The results indicated that: the evolution process of landslide deformation with pile foundation on could be divided into four stages including soil compaction, cracks growth, yield stage, and failure stage; ratios of the maximum soil pressure and bending moment growth from the soil compaction stage ...
Ignition was initiated in the same location and the amount of air leakage area was controlled by filling cracks around the doors and windows with fiberglass insulation. Of the seven experiments, Experiment 3 had a slower growing fire and Experiment 14 had a faster growing fire. The other five ...
Similarly, the embankment settlement decreased from 7.4 to 2.4 cm, and the maximum difference in the lagoon and embankment declined by 91%. Colder fluids with a temperature of −10 and −15 °C resulted in larger heave in the lagoon bottom which could initiate cracks in the wastewater ...
This might be attributed to the limited number of tests conducted on this construction typology, which leads to inconclusive statistical results, as well as to both the varying manufacturing process of the specimens, possible inhomogeneity of blocks (with small defects such as micro-cracks in the ...
1. Introduction The use of large-diameter steel tubular piles (LDSTPs) has gained significant popularity in recent decades. These piles are commonly employed as monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines [1,2]. Additionally, LDSTPs serve as self-standing steel tubular walls in situations ...
