Behavior of a Sand Ridge Model

نویسنده

  • Juan Mario Restrepo
چکیده

A model for the formation and evolution of longshore sand ridges in waters deeper than the shoaling region suggests that a possible but by no means exclusive agent for the formation of these bars are weakly nonlinear dispersive long waves. The model describes how these water waves, which are represented by wave packets, and a sandy bottom topography, conspire to produce sand ridges. This study examines the behavior of the model, and investigates how speciic morphological features of the sand ridges depend on the water waves' characteristics.

Constitutive Model for Multi-laminate Induced Anisotropic Double Hardening Elastic-plasticity of Sand

A constitutive multi-laminate based elastic-plastic model developed to be capable of accounting induced anisotropic behavior of granular material such as sand. The fabric feature or grain orientation characteristic effects through medium are considered in a rational way under any complex stress path, including cyclic loading. The salient feature of the developed model is a non-associative on pl...

Diagnostic Measures in Ridge Regression Model with AR(1) Errors under the Stochastic Linear Restrictions

Outliers and influential observations have important effects on the regression analysis. The goal of this paper is to extend the mean-shift model for detecting outliers in case of ridge regression model in the presence of stochastic linear restrictions when the error terms follow by an autoregressive AR(1) process. Furthermore, extensions of measures for diagnosing influential observations are ...

Multilaminate Elastoplastic Model for Granular Media

A multilaminate based model capable of predicting the behavior of granular material on the basis of sliding mechanisms and elastic behavior of particles is presented. The capability of the model to predict the behavior of sand under arbitrary stress paths is examined. The influences of rotation of the direction of principal stress axes and induced anisotropy are included in a rational way witho...

Liquefied Residual Strength of Undrained Sand upon A Parametric Approach to Hypo-elastic Model

A parametric study approach evaluating drained/undrained behavior of sand has been developed as a simple/quick hypo-elastic model capable of being used in engineering applications. The volumetric interaction of sand grains behavior against pore water pressure induces the tendency of soil mass volume change to contract/dilate due to variation of effective mean stress on solid grain, pore water p...

Behavior of Model Circular Footings on Silty Soils with Cellular Supports

An experimental study of the effect of silt and influence of cell confinement on the bearing capacity of circular footings on silty sand was carried out. Laboratory experiments on clean sand and sand containing silt up to 25 % were performed. Cells with different heights and diameters were used to confine the silty sand. The effect of proportion of silt in sand, cell diameter, cell height and t...
