Revolving rivers in sandpiles: from continuous to intermittent flows
, 2007 In a previous paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 014501 (2003)], the mechanism of "revolving rivers" for sandpile formation is reported: as a steady stream of dry sand is poured onto a horizontal surface, a pile forms which has a river of sand on one side owing

An innovative experimental device for characterizing the responses of monopiles subjected to complex lateral loading [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesOffshore wind turbines are usually founded on monopiles. During the operation period, the structure is subjected to complex lateral loading from wind, wave and current.

Angle of Repose and Angle of Marginal Stability: Molecular Dyanmics of Granular Particles
, 1992 We present an implementation of realistic static friction in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of granular particles. In our model, to break contacts between two particles, one has to apply a finite amount of force, determined by the Coulomb criterion.

Interaction of piled foundation with a rupturing normal fault [PDF]
, 2013 Post-seismic observations in the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake in Turkey have indicated that piled foundations may be less suitable than stiff mat foundations in defending a structure against a major normal fault rupturing underneath.

Modelling and Assessment of a Single Pile Subjected to Lateral Load
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2018 A three-dimensional finite element technique was used to analyse single pile lateral response subjected to pure lateral load. The main objective of this study is to assess the influence of the pile slenderness ratio on the lateral behaviour of single ...

Statistical Assessment of Parameters Affecting Firebrand Pile Heat Transfer to Surfaces
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2021 Firebrands are known to cause ignition of structures far from the primary fire front, resulting in significant damage to structures before firefighting can be attempted.

An intelligent hammer: a novel concept for automating nail and pile driving [PDF]
, 2005 Some interesting novel ideas on how the compliance needs of manipulators may be met by changing the stiffness of a structure have been presented in a paper by Ang and Andeen [1].

The mixing time of the Thorp shuffle
, 2005 The Thorp shuffle is defined as follows. Cut the deck into two equal piles. Drop the first card from the left pile or the right pile according to the outcome of a fair coin flip; then drop from the other pile. Continue this way until both piles are empty.
