Behaviour of micropiles in heterogeneous coarse soils [PDF]
This paper reports on an experimental investigation on the behaviour of small-diameter piles, commonly referred to as micropiles. This particular type of deep foundation is frequently used in many barely accessible Italian mountainous areas, often ...

Numerical modeling of the geotextile positioning angle in the base and Subbase layer of the road pavement [PDF]
Geotextile is a useful member of the geosynthetics family, characterized by high tension resistance, good filtration, and flexibility. One of its main applications is as a separator and border creator between base and subbase materials, preventing the ...

An experimental study of clogging of the geotextile filter system under normal stress
For simulating the actual working conditions, a series of gradient ratio tests of geotextile filtering clay are completed by using an improved gradient ratio permeameter that can apply vertical load.

Effect of woven geotextile reinforcement on mechanical behavior of calcareous sands
The mechanical properties of calcareous sands are critical as potentially important material sources for marine geotechnical constructions. Brittleness and large deformations created in calcareous sands can affect the stability of marine structures and ...

Experimental salt marsh islands: a model system for novel metacommunity experiments [PDF]
Shallow tidal coasts are characterised by shifting tidal flats and emerging or eroding islands above the high tide line. Salt marsh vegetation colonising new habitats distant from existing marshes are an ideal model to investigate metacommunity theory ...
