Triaxial compression tests on a crushable sand in dry and wet conditions [PDF]

, 2015
A calcareous sand from the Persian Gulf is subjected to a series of dry and fully drained saturated triaxial shear tests. The samples are prepared at relative densities of 65% and either left dry or saturated. They are consolidated to confining pressures

Time‐ and State‐Dependent Damage Accumulation Due to Aftershocks Under an M9.0 Megathrust Earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a comprehensive framework for assessing time and state‐dependent aftershock damage accumulation under an M9.0 megathrust interface earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ). The framework integrates aftershock probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (APSHA) and state‐dependent fragility analysis (SDFA) within a ...

Similar Material Simulation Study on Dam Movement and Deformation Law of Deep Coal Seam Mining Under Dam

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Aiming at the difficulties in accurately calculating the movement and deformation of small‐sized, deep‐buried dams with a significant height‐to‐depth ratio in deep fully mechanized caving mining, this study proposes to separate the analysis of surface and dam deformation.

Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties and Micromechanisms of Cement-Improved Granite Residual Soil

Advances in Civil Engineering
To enhance the engineering properties of granite residual soil for subgrade filling, cement is incorporated to improve the soil. Through compaction tests, direct shear tests, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) tests, the influence of adding different

Investigation of Lateral Stress Relief on theStability of PHI = 0 DEG Slopes Using Laboratory, Fracture Mechanics, and Finite Element Method Approaches [PDF]

, 2011
Total stress analyses of purely cohesive cut slopes utilize the undrained shear strength for slope stability analyses. These slopes can have an in-situ lateral earth pressure that is greater than the vertical pressure.

Resistome flow in global landfill systems

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Global landfill systems represent key hubs of resistome, serving as dynamic reservoirs and amplifiers through plasmid‐driven gene mobility. Waste flows and environmental pathways sustain the transboundary resistome networks, accelerating resistance dissemination across ecosystems.
