seismic ground motion is profoundly affected by geometrical and mechanical properties of soil deposits overlaying bedrock. local seismic ground response of saturated soil deposits was studied in literature by applying the effects of soil stress state and index properties on the strain-dependent normalized shear modulus reduction, g/g0, and damping ratio, d, curves in an equivalent linear analys...

Electrical energy storage devices are crucial for and distribution purposes. MXene (MX), a 2D material, conductive organic polymers, such as polypyrrole (PPy), have been widely used electrode material in electronic devices. This work calculated the elastic modulus electrical conductivity of MX/PPy nanocomposite using finite element model. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was to optimize respo...

The Stiffness modulus is one of the necessary inputs in mechanistic-empirical pavement design and Quality Assurance/Quality Control (Q Q A C ) of pavement layers construction. The use of Portable Falling Weight Deflectometer (PFWD) for measuring the stiffness modulus of unbound pavement layers is increasing worldwide. The modulus can also be...

Real-time monitoring during soil compaction can be made possible by utilizing the vibration signature of a vibratory roller compactor. The compactor and soil constitute a coupled dynamic system, albeit complex and nonlinear. As the soil density increases and its mechanical properties change, the dynamic response of the compactor will change. Developing a thorough knowledge of the relationship b...

Elastic modulus is a very important physical aspect for biomaterials which impartial to various replacements as artificially hip joints, bone plate, and gum implants since it measures the material’s resistance be deformed elastically. This because “stress shielding effect” will result in re absorption of natural implant loosening if great difference elastic exists between biomaterial human bone...

in-situ testing techniques have proven to be successful in improving the speed and reliability of geotechnical investigations. one of the most common in-situ methods in engineering geology and site investigation is cone penetration test (cpt), which is mainly used for characterization of soils, as it is a robust, simple, fast, reliable and economic test that can provide continuous soundings of ...
