Abstract The seismic response of monopile foundations is a growing area research as the offshore wind industry expands worldwide, including in earthquake prone regions world. This paper presents dynamic centrifuge tests aimed at investigating monopiles both dry and saturated sandy soils. latter case includes soil liquefaction under strong input motions, with measured excess pore pressures indic...

This research discusses the use of stone columns in increasing value safety factor on soils that have potential to experience liquefaction. study aims determine sandy soil area and after Stone Column planning. The method used liquefaction is Seed et al, based interpretation SPT (Standard Penetration Test) data using column as a improvement method. Based results study, it known each point has ex...

It is reported that the inclined pile could be either beneficial or detrimental for abutment they support in condition of liquefaction—induced lateral displacement. To clarify effect on seismic response bridge abutments undergoing displacement, numerical analyses were carried out damaged was supported by piles and displaced riverwards 100 mm–150 mm due to soil liquefaction during 2011 Great Eas...

Pile foundations have been the subject of interest for earthquake engineers since last several decades. The devastations caused in major earthquakes of the world can be the reason enough to carry out the research on the topic of seismic behavior of piles. One definite concern is liquefaction induced ground movement after the shaking in an earthquake, causing extra lateral loads acting on piles....

*Correspondence: Randel T. Cox, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Memphis, Johnson Hall, Memphis, TN 38152, USA e-mail: [email protected] Large-scale liquefaction features (e.g., sand blows, lateral-spread fissure vents) that can be recognized on remote-sensing imagery and photography have been of great utility in developing chronologies of paleo-earthquakes. In areas where large-s...

The acid-catalyzed liquefaction of rape straw in methanol using microwave energy was examined. Conversion yield and energy consumption were evaluated to profile the microwave-assisted liquefaction process. Chemical components of the bio-oils from various liquefaction conditions were identified. A higher reaction temperature was found to be beneficial to obtain higher energy consumption efficien...

10 Liquefaction of ligno-cellulosic biomass is one of the chemical conversion technologies for 11 developing new materials, adhesives and energy systems. The liquefaction process also 12 provides an opportunity to utilize ligno–cellulosic wastes such as saw-dust, woody wastes, 13 branches and twigs, agro-residues, etc. for the development of value added products. This 14 paper presents the liqu...

PURPOSE To investigate whether a histologic link exists between osmotic fiber cell swelling and cortical tissue liquefaction in experimentally induced diabetic and galactosemic cataractogenesis of the rat lens. METHODS Confocal laser scanning microscopy, in conjunction with specific membrane labels and correlative transmission electron microscopy, was used to image large cortical areas with p...

Effects of the recycle solvent hydrotreatment on oil yield of direct coal liquefaction were carried out in the 0.18 t/day direct coal liquefaction bench support unit of National Engineering Laboratory for Direct Coal Liquefaction (China). Results showed that the hydrogen-donating ability of the hydrogenated recycle solvent improved and the hydrogen consumption of solvent hydrotreatment was incr...
