The Potential Use of Nanoclayto Increa Strength of Contaminated Soil

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
Totally contaminated soils is known as problematic soils. Also cohesive soil with low strength is not suitable for geotechnical structures. One of the soil improvement techniques is adding an additive to soil. Given the widespread use of nanoparticles in

Worm‐Inspired Soft Robots With Modular Outfit‐Changing for Intelligent Multienvironment Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a worm‐inspired soft robot capable of locomotion across multiple environments through a modular “outfit‐changing” strategy. The robot integrates pneumatically actuated peristaltic segments with interchangeable external modules, enabling efficient motion on ground surfaces, within pipelines, through granular media, and underwater ...

Hydrofracturing pressure of cohesive soils

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1987
ABSTRACT Investigated is the relation between the hydrofracturing pressure Pf and the strength of cohesive soils. Fracture tests on six kinds of cohesive soils (i. e. ϕ = 0 materials), including artificial soils, were performed. The direction of fracture surface was chosen not only vertical (i. e.

Performance evaluation of the Generalized Bounding Surface Model in the simulation of Cajicá clay subjected to monotonic loading [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Different constitutive models, based on principles of mechanics and experimental evidence, have been developed over several decades to represent and predict the stress-strain behavior of soils subjected to various loading conditions.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Finite Element Analysis for Bearing Capacity of Rectangular Footing Resting Near Sloped Cohesive soil

open access: yesTikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2013
Finite element method is used to investigate the ultimate bearing capacity of rectangular footing resting on cohesive soil near slope. The effect of footing aspect ratio (L/B), distance ratio (b/B), and slope angle (β) on the bearing capacity are ...

The Evaluation of the Initial Shear Modulus of Selected Cohesive Soils

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015
The paper concerns the evaluation of the initial stiffness of selected cohesive soils based on laboratory tests. The research materials used in this study were clayey soils taken from the area of the road embankment No.

Integrated Evaluation of Contaminant Profiles, Detection Techniques, and Management Strategies for Tannery Sludge

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review article critically examines the environmental and health hazards of tannery sludge (TS), a complex by‐product of the leather tanning industry. TS is characterized by a diverse array of contaminants, including heavy metals like chromium, organic pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), volatile organic compounds ...
