Relationship between electrical resistivity and basic geotechnical parameters for marine clays

Developing a theoretical relationship between electrical resistivity, temperature, and film thickness for conductors

Experimental evidence has made it clear that the size of an object can have an effect on its properties. The electrical resistivity of a thin film will become larger as the thickness of that film decreases in size. Furthermore, the electrical resistivity will also increase as the temperature increases. To help understand these relationships, a model is presented, and equations are obtained to h...

ANN FOR CORRELATION BETWEEN SHEAR WAVE VELOCITY OF SOIL AND SOME GEOTECHNICAL PARAMETERS

Shear wave velocity (Vs) is known as one of the fundamental material parameters which is useful in dynamic analysis. It is especially used to determine the dynamic shear modulus of the soil layers. Nowadays, several empirical equations have been presented to estimate the shear wave velocity based on the results from Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and soil type. Most of these equations result i...

Relationship Between Strain and Electrical Resistivity of Vulcanized Rub- ber Filled with Carbon Nanofiber

Rubber material generally behaves as an electrical insulator, but vapor-grown carbon fiber (VGCF) is known for its electrical conductivity. Thus, we compounded styrene-butadiene rubber and carbon nanofiber (VGCF), and studied the relationship between strain and the DC electrical resistivity of vulcanized rubber filled with carbon nanofiber. No change of hardness was observed in hardness tests. ...

Addressing the Geotechnical Challenges Posed by Soft Clays

the relationship between critical thinking and reading strategies

during the process of reading, sometimes learners use ineffective and inefficient strategies and some factors may influence their use of strategies. perhaps critical thinking is one of these factors. this study aims to identify those categories of reading strategies that are mostly used by iranian efl learners and to see if there is any significant relationship between the critical thinking abi...
