Numerical Investigation on Dynamic Response of Liquefiable Soils Around Permeable Pile Under Seismic Loading
Permeable piles have been widely adopted as a new anti-liquefaction treatment measure in the liquefiable site. The dynamic numerical analysis to study the anti-liquefaction effects of liquefiable soils around ...

Finite element prediction on the response of non-uniformly arranged pile groups considering progressive failure of pile-soil system
A uniform arrangement of individual piles is commonly adopted in the conventional pile group foundation, and basin-shaped settlement is often observed in practice. Large differential settlement of pile groups ...

Test Perceptions on the Degradation of Aggregate Subjected to Cyclic Triaxial Loading
Aggregates are the principal materials of railway ballast, which for the most part contain huge, angular particles with a normal size of roughly 40 mm. Well-designed ballast is attractive to resist the pressur...

Evaluation of Ultimate Pullout Capacity of Anchor Cables Embedded in Rock Using a Unified Rupture Shape Model
Anchor cables are now widely used to stabilize many kinds of geostructures in practice. However, the prediction of the anti-pullout performance of anchor cables still involves uncertainty for designer. This pa...

Cyclic degradation and non-coaxiality of soft clay subjected to pure rotation of principal stress directions
Foundation soils are often under non-proportional cyclic loadings. The deformation behaviour and the mechanism of non-coaxiality under continuous pure principal stress rotation for clays are not clearly inves...

Discrete numerical modeling of granular materials considering crushability
The aim of this study is to numerically investigate the influence of particle breakage on the mechanical behavior of granular materials using a discrete element method (DEM). To enable particle crushing, non-c...
