Three large 10 m high standpipe tests were set up at the University of Alberta in 1982 to simulate large-scale compression behavior of oil sands tailings in a controlled environment. The objectives of the tests were to study material behavior an[...]

A semi-empirical model is proposed in this paper to predict the variation of modulus of elasticity with respect to matric suction for unsaturated sandy soils using the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) and the modulus of elasticity under sa[...]

A new method of using large-diameter, cast–in situ concrete pipe (PCC) piles for embankments over soft clay is introduced in this paper. This PCC pile method offers a relatively quick and cost-effective way for soil improvement as compared with [...]

Cracks are prevalent in near-ground-surface soils and provide preferential pathways for fluid flow. Cracks increase water infiltration or contaminant solute transport into soils. This paper studies the development of a permeability tensor and a [...]

Most of the seismic calculations currently used for the evaluation of seismic bearing capacity are formulated in terms of a linear Mohr–Coulomb failure criterion. However, experimental evidence shows that a nonlinear failure criterion is able to[...]

This study deals with development of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and multiple regression analysis (MRA) models for determining hydraulic conductivity of fine-grained soils. To achieve this, conventional falling-head tests, oedometer fallin[...]

A model for predicting displacement-dependent lateral earth pressure was proposed based on an earth pressure – displacement relationship commonly observed in practice. The proposed model is a monotonically increasing and bounded function, with a[...]

The major rivers within the City of Winnipeg are founded in glacial Lake Agassiz clay and silt sediments that have low shear strength. As such, riverbank instabilities are a common issue along many stretches of the rivers. The use of rockfill co[...]

Past and current research has clearly established the detrimental effects of inadequate subsurface drainage within a road environment. In response, pavement engineers have developed a number of theoretical models to establish the lateral drainag[...]

Stress relief in the form of small displacements and a pop-up has occurred in a line-drilled, blast-free quarry in Archean granite 100 km east of Winnipeg. A 60 m by 19 m and up to 1.5 m thick block, forming the east wall of the quarry, has unde[...]
