Factors Influencing the Mechanical Characteristics of a Pile–Soil Interface in Clay Soil
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 A series of direct shear tests using a large-scale constant-normal-stiffness direct-shear testing system was conducted to study the factors that influence the mechanical characteristics of a pile–soil interface (PSI) in clay soil. Interfaces of different

Review and prospects of shear test of bolted rock joints
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The laboratory shear test equipment, test method, and numerical simulation of bolted rock joints were summarized. The shortcomings and limitations of the current research were analyzed, and the research prospects were proposed. Abstract Rock bolting is a critical approach in geotechnical engineering for supporting weak rocks.

Numerical analysis of suction embedded plate anchors in structured clay [PDF]
, 2016 As offshore energy developments move towards deeper water, moored floating production facilities are increasingly preferred to fixed structures. Anchoring systems are therefore of great interest to engineers working on deep water developments.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This paper investigates the high‐pressure water jet‐pick combined rock‐breaking mode (HPC), which employs high‐pressure water jets to precut grooves on both sides of the picks. The rock‐breaking patterns and performance of the HPC method are obtained, and the auxiliary rock‐breaking mechanism of water jet grooving is revealed.

Geotechnical Behaviour of a Malaysian Residual Granite Soil [PDF]
, 1999 Granite soil is widely distributed in Peninsular Malaysia. Steep terrain, heavy seasonal rainfall and deep tropical weathering are the main causes of numerous slope failures in this formation. Information on the shear strength of soil and its behaviour
