Time-dependent uplift capacity of driven piles in low to medium density chalk [PDF]
, 2017 A series of load tests have been performed on instrumented 762 mm dia. tubular steel piles driven into low to medium density grade A/B chalk at St Nicholas at Wade, Kent, UK. This paper presents the results from the static axial uplift tests, which were

Slip rates on the Chelungpu and Chushiang thrust faults inferred from a deformed strath terrace along the Dungpuna river, west central Taiwan [PDF]
, 2007 The Chelungpu fault produced the September 1999 M_w = 7.6 Chi-Chi earthquake, central Taiwan. The shortening rate accommodated by this structure, integrated over several seismic cycles, and its contribution to crustal shortening across the Taiwanese ...

Response of piles to inclined uplift loads
European Journal of Computational Mechanics, 2007 This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element analysis of the response of piles to inclined uplift loads. It deals with the influence of the soil-pile interface on this response. Calculations are carried out for several load’s inclinations and different conditions at the soil-pile interface. The concept of the “critical depth” at the soil-pile

Millennial slip rate of the Longitudinal Valley fault from river terraces: Implications for convergence across the active suture of eastern Taiwan [PDF]
, 2006 The Longitudinal Valley fault is a key element in the active tectonics of Taiwan. It is the principal structure accommodating convergence across one of the two active sutures of the Taiwan orogeny.

Buildings, 2023 As a typical pullout foundation, the uplift pile has been widely used in ocean projects or geotechnical engineering, but the accurate prediction of its ultimate pullout capacity has always been a difficulty in engineering design.

Developing screw piles for offshore renewable energy application [PDF]
, 2020 This paper details the work undertaken at the University of Dundee in the last 5 years to develop understanding of screw piles to allow them to be deployed offshore as an alternative foundation type to driven piles used in jacket structures.

Extremely low long‐term erosion rates around the Gamburtsev Mountains in interior East Antarctica [PDF]
, 2010 The high elevation and rugged relief (>3 km) of the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains (GSM) have long been considered enigmatic. Orogenesis normally occurs near plate boundaries, not cratonic interiors, and large‐scale tectonic activity last occurred in ...
