SAR differential interferometry is an innovative space-based measurement technology for ground deformation. Under inclement Qinghai-Tibet plateau environment, monitoring and analysis of railway subgrade deformation using satellite interferometry in plateau permafrost region has very important engineering significance for stability evaluation and safety management. In the paper, a brief descript...

Pile buckling is infrequent, but sometimes it can occur in slender piles (i.e., micropiles) driven into soils with soft layers and/or voids. Buckling analysis of becomes more complex if the pile surrounded by multi-layered soil. In this case, well-known Timoshenko’s solution for no use because refers to single-layered soils. A variational approach herein proposed. The proposed method allows est...

abstract due to limited water resources in agriculture, application of each strategy to economize water use and increase area under cultivation is very important. one such strategy is deficit irrigation. for optimal planning of deficit irrigation, it is necessary to determine different sensitive stages of plant water shortages. in this study the effect of deficit irrigation on growth and yield ...

One of the key issues in structural and geotechnical engineering is that most parts buildings are usually analysed separately then outputs used foundation designs. In this process, some effects neglected. study, soil–structure interaction (SSI) foundations concrete was evaluated using direct finite element method (DFEM). 3D models were developed to analyse with different stories constructed on ...

Analysis of 171 samples taken from the Neogene cohesive soils of the Southeastern edge of the Granada basin shows inverse correlation between carbonate content and dispersion index and swelling behaviour and direct correlations between carbonate content and shear strength. This paper shows that carbonate content and clay fraction activity have a great influence on the compaction characteristics...
