The excavation construction of twin parallel tunnels is simulated by using centrifugal model tests. The internal stress and deformation variation of shield structure of the existing tunnel and the ground surface settleme...

The deformation properties of CFRD (concrete face rockfill dam) are studied through centrifuge tests by building concrete cover plate on the alluvium foundation. Three centrifugal model tests are conducted for the purpos...

Centrifugal model tests are carried out to simulate the construction and operation of the dike on a soft soil foundation for the purpose of taxiway construction on the seashore. The vertical strip drains are adopted for ...

Abstract Cities have become important actors in international relations, and integral to security and environmental politics. We are living in an increasingly urban world, dominated by human settlements and activities. T...

Genetic analyses of oyster seeds collected from settlement plates (in southeast Brazil Santa Catarina, N = 207) and from marsh plants (Argentina, Samborombón Bay, N = 20) revealed that most seeds did not belong to any o...

This study aims to determine how the students' creativity in solving math problems in class X if given the problems that are non-routine. This type of research is using qualitative approach. Subjects in this study were s...

En este trabajo presentamos los resultados de dos instancias metodológicas orientadas a maximizar la información de superficie: el análisis de planos y el relevamiento del material superficial. Esta metodología se ut...

The article analyzes impact of a full-scale war on the implementation of the decentralization reform. The decentralization reform, which began in 2014, was initially implemented against the backdrop of the Russian-Ukrain...

Abstract Large-diameter monopiles are extensively used to support onshore bridges, port terminals, and offshore wind farms due to their high load-bearing capacity, low settlement and excellent seismic performance. Meanwh...

O entendimento das mudanças em paisagens amazônicas depende de documentação das alterações na cobertura da terra. Este artigo parte de resultados do Experimento de Larga Escala de Biosfera-Atmosfera na Amazônia (L...

A large-diameter steel tube pile is used in a machinery factory in Shanghai to test the new produced diesel pile hammer. However, with the increase of the diesel hammer weight, it fails to meet the test requirements and ...

Soil acidity is one of the reasons for corrosion of steel piles. The material deterioration of steel pile foundation served in the acidic soil will affect the safety and durability of pile foundation. In order to underst...

The geomorphological map of the alluvial fans in the Colalao del Valle-Quilmes area represents the first detailed map of the Santa María Valley, Northwest Argentina. The map was made using photointerpretation of aerial ...

ABSTRACT The black-headed night monkey, Aotus nigriceps, has one of the largest distribution ranges of the 11 night monkey species found across Central and South America. Yet, only three studies have focused on their eco...

Based on a sorcery criminal process this article analyses both acculturation and strategies of resistance fostered in Indian settlements of Santiago del Estero. Focused mostly on the salamanca, a ritual that in some of i...

Abstract Permafrost degradation causes irreversible damage to Arctic civil infrastructure and threatens the broader pan-Arctic economy. Currently, the lack of community-scale, geomechanics-based mapping of Arctic infrast...

The centrifugal model tests and finite element models are conducted to investigate the influences of excavation of underground carvens on surface buildings. The time-history curves of index points and the settlement curv...

First, COVID-19 and then the full-scale war in Ukraine had a significant impact on the online civic and political activity of Ukrainians. In the face of restrictions on traditional forms of civic and political engagement...

Abstract Gate and earth-rock dam systems are the preferred dam types for river sections under deep overburden conditions, low head, and high flow rates. This study established a three-dimensional finite element model inc...

El reciente conflicto en Ucrania sacudió al sistema internacional en varios sentidos. El 24de febrero, Vladimir Putin ordenó el inicio de la intervención militar. Los países de la región se posicionaron de modos div...

La propuesta de este trabajo es estudiar una región -que es primero Territorio Nacional desde 1881 y luego provincia a partir de 1953- definida como marginal, en tanto espacio que se incorpora tardíamente y en condicio...

Neste artigo pretende-se dar uma contribuição ao debate a respeito do desenvolvimento rural, analisando a importância da luta pela terra como condição para a intensificação do número de assentamentos rurais. Fora...

Abstract This study investigates a Persian gum-waste carpet fiber (PG-WCF) composite as a stabilizer for silty soil intended for landfill liner applications and compares its performance with the soil stabilized using ord...
