Investigation into the effect of uncertainty of CPT-based soil type estimation on the accuracy of CPT-based pile bearing capacity analysis [PDF]
, 2016 Cone Penetration Test (CPT or CPTu) is commonly used for estimating soil types and also for the geotechnical design of pile foundation. However, the level of agreement between the CPT-based soil types and the traditional identification of soil types ...

Thermal properties of Malaysian cohesive soils [PDF]
, 2016 The thermal properties of soils surrounding energy piles are required for the efficient and optimal design of shallow geothermal energy pile systems. In this study, the thermal conductivity, thermal resistivity and volumetric specific heat of two types ...

Studies on soil cohesion (Part 1) theory of cohesion in ideal soil [PDF]
Soil and Plant Food, 1956 Abstract 1. Historical. Theory of an ideal soil due to capillary films was first studied by W. B. Haines (1925),1) and this was corrected and developed by R. A. Fisher (1926). 2)

Using small-angle X-ray scattering to investigate the compaction behaviour of a granulated clay [PDF]
, 2015 The compaction behaviour of a commercial granulated clay (magnesium aluminium smectite, gMgSm) was investigated using macroscopic pressure-density measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray microtomography (XμT) and ...

The Effect of Soil Type and Moisture Content on Head Impacts on Natural Grass Athletic Fields
Proceedings, 2018 Studies are warranted to evaluate head injury criterion (HIC) on athletic fields to determine baseline numbers and compare those findings to current critical thresholds for impact attenuation.

Modelling the brightness increase signature due to asteroid collisions
, 2015 We have developed a model to predict the post-collision brightness increase of sub-catastrophic collisions between asteroids and to evaluate the likelihood of a survey detecting these events.

Evolution and monitoring of karst ground collapse in the Zhifang-Miaoshan paleo-clay area of Wuhan
Carsologica Sinica, 2023 This study is aimed at finding out the disaster mechanism of karst ground collapse in the Zhifang-Miaoshan paleo-clay area of Wuhan and selecting appropriate methods for the monitoring and early warning, so as to effectively reduce the harm caused by ...

Construction and testing of self-drilled soil nails [PDF]
, 2016 Current standards and best practice guidance recognise that testing of self-drilled hollow bar soil nails can be problematic as conventional packers and debonded lengths cannot be constructed.
