Common design of MSE walls is based on a lateral earth pressure approach. A key aspect in design is the determination of the reactive force in each reinforcement layer so as to maintain the system in equilibrium. This force leads to the selectio[...]

The design, construction, and performance analyses of a 6.1ha evapotranspiration (ET) landfill cover at the semiarid U.S. Army Fort Carson site, near Colorado Springs, Colo. are presented. Initial water-balance model simulations, using literatur[...]

Water-balance predictions made using four codes (UNSAT-H, VADOSE/W, HYDRUS, and LEACHM) are compared with water-balance data from a test section located in a semiarid climate simulating a monolithic water-balance cover. The accuracy of the runof[...]

Laboratory experiments were conducted on a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) containing Na–bentonite to determine how the swell index and hydraulic conductivity of GCLs are affected by wet-dry cycling with solutions having different relative abundan[...]

Observations after earthquakes where surface fault ruptures crossed engineering facilities reveal that some structures survived the rupture almost unscathed. In some cases, the rupture path appears to divert, “avoiding” the structure. Such obser[...]

A maximum likelihood framework for the probabilistic assessment of cyclically induced reconsolidation settlements of saturated cohesionless soil sites is described. For this purpose, over 200 case history sites were carefully studied. After scre[...]

Although the capabilities of engineering surface wave methods have improved in recent years due to several advances, a number of issues still require study to further improve the capabilities of modern surface wave methods. Near-field effects, w[...]

It has been recognized that the ductility demands on a superstructure might be reduced by allowing rocking behavior and mobilization of the ultimate capacity of shallow foundations during seismic loading. However, the absence of practical reliab[...]

Traditionally, analyses developed for circular piles have also been used for rectangular piles by replacing in calculations the rectangular pile with a circular pile of equivalent area. In this paper, we present a settlement analysis that applie[...]

An alternative approach of analyzing laterally loaded piles in the ubiquitous spreadsheet platform is presented. The numerical procedure couples nonlinear pile flexural rigidity (EpIp) with nonlinear p-y analysis. The deterministic study is then[...]

The influence of pore-water pressure and the pool water pressure on stability of submerged slopes was investigated using the kinematic approach of limit analysis. For soils with some cohesive component of strength, the critical pool level is sli[...]

Particle crushing can adversely affect geotechnical system performance; examples include clogging in wells, pile shaft capacity degradation, and postconstruction settlements. The generation of fines results in volumetric compression and a reduct[...]

Use of a ballast is still popular in railway engineering due to its resilience, relatively low noise, and convenience in construction and maintenance. The ballast layer was modeled with two modeling approaches in this study–continuous elastic so[...]
