The most traditional pseudo-static methodology as proposed by Mononobe–Okabe gives the direct approximation of earth pressure in seismic condition. This paper utilised the pseudo-dynamic methodology to figure out the seismic earth pressure on rigid wall with cohesion less backfill along with considering the effects of time, phase difference, soil amplification factor along with the variation in seismic velocities. The main contribution is the soil amplification and backfill inclination which is not given much attention before. By considering the above factors coefficients the seismic earth pressure against retaining wall is determined. The coefficient of seismic passive earth pressure decreases with the increase of soil amplification keeping other properties as standard values. The value of coefficient of seismic active earth pressure increases with increase of soil amplification. The comparison is also done without taking backfill angle for both coefficients of seismic earth pressures. The influence of all the soil properties like backfill angle, wall friction angle, soil friction angle, non-dimensional parameters are shown in tabular format as well as in the graphical with respect to the soil amplification which is more realistic towards the design.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49579204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The excavations were carried out in lithologies with good geotechnical characteristics, for this reason, overbreak was not expected. To determine if the overbreak was done due to operational negligence, mathematical models were developed to quantify (1) the overbreak by the peripheral divergence involving the specific load of the explosives used in the peripheral zone of the tunnel, (2) the geotechnical quality of the rock mass, and (3) the operational aspects. For the mathematical modelling, it was necessary to characterise the causes of excavation damage zone (EDZ), considering the participation of the developer and the contractor. To analyse the calculations and determine the acceptable limits, the Swiss standard SIA 198, which recommends a maximum tolerable overbreak, was used.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44902380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Laboratory analyses of the soils, which followed standard methods, revealed that they are erodible in nature. Results of correlation, principal component and factor analyses revealed the relationships between geotechnical variables, which were later used for artificial neural network (ANN) modelling. Soil particle distribution was predicted and analyzed using ANN1 (with sigmoid output activation) and ANN2 (with identity output activation). However, ANN2 gave more reliable prediction than ANN1, with R2 averaging 0.913 and 0.522, respectively. Low ANN model errors were also reported. Furthermore, soil erodibility potential, with emphasis on the grainsize distribution, was predicted using logistic regression analysis (LRA). The LRA results showed that the model accurately classified soil erosion events by 90%, and further revealed that sand content is the priority influencer of soil erodibility, more than gravel and fines contents. Thus, the likelihood of high soil erosion events in the area increases with sand %. The logistic regression model was tested for reliability based on Cox & Snell and Nagelkerke R-squares – R2 = 0.593 and R2 = 0.791, respectively – indicating that the model is acceptable and reliable.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45206637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of them are based on simplifying assumptions. With the objective of arriving at a reliable few-parameter analytical model, two- and single-parameter mechanical equivalents of a rigorous continuum foundation model proposed by the first author are presented that are adjusted with respect to the finite-element (FE) software, PLAXIS. The performance of both variants of the model is tested on beams by comparing with other analytical models and with FE models for a range of variables. Both variants performed remarkably well, especially the two-parameter variant. The adjusted model parameters are provided for practical use. Adjustment factors are also established for the popular Vlasov’s model. Comparison between the proposed and FE models shows that Vlasov’s adjustment factor is sensitive and varies over a comparatively wide range, and the model even becomes unadjustable for short beams. In contrast, the proposed models consistently yield very good results for all ranges of beams with an adjustment factor that is less sensitive and varying within a narrow range confirming their good quality.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47465986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the effect of overburden stress has been studied less with empirical methods due to the lack of appropriate data.

Two of these models do not contain the overburden stress parameter, but the other two models contain the overburden stress parameter. The prediction performance of the models containing the overburden stress parameter was obtained drastically higher than the others.

Its deposit is increasing year after year posing a threat to the environment and occupying large precious land. The present research explores the possibility of its application in road construction and filling. Physical and chemical tests were carried out, viz. SEM, EDS, X-ray diffraction and toxicity characteristics leachate procedure. The geotechnical characterisation was carried out and compared with similar types of materials, viz. soil and industrial wastes (fly ash and jarofix). Stress-settlement behaviour was studied by using a small scale physical model and validated by a numerical model test. Tailing was further mixed with cement to improve its properties for application in stabilised layers. Tailing is a porous, multi-phase and non-swelling cohesionless fine-grained material. It contains mainly oxides of silica, alumina, magnesium, calcium and less concentration of heavy metals. It has a high dry density (18.62 kN/m3), California Bearing Ratio (11%) and angle of internal friction (34°) compared to soil which makes it suitable for road construction. Cement stabilised tailing can be used in sub-base layer and can save about 170 mm thickness of the aggregate layer. Modulus value (18.17 MPa) indicates that it is a stiff material which leads to less settlement as a structural fill.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46289559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results for anthracene-contaminated specimens improved with three percent Portland cement (by weight of clay) were approximately equivalent to those improved with 10% lime. The results for glycerol-contaminated specimens improved with nine percent Portland cement was approximately equivalent to that improved with 10% lime. According to the results, both Portland cement and lime were able to improve the clay soil contaminated with anthracene and glycerol, but Portland cement had a greater effect than lime on the anthracene-contaminated specimens because of the non-polar behaviour of anthracene and the grain-like (flocculated) behaviour of the contaminated soil. These factors were the result of a decrease in the diffuse double layer thickness by anthracene, which has a lower dielectric constant relative to water. The lime had a greater effect than cement on the specimens contaminated with glycerol because of the polar behaviour of glycerol, the increase in the required moisture content for hydration, and because the dielectric constant of glycerol is close to that of water. These results were evaluated and confirmed by scanning electron microscopy.","PeriodicalId":46470,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanics and Geoengineering-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42675832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
