Centrifuge modelling of sand compaction piles in soft clay under embankment load
Sand compaction piles are used in practice for ground improvement of soft subsoil in order to accelerate consolidation, reduce compressibility, and increase strength. The current design procedure of sand compaction piles is based on simple empirical calculations, which does not take full account of the sand pile behaviour. This research project investigates the behaviour of a base reinforced em...
متن کاملNumerical Study on the Cavity-Induced Piping Failure of Embankment
Abstract—Cavities are frequently found beneath conduits on pile foundations in old embankments. Cavity reduces seepage length significantly and consequently causes piping failure of embankments. Case studies of embankment failures indicate that the relative settlement between ground and pile supported-concrete conduit was the main reason of the cavity. In this paper, an attempt to simulate the ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Snow Drifting Disaster on Embankment Project
Snow drifting is a typical natural disaster, and an increasing importance has been attached to its theory research and field observation for the sake of cold region engineering. Numerical simulation, as an efficient method of studying snow drifting, promises to be widely applied in this field. In this paper, the finite element method is used to simulate the wind velocity field. Selected upwind,...
متن کامل2D NUMERICAL MODELING OF WAVE TRANSFORMATION ON SOFT MUDDY BEDS
The present paper offers a numerical model which can be applied for the simulation of wave height distribution on a 2-D horizontal soft mud layer. The model is based on mild slope equations and it includes combined wave refraction, diffraction, reflection and breaking. The high energy dissipation of wave height due to the presence of fluid mud layer has also been simulated. Wave height attenuat...
متن کاملNumerical modelling of nonlinear behaviour of soft biological materials
Biological materials such as, for instance, the human skin, brain tissue, papillary muscles, and arteries are often characterized as nonlinear elastic materials. Various attempts at characterizing a strain-energy density function for such materials have been made.1-4 In normal physiological functioning, as well as in inadvertent circumstances such as injuries, these materials are subject to fin...
