In recent years, various studies have been undertaken on how to use waste materials in civil engineering projects. Among waste materials, waste rubber has been highlighted to be used for different purposes such as reinforcing of soil and making of reinforced slopes. To investigate the properties of granulated rubber-soil mixture and its application in making of slopes behind retaining walls, so...

We describe a grid-based numerical method for 3D hydrody-namic cosmological simulations which is adaptive in space and time and combines the best features of higher order–accurate Godunov schemes for Eulerian hydrodynamics with adaptive particle–mesh methods for collision-less particles. The basis for our method is the structured adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) algorithm of Berger & Collela (198...
