Pore Water Pressure Generation and Energy Dissipation Characteristics of Sand–Gravel Mixtures Subjected to Cyclic Loading

open access: yesGeotechnics
At least 32 case histories have shown that liquefaction can occur in gravelly soils (both natural deposits and manmade reclamations) during severe earthquakes, causing large ground deformations and severe damage to civil infrastructures.

Experimental Investigation of the Liquefaction Properties and Post-Liquefaction Volumetric Strain of Calcareous Sand in Dredger Fill Site

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
In this study, dynamic triaxial cyclic tests were conducted to examine the liquefaction properties and post-liquefaction volumetric strain of calcareous sand from a dredger fill site in the midst of the islands and reefs of the South China Sea.

Advancements in CO2 Capture Technologies: A Review of Amine Absorption and Alternative Methods for Post‐Combustion Integration

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.

Analysis of the Shaft Resistance of Nondisplacement Piles in Sand

open access: yes, 2008
The paper examines, using numerical modelling, the problem of the limit shaft resistance of non-displacement piles installed in sands. The modelling makes use of an advanced, two-surface-plasticity constitutive model.

Assessment of liquefaction potential of palar sand blended with rubber tire using cyclic triaxial testing

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
Liquefaction of saturated sandy soils during seismic loading is a critical geotechnical issue, and the use of recycled tire-derived materials has emerged as a sustainable method for improving soil behavior.

Experimental study on effect of coexistence of clay and silt on static and dynamic liquefaction of sand

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
In order to study the influence rules of clay and silt on the liquefaction resistance of sand in the mixture of clay, silt and sand, based on the static and dynamic triaxial tests, the sand specimens with two different fines (clay and silt) contents (FCs)

Tuning the Magnetic Phase Transitions in TbMn2‐xTixSi2 (x = 0–0.3)

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Magnetocaloric materials receive considerable attention as promising candidates for next‐generation energy‐efficient and environmentally benign solid‐state refrigeration technologies. These materials exhibit the magnetocaloric effect (MCE), whereby heat is absorbed or released upon the application or removal of a magnetic field. In this study,

Effect of membrane penetration on liquefaction resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The liquefaction of saturated sand is due to a negative dilatancy. In the cyclic triaxial test, a part of pore water squeezed from sample is transformed into the reduction of membrane penetration and so the perfect undrained test can not be performed ...

Impact of methods used to reconstitute tailings specimens on the liquefaction potential assessment of tailings dams

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal
The aim of this research is to investigate the liquefaction susceptibility of silt sandy mining tailings by experimental laboratory techniques. The main aspect analyzed is how techniques of sample reconstitution impact the results obtained in static ...
