Effects Of Cyclic Loading Directions On Liquefaction Characteristics Of Saturated Coral Sand, Kang Liu, Guo-Xing Chen, Qi Wu, Wei-Jia Ma, You Qin
Effects Of Cyclic Loading Directions On Liquefaction Characteristics Of Saturated Coral Sand, Kang Liu, Guo-Xing Chen, Qi Wu, Wei-Jia Ma, You Qin
Rock and Soil Mechanics
The large scale construction of both military and civil infrastructures located in Nansha reefs and offshore marine areas, South China Sea, has raised the seismic safety a challenging issue for the projects in the region. The influences of fines content (FC) on the liquefaction characteristics of saturated terrestrial quartz sands have been extensively studied, but the corresponding research on saturated coral sands in reclaimed coral islands is less involved. Using the GDS hollow cylinder torsion shear apparatus, a series of isotropically consolidated undrained cyclic tests have been performed on saturated coral sand sampled from the Nansha Islands, South China Sea. …

Study On Bearing Capacity Of Permeable Pipe Pile By Field Optical Fiber Monitoring, Jing Wang, Tao Xiao, Hong-Hu Zhu, Guo-Xiong Mei, Zheng-Yuan Liu, Guang-Qing Wei
Rock and Soil Mechanics
Permeable pipe piles are set in the soft soil foundation to accelerate the dissipation rate of excess pore water pressure induced by pile driving and then to accelerate the consolidation of soil around the pile. At present, there are many studies, including model tests and numerical simulation, on the bearing capacity and permeability performance of permeable pipe piles. However, few field tests have been conducted to deeply study the time effect of bearing capacity and load transfer law of permeable pipe piles. Based on the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology, the static load tests were carried out to study the …
