Analysis of CMC-Supported Embankments Considering Soil Arching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© ASCE. In this paper, the behaviour of geosynthetic-reinforced controlled modulus column-supported embankments is studied for different distributions of loadings induced by arching on the load transfer platform (LTP).

Size segregation, convection, and arching effect

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2005
We present a numerical study based on the contact dynamic procedure for the size segregation in a two-dimensional vibrating container. In agreement with previous studies, we find that the rising of the larger particle is accompanied by convection rolls.

Interaction Mechanisms of Synchronously Performed Adjacent Excavations

open access: yesShanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao, 2022
An adjacent excavation model based on the hardening soil-small strain (HSS) constitutive model was established by using the numerical method, which was compared with the single excavation model and the adjacent excavation model without considering the ...

Using kinematic reduction for studying grasping postures. An application to power and precision grasp of cylinders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The kinematic analysis of human grasping is challenging because of the high number of degrees of freedom involved. The use of principal component and factorial analyses is proposed in the present study to reduce the hand kinematics dimensionality in the ...

Optimized Design of Piled Embankment Using a Multi-Effect Coupling Model on a Coastal Highway

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
This study presents a multi-effect coupling model to optimize the design of a geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankment (GRPSE) considering the coupling effects of soil arching, membranes, and pile–soil interaction on a coastal highway.

Interaction mechanism of the anti-slide pile and sliding mass based on the soil arching effect

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2021
Anti-slide pile has been one of the most used preventive measures for the landslide treatment in the recent years. The pile spacing has a significant impact on the arching effect which develops due to the relative compressibility of soil relative to the ...

Anthropomorphism Index of Mobility for Artificial Hands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The increasing development of anthropomorphic artificial hands makes necessary quick metrics that analyze their anthropomorphism. In this study, a human grasp experiment on the most important grasp types was undertaken in order to obtain an ...

Analysis of The arching phenomenon of bored piles in sand

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2016
Several bored pile field-testing observations showed the arching phenomena and its effect on side shear resistance. Finite element numerical model is developed in this paper to study the arching phenomena of bored pile and the effect on the overall ...

Density distribution of particles upon jamming after an avalanche in a 2D silo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a complete analysis of the density distribution of particles in a two dimensional silo after discharge. Simulations through a pseudo-dynamic algorithm are performed for filling and subsequent discharge of a plane silo.

Analysis of Load Transfer and the Law of Deformation within a Pile-Supported Reinforced Embankment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
In this paper, the load-transfer mechanism and settlement behaviors of the pile-supported reinforced embankment are reviewed by laboratory model tests, and a series of finite element method (FEM) modellings are conducted to analyze the soil-arching ...
