An Analysis of Soil–Pipe Interaction in Sand by Photoelastic Approach and an Analytical Approximation

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 2145-2160, 25 June 2025.
ABSTRACT In‐situ stress condition is an important aspect of buried unpressurized pipelines. Empirical approaches used for preliminary design are usually based on observations, which may be associated with some errors related to the measurement method. The photoelastic approach represents an alternative, nonintrusive measurement technique to model the ...

Groundwater Hydrodynamic Oscillations From Swash With Transparent Sand (GHOSTS)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Interactions between surface flows and groundwater in beaches can influence erosion and accretion, wave overtopping, groundwater levels and salinization, and transport of nutrients and pollutants. Laboratory experiments using transparent crushed quartz and optically matched mineral oil as proxies for sand and water allow the degree of ...

Numerical Analysis of Pile‐Supported Reinforced Embankments in Deep Soft Soil Regions Based on Soft Soil Creep Parameter Optimization

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
When analyzing the engineering characteristics of pile‐supported embankments in deep soft soil regions, the creep behavior of soft soils cannot be overlooked. In previous numerical analyses, empirical formulas were often used to determine related parameters, which limited the accuracy of the calculations.

Enhanced Stability and Liquefaction Resistance of Earth Dams With a Proposed Method of Geosynthetic Reinforcements

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study evaluates the static and seismic stability of the Narasimharaya Sagar (Gorukallu Balancing Reservoir) earthen dam, located in India’s seismically active Zone II. Using GeoStudio software, seepage, slope stability, and liquefaction analyses were conducted to assess the dam’s performance under static and dynamic conditions.

Causes of Tensile Strain of Asphalt Concrete Core Wall of Rockfill Dam in High‐Cold Area During Construction

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Asphalt concrete core rockfill dams, favored for their superior impermeability and adaptable deformation capacity (effectively accommodating uneven settlement), have been gaining increasing attention in Chinese engineering practice. However, ensuring safety during high‐temperature paving and subsequent cooling remains crucial.
