A Method to Test the Performance of a Prefabricated Vertical Drain
ABSTRACT Most of the minimum requirements of discharge capacity of prefabricated vertical drains are based on tests carried out on straight drains. However, after being installed in the ground the drains are subjected to deformation due to ground settlement.

Avoid construction failure by controlling settlement with a geosynthetic enchased geofoam granular column [PDF]
Soils with low bearing capacity (soft soils) can cause the collapse of overlying structures. Before the superstructure is built, the soft soil needs to be improved first.

Raised Source/Drain (RSD) and Vertical Lightly Doped Drain (LDD) Poly-Si Thin-Film Transistor
The raised source/drain (RSD) structure is one of thin film transistor designs that is often used to improve device characteristics. Many studies have mentioned that the high impact ionization rate occurring at a drain side can be reduced, owing to a ...

Consolidation by vertical drains
<p>Building the embankment of traffic infrastructure (roads and railways) requires faster and more quality construction. One of the problems that often occurs in achieving these goals is the consolidation, which often occurs long after the completion of construction, resulting in subsequent settlements and damage to the roads.

Nonlinear consolidation model for stratified soils with vertical drains based on spectral method
Many soft soil foundations with vertical drains are stratified, and the permeability and compressibility of soils change nonlinearly during the consolidation process.
