Shear wave velocity, V s, is a soil mechanical property that can be advantageously
measured in both the field and laboratory under real and controlled conditions. The …

Cengage Learning has provided you with this product (the “Supplement”) for your review
and, to the extent that you adopt the associated textbook for use in connection with your …

A database of shear-wave velocity (V s) measurements using a variety of techniques and
soil properties measured on high-quality samples for 28 Norwegian sites has been …

We present a numerical study on the DEM modeling of cohesive solids using a visco-elasto-
plastic frictional adhesive contact model [1]. The capabilities of the contact model to capture …

Empirical equations for predicting the small-strain shear-wave velocity, VS, of soils of
different geologic age from cone penetration resistance are presented in this paper. The …

Factors for correcting liquefaction resistance for aged sands using ratios of measured to
estimated shear-wave velocity (MEVR) are derived in this paper. Estimated values of shear …

The Engineering of Foundations, Slopes and Retaining Structures rigorously covers the
construction, analysis, and design of shallow and deep foundations, as well as retaining …

An integrated suite of environmental methods was used to characterize the hydrogeological,
geological and tectonic regime of the largest waste disposal landfill of Crete Island, the …

Quantifications of uncertainties in soil shear strengths, including undrained shear strength of
clay, are essential for geotechnical reliability-based design. In particular, how to reduce the …

In this study, a model based on soil behavior type index (I c) has been proposed for the
conversion of field cone penetration test (CPT) data to the standard penetration test (SPT) …
