This paper presents a numerical study on the investigation of microscopic mechanism
governing the interaction of woven geotextile and angular sand employing the 3D discrete …

Piles subjected to cyclic axial loading can experience loss of serviceability due to
accumulation of excessive deformations, which is a common failure mode for offshore …

The behavior of a sand-steel interface can be different than the shearing behavior of a sand.
This study focuses on the effect of shear loading on a sand-to-sand and a sand-steel …

This paper presents interaction experiments with transparent soil to investigate the load
transfer at the interface of different geosynthetic reinforcements. Microscopic interaction …

In this research, the effects of particle shape and surface structure on sand-geosynthetic
interface shear strength were quantitatively investigated using fractal theory. Three different …

Soil-structure interaction under vibration becomes an important concern for the underground
structure below or adjacent to a railway line as train speed is continuously raised. Although …

Based on the modified simple direct shear device which can directly measure the interface
pore pressure and interface shear displacement, a series of interface shear tests and …

The accurate estimation of the frictional resistance of interfaces between soils and
geosynthetics plays a central role in stability and serviceability of geosynthetic reinforced …

Applying textured geomembrane improves the frictional performance of geotextile and
geomembrane interfaces. However, very limited research has been conducted to analyze …

In ocean engineering, polymer layer is often adopted as waterproof materials, and the
