Investigation of Liquefaction Mechanism in Double Sand Lenses
author
Abstract:
In many cases of heavy earthquakes, liquefaction has resulted in serious damages. Existing anisotropy in soil layers results in some difficulties to realize the reason for these phenomena. Loose sand lenses buried in fine soils are one of the cases which may result in these problems and as a weak point during the earthquake can cause this phenomenon. In this paper, using FLAC 2D software, double sand lenses liquefaction mechanism and soil deformation due to applying cyclic loading has been studied and investigated. The FLAC software that has been used for analyzing is capable of modeling progressed models of soil and loading under different conditions.

Investigation of Liquefaction Mechanism and Displacement in Buried Sand Layers
One of the most important reasons for damages during earthquakes is the liquefaction of loose and saturated sand soils. However, in many regions with proper soil specifications, the large settlements have been observed in the ground surface. Loose sand layers buried in fine soils are one of the cases which may result in these problems and as a weak point during earthquake can cause this phenome...

Double lenses
The analysis of the shear induced by a single cluster, acting as a gravitational lens, on the images of a large number of background galaxies is all centered around the curl-free character of a well-known vector field that can be derived from the data; in particular, the mass reconstruction methods, currently producing many interesting astrophysical applications, are all based on this tensorial...

This study is an attempt to investigate the effect of the nano-kaolinite concentration on the liquefaction resistance of liquefiable sand from Gorgan city of Iran. To examine the influence of the nano-kaolinite concentration on the liquefaction resistance of nano-kaolinite-sand mixtures, three different nano-kaolinite concentrations: 3%, 6% and 9% were prepared. Cyclic triaxial tests were condu...

Investigation of Wear Mechanism in Quenched and Tempered Medium Carbon-High Chromium Martensitic Steel Using Dry Sand/Rubber Wheel
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of quenching and tempering temperatures on the microstructure, mechanical properties and the wear characteristics of medium carbon-high chromium wear resistant steel. In addition, the dominant wear mechanisms were studied. For this purpose, austenitizing and tempering temperatures were selected in the ranges of 900- 1000 °C and 300- 500...
