cyclic triaxial tests were conducted on 2.8-in.-diam by 7-in.-high specimens of Monterey No. O sand. Specimens were compacted to 60 percent relative density (98.5 pcf) using three different compaction techniques (i.e. dry rodding, moist rodding, and moist tamping) with some instances of undercompacting the lower layers. Some specimens were compacted to a relative density of about 66 percent while others were tested when the B value reached approximately 0.91. The effect of loading wave shape was evaluated by subjecting specimens to either a rectangular, near triangular, or sinusoidal loading wave form.
