Mineralogy in Geotechnical Engineering [PDF]

Journal of Engineering Science and Technology Review, 2010
The several investigations on soils by different researchers have been executed, but research on soil mechanical properties based on mineralogy is very meager, in this regard the author intention is employee of natural minerals for evaluation of soil cohesion, it may leads to developments of a soil with appropriates characteristics in permeability ...

3D Engineering Geological Modeling to Investigate a Liquefaction Site: An Example in Alluvial Holocene Sediments in the Po Plain, Italy

Geosciences, 2022
Liquefaction-induced surface manifestations are the result of a complex geological–geotechnical phenomenon, driven by several controlling factors. We propose a multidisciplinary methodological approach, involving engineering geologists, geomorphologists,

Geotechnical design with apparent seismic safety factors well-bellow 1 [PDF]

, 2014
The paper demonstrates that whereas often in seismic geotechnical design it is not realistically feasible to design with ample factor of safety against failure as is done in static design, an "engineering" apparent seismic factor of safety less than 1 ...

The Domus Nozze D'Argento in Pompeii: Structural Diagnosis Using Geophysical Methods

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring of ancient buildings is an issue of great interest in view of a proper restoration. This paper describes the noninvasive monitoring of the Domus Nozze D'Argento in Pompeii. The Roman house, as occurred for many other buildings in Pompei, was buried in the ash from the 79 ad eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
