Experimental study on mechanism for pumping-induced land subsidence [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2020 Groundwater pumping can cause severe land subsidence, yet the mechanisms have not been completely clear. A laboratory physical model test was done to investigate the mechanism for pumping-induced land subsidence.

The Influence of Compaction on the Mechanical Behaviour of a Silty Sand
Soils and Foundations, 1998 The paper analyses the mechanical behaviour of a silty sand, as it was measured in laboratory tests on samples prepared with different density and moisture contents. After a description of the physical characteristics of the material, the methods used to prepare compacted and slurry-consolidated soil samples are reported, followed by a description of ...

Experimental Study on the Soil Conditioning Materials for EPB Shield Tunneling in Silty Sand
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 Earth pressure balance (EPB) shield tunneling in a silty sand stratum is frequently faced with the wear of rotary cutter disc, clogging, or even collapse of workface due to its noncohesive and discrete properties of silty sand material. Soil conditioning
