AXIAL TENSILE CAPACITY OF HELICAL PILES FROM FIELD TESTS AND NUMERICAL STUDY [PDF]
Helical piles are used to support structures subjected to axial and lateral loads. The main object of the paper is to study the behavior of helical piles in cohesive and cohesionless soils using a full scale field testing.

Effect of helicity and rotation on the free decay of turbulent flows [PDF]
The self-similar decay of energy in a turbulent flow is studied in direct numerical simulations with and without rotation. Two initial conditions are considered: one non-helical (mirror-symmetric), and one with maximal helicity.

Effect of Fractional Kinetic Helicity on Turbulent Magnetic Dynamo Spectra [PDF]
Magnetic field amplification in astrophysics ultimately requires an understanding of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Kinetic helicity has long been known to be important for large scale field growth in forced MHD turbulence, and has been recently ...

Some observations on statnamic pile testing [PDF]
Limited guidance on usage and methodology is currently available to engineers for the most common rapid load pile test, known as Statnamic. In order to improve the analysis of Statnamic testing in clay soils a full-scale instrumented auger bored pile was

Large-diameter helical pile capacity – torque correlations [PDF]
Large-diameter helical piles are utilized increasingly to support heavy structures. Both the magnitude of the required installation torque and the pile capacity can be directly attributed to the soil shearing resistance developed over the embedded area of the pile including the shaft and helical plates.

Numerical Modelling of Axially Loaded Helical Piles: Compressive Resistance [PDF]
Helical piles are foundation systems used to support compression, tension, and lateral loads. However, this type of piles was used around the world for more than 25 years. Its behavior, especially in Iraq, is still unknown and scare. The present study is
