Analysis Of Three-Dimensional Pile Groups, M.T. Liang, Y. Liu Jun 1994

Analysis Of Three-Dimensional Pile Groups, M.T. Liang, Y. Liu

Journal of Marine Science and Technology

A numerical technique is presented in the analysis for loading behavior of general three-dimensional pile groups. The striking characteristics of the pile-group model may include raked pile, different pile sizes, non-uniform pile sections, soil inhomogeneit y, soil nonlinearity, and pile-soil-pile interaction. A typical six-pile group is analyzed and the results are compared with that obtained by four other computer programs that are based on different approaches. The computed solutions are shown to have reasonally good agreement with the measured values.

Faculty of Engineering - Papers (Archive)

In this paper, problems associated with mine waste water discharge quality in two mines are examined in the environmentally sensitive regions in NSW, Australia. In the first mine the problem of controlling and treating surface run-off from a large coal mine site is duscussed. Then study involved sampling and analysis of mine wastewater during various weather conditions over a period of six months. The samples were analysed for a range of physical and chemical water quality parameters. The study indicated that during minor storms, the mine wastewater treatment system worked effectively, but during a moderate to major storm, the treatment …
