A comprehensive series of three-dimensional x-ray computed tomography (XCT) imaging
experiments was conducted to quantitatively assess the multiphase particle-and pore-scale …

The growing tendency to study the behaviour of tapered piles in the last two decades has
made it necessary to gain a deeper insight into this specific kind of deep foundation …

Based on the theory of porous media, an interaction system of a floating pile and a saturated
soil in cylindrical coordinates subjected to vertical harmonic load is presented in this paper …

Soil-rubber mixtures underneath foundations are an eco-sustainable and low-cost
Geotechnical Seismic Isolation (GSI) solution. Using rubber grains from end-of-life tyres in …

The dynamic performance of helical piles is of significant interest because such piles can
offer an efficient alternative to conventional piling systems in many applications where the …

Seismic waves reflected from slope surface amplify ground surface motions in the area near
the crest. Therefore, the seismic response of structures considering seismic topography-soil …

Topography effects on the vertical vibration responses of pile group are revealed though
numerical analysis and model tests. First, a series of model tests with different topography of …

Monorail bridges play an important role in urban transportation networks, and their proper
seismic performance is an issue of great concern in earthquake-prone countries. Seismic …

This paper presents a simple method to predict the settlement of the composite foundation
with sparse prestressed tubular concrete (PTC) capped-piles under embankment. In this …

This study established a Couple Eulerian–Lagrange model to simulate monopile vibratory
penetration for the investigation of soil plugging effect during high-frequency penetration of …
