Urban boundary‐layer flows in complex terrain: Dynamic interactions during a hot and dry summer season in Phoenix, Arizona

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 150, Issue 762, Page 3099-3116, July 2024 Part A.
Improving the understanding of urban boundary‐layer dynamics can be beneficial in addressing societal issues like aviation operation safety and air quality. We use Weather Research and Forecasting model high‐resolution simulations to investigate the interaction between the urban boundary layer of Phoenix metro (United States) and the thermal ...

Enhancing the mechanical properties of washed recycled sand: Synergistic effects of EICP and geogrid reinforcement

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
The enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) technique and geogrid reinforcement have each proven effective in enhancing the mechanical properties of sandy soils.

Numerical analysis of shallow foundations on geogrid reinforced soil

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Geogrids have been increasingly used as soil improvement technique over the past decade. This increasing trend is attributed to its ease of application and low cost compared to other improvement techniques.

Greening the dike revetment with historic sod transplantation technique in a living lab

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract Coastal flood managers seek to anticipate future flood risk and as a result consider the adaptation of flood defences. Instead of crest heightening, dikes can be adapted to include hydrodynamic reducing vegetated foreshores to form a nature‐based hybrid flood defence, for instance; at managed realignments.

Determining the bearing capacity of soil foundation reinforced by geogrid [PDF]

Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2012
The article deals with improving the construction properties of soils due to their reinforcement by geosynthetics, namely the geogrid. Geosynthetics have been widely used in the construction of extended objects: the mound of roads and railways, dams ...

A numerical modelling approach for designing a capping layer on weak subgrades with geogrids

Results in Engineering
Ultra-weak subgrades with California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values below 5% pose significant challenges in working-platform design, as thick granular capping layers are often required and can be uneconomical.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF SHALLOW FOUNDATION SETTLEMENT UNDER DYNAMIC LOAD IN REINFORCED SANDY SOIL [PDF]

Proceedings on Engineering Sciences
This research studies geogrid reinforcement of sandy soils under the influence of the three earthquakes (Halabjah, Bolunun, and Ali Al-Gharbi) due to the recent increase in seismic activity and the need to reduce damage to foundations due to settlement ...

Research on Optimized Seismic Design of Geogrid-reinforced Road Embankment

工程科学与技术, 2010
:To study the seismic design of subgrade engineering, subgrade seismic damage of Wenchuan 8.0 Earthquake was investigated. Two damage types of un-reinforced road embankment under earthquake were found, including slope collapsing and pavement cracking ...

Shear Strength Behavior for Reinforced Soil with Geosynthetic at Different Inclination Angles [PDF]

JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences
The interaction between soil and geosynthetic reinforcement is important for the design and performance of reinforced soil structures. This interaction can be very complex depending on the type, properties of the reinforcement and orientation for these ...

Mechanical Behavior of Geogrid Flexible Reinforced Soil Wall Subjected to Dynamic Load

Buildings
The geogrid flexible reinforced soil wall is widely used in engineering practice. However, a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamic behavior of reinforced soil wall is still required for a more reasonable application.
