The two-dimensional large-plane structure of the nano-clay makes it difficult for the cracks to pass through the filler particles, and the cracks can only be transmitted along the edge of the filler, greatly enhancing the strength of the epoxy matrix. Aradhana et al. [96] studied the ...
TEMPORARY DECREASE OF CLAY MODULUS IN RESONANT COLUMN TEST. PROCEEDINGS OF THE ELEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOIL MECHANICS AND FOUNDATION ENGINEERI... During resonant column testing of cohesive soil specimens the value of low-amplitude modulus, immediately after the application of a confining pre...
In the manual excavation of heavy clay soils, the lose of fine root parts with diameter of <1 mm was inevitable because the fine roots were difficult to sep- arate from soil. Although parts of the fine roots were not sampled, the extent and branch of the whole roots could be directly ...
In spint2 mutants, cohesion among hatching gland cells and their collective intra-epidermal migration are disturbed, leading to a discontinuous organization of the gland. In addition, cells undergo precocious cell death before degranulation, so that embryos fail to hatch. Chimera analyses show that ...
House of Representatives as a percentage of the state's House delegation. The independent variable will be operationalized as a measure of party cohesion by taking the percentage of Democrats in each state's House delegation, subtracting 50% from that value, and then taking the absolute ...

The comparison of results for single and double under-reamed pile with a uniform diameter pile suggests that the provision of a bulb or under-reamed section to the pile helps in the increase in safe load and decrease in the settlement up to a certain value of the slope of linearly ...
The design curves yield non-conservative values of the ultimate pile capacity. Therefore, an adhesion factor of 0.45 is recommended for soils of the area. Higher values may be used but should not exceed a threshold value of 0.5.F. E. Osegi...
Very acid clay (pH 4 to 5), known to possess a very poor structure, gives a value of K 2 /K 1 close to unity. (b) It may not be safe to compare soils of differing clay content. A poorly structured sandy loam (12 per cent. clay) gives a much higher value of K 2 /K l ...
