Effect of negative excess pore-water pressure on the stability of excavated slopes [PDF]

open access: yesGéotechnique Letters, 2020
Generation of negative excess pore-water pressure (NEPWP) due to the excavation of saturated soils under undrained conditions and the dissipation that follows over time may result in different short- and long-term slope instability. The NEPWP generated due to excavation gradually decreases towards equilibrium or, in some cases, steady seepage.

Evaluation of a permeability-porosity relationship in a low permeability creeping material using a single transient test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A method is presented for the evaluation of the permeability-porosity relationship in a low-permeability porous material using the results of a single transient test. This method accounts for both elastic and non-elastic deformations of the sample during

Accumulation of Pore Pressure in a Soft Clay Seabed around a Suction Anchor Subjected to Cyclic Loads

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
A suction anchor is an appealing anchoring solution for floating production. However, the possible effects of residual pore pressure can be rarely found any report so far in term of the research and design.

Twin-tunnelling-induced changes to clay stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
With urban tunnel construction growing worldwide, the ability to accurately predict the ground and structural response to tunnelling and the associated risks is now more important than ever before. Engineers are expected to consider all aspects of tunnel

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Dissipated energy in undrained cyclic triaxial tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Energy-based methods are an emerging tool for the evaluation of liquefaction potential. These methods relate excess pore water pressure build-up to seismic energy dissipated per unit volume.
