Drained triaxial response of clay reinforced with sand columns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In ground-improvement applications involving stone columns in soft clays, the columns act as drains that facilitate partial drainage during practical load applications.

Sand transport in multiphase pipelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Over the life of an oil and gas reservoir, it is likely to encounter sand production. In offshore production fields, as there are lack of processing facilities nearby, gas, liquid and sand are often transported together in long distance pipelines.

Booming Sand Dunes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
"Booming" sand dunes are able to produce low-frequency sound that resembles a pure note from a music instrument. The sound has a dominant audible frequency (70-105 Hz) and several higher harmonics and may be heard from far distances away.

Shyshatska sand arena: History, current state, and prospects of afforestation

open access: yesUkrainian Journal of Forest and Wood Science, 2023
Non-afforested lands in Ukraine are the primary instrument for increasing the forest cover of the territory The issue of sand afforestation is relevant in the context of climate change.

Mass Permeability Concept in the Analysis of Treated Ground with Sand Drains

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1995
When a soft clay foundation under embankment loading is considered, settlement behavior is affected by the mass permeability and by the magnitude of applied load intensity, which is normalized by the initial undrained bearing capacity. Using these two parameters, the characteristic consolidation settlement behavior of a clay foundation can be ...

Study of Permeability of Glass-Sand Soil

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2017
The drainage consolidation method has been efficiently used to deal with soft ground improvement. Nowadays, it has been suggested to use a new sand soil which is a composite of sand and recycled glass waste.

An investigation of correlation factors linking footing resistance on sand with cone penetration test results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Significant research effort has led to improvements in our ability to estimate the ultimate bearing resistance of footings in sand. These techniques often estimate the footing resistance at relatively large displacements, typically 10% of the footing ...

Geophysical and Sedimentological Investigations Integrate Remote-Sensing Data to Depict Geometry of Fluvial Sedimentary Bodies: An Example from Holocene Point-Bar Deposits of the Venetian Plain (Italy)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Over the past few millennia, meandering fluvial channels drained coastal landscapes accumulating sedimentary successions that today are permeable pathways.

Consolidation Analysis of Ideal Sand‐Drained Ground with Fractional‐Derivative Merchant Model and Non‐Darcian Flow Described by Non‐Newtonian Index [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2019
To further investigate the rheological consolidation mechanism of soft soil ground with vertical drains, the fractional‐derivative Merchant model (FDMM) is introduced to describe the viscoelastic behavior of saturated clay around the vertical drains, and the flow model with the non‐Newtonian index is employed to describe the non‐Darcian flow in the ...
