Characterization of cement-kiln-dust stabilized base/subbase aggregate.
(1998)
In this study, a laboratory testing program was undertaken to determine the resilient modulus and other properties of a cement-kiln-dust (CKD) stabilized aggregate that are important to the design and rehabilitation of ...
Effect of additives on surface free energy characteristics of aggregates and binders in hot mix asphalt.
(2007)
U.S. spends approximately $20 billion/year on asphalt pavements with disproportionately high maintenance costs of $9.3 billion/year. Better performance of asphalt pavements is crucial to reducing these maintenance costs. ...
The poromechanics of naturally fractured rock formations: A finite element approach.
(2003)
The mathematical models have been cast into finite element form and verified against analytical solutions for one-dimensional consolidation and an inclined wellbore in a fully saturated single-porosity formation subjected ...
Failure mechanisms of buried pipelines under fault movement and soil liquefaction /
(1983)
A simplified pipe model on a time dependent elastic foundation is proposed to stimulate a liquefaction situation of a liquefiable zone during earthquakes and the finite difference technique coupled with a time-increment ...
A mathematical model and integrated simulation for urban flood and land use analysis /
(1983)
A mathematical model for estimating potential urban flood damages was developed. Model parameters and variables were determined and verified by statistical analyses. HEC-1 and HEC-2 programs were used to simulate the ...
Pressuremeter and cone penetrometer testing in a calibration chamber with unsaturated Minco Silt.
(2005)
The focus of this study is to investigate the influence of matric suction (&psgr; ) on PMT and CPT results by conducting miniature pressuremeter (MPMT) and miniature cone penetrometer (MCPT) testing in a calibration chamber ...
Testing and modeling of unsaturated interfaces.
(2005)
A conventional fully automated direct shear test device was modified to achieve the objectives of this study. The newly developed device, called the Unsaturated Interface Direct Shear Apparatus (UIDSA), was equipped for ...
