Scaling Considerations for 1-g Model Horizontal Plate Anchor Tests in Sand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper addresses scaling issues related to small-scale 1-g model tests on plate anchors in sand under drained loading conditions. Previous centrifuge studies from the literature have suggested that the results of conventional 1-g model testing are ...

Numerical Investigation of Bored Tunnelling Effects on Pile‐Supported Superstructures

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 7, Page 3155-3173, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Tunnelling in urban environments can significantly affect existing buried structures such as pile foundations. However, the current understanding of how tunnelling‐induced ground movements influence the stability and serviceability of piles remains limited. This knowledge gap presents potential risks that must be addressed during tunnel design

Seismic Performance of Confined Sill Plate Connections

open access: yes, 1996
In the aftermath of the 1994 Northridge earthquake, extensive field investigations revealed damage in wood frame construction in the form of splitting of the 2 X 4 or 2 X 6 wood sill plates along the line of anchor bolts that typically connect shear ...

‘Manure gets into your veins’: Navigating plural valuation among rural landowners upstream from a Tribe‐led restoration project

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1309-1327, May 2026.
Abstract Ecological restoration projects with diverse interest groups face the continual challenge of engaging values, goals and cultures that may vary greatly among partners. As part of an eco‐cultural, riparian restoration project led by the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, our research examines the instrumental, relational and intrinsic ...
