Hua-You Chai, Auteur ; Phoon, Kok-Kwang, Auteur ; Dian-Ji Zhang, Auteur |One-dimensional stress wave theory is widely used to analyze quantitatively the reflections in low-strain integrity testing of piles. However, a point or disk loading produces body and Rayleigh waves near the pile top. The multireflections of th[...]

Efficient evaluation of reliability for slopes with circular slip surfaces using importance sampling
Jianye Ching, Auteur ; Phoon, Kok-Kwang, Auteur ; Yu-Gang Hu, Auteur |Evaluating the reliability of a slope is a challenging task because the possible slip surface is not known beforehand. Approximate methods via the first-order reliability method provide efficient ways of evaluating failure probability of the “mo[...]

Jianye Ching, Auteur ; Phoon, Kok-Kwang, Auteur ; Yu-Gang Hu, Auteur |This study addresses the complexity of slope reliability problems based on limit equilibrium methods (LEMs). The main focus is on the existence of multiple failure modes that poses difficulty to many LEM-based slope reliability methods. In parti[...]

Phoon, Kok-Kwang, Auteur ; Anastasia Santoso, Auteur ; Ser-Tong Quek, Auteur |Direct measurement of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is costly and time consuming. A first-order estimate from statistical generalization of experimental data belonging to soils with similar textural and structural properties is usef[...]

Sivakumar, Bellie, Auteur ; Liong, Shie-Yue, Auteur ; Liaw, Chih-Young ; Phoon, Kok-Kwang |The Possibility of making short-term predictionof rainfall is studied by investigating the existence of chaotic behavior in the rainfall data series. The Minimum number of variables essential and the number of variables sufficient to model the d[...]
