2021 Seismic Performance Analysis of Concrete Gravity Dams Book by Gaohui Wang, Sherong Zhang, and Wenbo Lu

Leave a Comment / Civil Architecture All General Softwares, Civil Books Platform, Civil Engineers Basic Books, Geo technical Engineering Book / By

This book evaluates the seismic performance of concrete gravity dams, considering the effects of strong motion duration, mainshock-aftershock seismic sequence, and near-fault ground motion. It employs both the extended finite element method (XFEM) and concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) models to characterize the mechanical behavior of concrete gravity dams under strong ground motions, including the dam-reservoir-foundation …

Design of Pile Foundations in Liquefiable Soils Book by Gopal Madabhushi, Jonathan Knappett, and Stuart Haigh

Leave a Comment / Civil Books Platform, Geo technical Engineering Book / By

Pile foundations are the most common form of deep foundations that are used both onshore and offshore to transfer large superstructural loads into competent soil strata. This book provides many case histories of failure of pile foundations due to earthquake loading and soil liquefaction. Based on the observed case histories, the possible mechanisms of failure …

Principles and Practice of Ground Improvement by Jie Han

1 Comment / Civil Books Platform, Geo technical Engineering Book / By

Ground improvement is popular in many countries to solve difficult geotechnical problems, especially when construction necessarily occurs in problematic soils and under difficult geotechnical conditions. Many recent developments in equipment, materials, and design methods have made ground improvement technologies more effective, efficient, and economic. However, the state of practice for most ground improvement technologies is …
