The ordinary (OSC) and geosynthetic-encased stone column (ESC) with different bearing strata significantly influenced its behavior. paper established seven models for studying the behavior of floating columns using finite difference method (FDM). effect geogrid length on load-settlement behavior, bulging deformation, failure mode, load transfer coefficient were also analyzed based proposal mode...

This paper describes the results of three-dimensional (3D) finite element analyses investigating installation effects groups stone columns in purely cohesive soils. Installation is simplified to insertion rigid cylindrical elements with conical tips a single homogeneous soil layer (Tresca plasticity and quasi-incompressible elastic law). column simulated as reference case installations two grou...

Pterygodermatites ( Paucipectines ) hymanae n. sp. (Rictulariidae) collected from the Incan shrew opossum, Lestoros inca , from Peru is described herein. These nematodes show a subapical, slightly dorsal oral opening and a laterally compressed buccal capsule with 2 conspicuous lateral walls and a dorsal wall. Each lateroventral wall possesses 4 relatively large denticles, and the dorsal wall ha...

In order to study the bearing characteristic of geosynthetic-encased stone column (GESC) on composite foundation, a series field tests and numerical simulation were carried out foundations reinforced by traditional GESC. The pile–soil stress ratio, excess pore water pressure lateral displacement two kinds monitored. effects geotextile stiffness, wrapping length gravel internal friction angle fo...
