Hand gesture, a ubiquitous feature of human interaction, facilitates communication. Gesture also facilitates new learning, benefiting speakers and listeners alike. Thus, gestures must impact cognition beyond simply supporting the expression of already-formed ideas. However, the cognitive and neural mechanisms supporting the effects of gesture on learning and memory are largely unknown. We hypot...

One of the main reason of earth-dam breaks is inner erosion which is caused by washing fine soil particles and finally lead to seepage inside the dam. Seepage will decrease effective tension in the earth-dam's core and arching phenomena is occurred. More settlement of core than to shell is the consequence of arching and occurrence of cracking. In this paper, GeoStudio software based on finite e...

In this paper, the membrane effect of geogrid reinforcement was investigated based on numerical simulation to understand serviceability and deformation highway piled embankments under moving vehicle loads. The in low (i.e., ratio embankment height pile spacing is less than 1.5) clearly emphasized. It has been found that maximum settlement occurs central area between piles, tension concentrated ...
