This article presents a method to estimate dynamic compaction crater depth using empirical equations. As main reference, three physical model studies that used sand and clay soils were considered (Jafarzadeh in Proceedings of the international conference on performance-based design earthquake geotechnical engineering, pp 1–8, 2006; Arslan et al. ICE Ground Improv 11(2):61–66, 2007; Yuan Geotech...

Withdrawal of oil and gas from reservoirs causes a decrease in pore pressure and an increase in effective stress which results to a reservoir compaction. Reservoir compaction will result in surface subsidence through the elastic response of the subsurface. Usually in order to determine the subsidence above a hydrocarbon field, the reservoir compaction must be first calculated and then the effec...

this research was performed to investigate the combined effect of soil salinity and compaction on some physiological characteristics of corn. for this purpose a factorial pot experiment on the basis of completely randomized design with three replications was performed. the experimental factors were three levels of soil salinity (saturated paste extract electrical conductivity 1.5, 2.5 and 4.5 d...
