In the last few years, the use of geocell reinforcements in various infrastructural projects has
gained importance due to its positive benefits. This paper reviews the developments and …

Comprehensive results from laboratory model tests on strip footings supported on the
geocell and planar reinforced sand beds with the same characteristics of geotextile are …

Buried high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipelines have been extremely vulnerable to
terrorist attacks and third-party damage in recent years, so it is important to study the …

The results of laboratory-model tests on strip footings supported on unreinforced and geocell-
reinforced sand beds under a combination of static and repeated loads are presented. The …

This paper presents the results of the laboratory model tests and the numerical studies
conducted on small diameter PVC pipes, buried in geocell reinforced sand beds. The aim of …

Service trench provision and maintenance of buried pipes represent major cost items in the
utilities industry. Using recycled material in order to optimize the design of the buried pipe …

This paper describes a series of laboratory model tests performed on strip footings
supported on 3D and planar geotextile-reinforced sand beds under a combination of static …

The importance of the buried pipelines lies in two main topics: the first is related to the very
long length of these pipes, and therefore protecting them is expensive. The second topic is …

To study the settlement and dynamic response characteristics of shallow square footings on
geogrid-reinforced sand under cyclic loading, 7 sets of large scale laboratory tests are …

Accurate and real-time estimation of underground pipelines' response to external loads is
essential, in which the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technique has shown great potential. A …
