Interaction between internal solitary waves and the seafloor in the deep sea
Deep Underground Science and EngineeringInternal solitary wave (ISW), as a typical marine dynamic process in the deep sea, widely exists in oceans and marginal seas worldwide. The interaction between ISW and the seafloor mainly occurs in the bottom boundary layer. For the seabed boundary layer

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 ...

Stress–dilatancy relationship for railway ballast
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2018 Knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of ballast is very important for designing a railway track, especially for high-speed lines. The monotonic drained triaxial tests of scaled and fouled ballast presented in literature were analysed using the ...

Experimental bearing capacity of eccentrically loaded foundation near a slope
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2019 Based on the response of small-scale model square footing, the present paper shows the results of an experimental bearing capacity of eccentrically loaded square footing, near a slope sand bed. To reach this aim, a steel model square footing of (150 mm ×
