Approximate analytical solutions for modeling subsurface flow
… with vertical, unsaturated flow of water in a homogeneous soil column of finite length with arbitrary initial conditions. The boundary conditions considered at the soil surface correspond to pre-ponding and post-ponding infiltration.

Finite element analysis for consolidation of multilayered and anisotropic soils
… pressure during consolidation of linear elastic soils by using the finite element method. The formulation of the method is based on a variational principle. The numerical characteristics of the method for one- and two-dimensional problems in plane strain were examined and the results were …

A Procedure To Develop Scalable Reduced Models For The Transient Response of Sleepers In Conventional And High-speed Railway Lines.
… of scalable reduced models for the through-the soil interaction and traveling wave effects of distant sleepers in a long railway track. For development purposes, and, without loss of generality, the geometry of the sleepers is consistent with the UIC-60 track system commonly used in European …

Transport and fate of veterinary sulfonamide antibiotics in soil
… fluxes of pharmaceuticals in the agricultural soils. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the transport processes of veterinary sulfonamide antibiotics (Sulfadimethoxine, Sulfamethazine, and Sulfamethoxazole) in agricultural soils in Haean catchment located in South Korea. In …

Plant species effects on soil organic matter turnover and nutrient release in forests and grasslands
… characteristics, the formation and turnover of soil carbon and nitrogen pools, and ecosystem processes such as net N mineralization. My objective was to examine two possible effects of species on soil C and N dynamics; changes in organic matter quality and changes in soil aggregation. For …

The Impact of Rolling Dynamic Compaction
… of improvement that are possible in varying soil conditions. Current practice dictates that practitioners rely on personal experiences or available published project case studies that are limited in scope and applicability as they are typically aimed at achieving a project specification. …

Scaling effect in cone penetration testing in sand
… of information that can be used to identify soil type and define important engineering parameters. More recently, the CPT has shown considerable potential for calculation of settlements of footings on sand, determination of pile capacity, assessment of ground pressures, and evaluation of …

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PRACTICE MONITORING USING LONG-TERM TIME LAPSE ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY TOMOGRAPHY AND SOIL SENSORS: IMPLICATIONS FOR DESIGN, MAINTENANCE, AND SOIL MOISTURE MONITORING
… as survey results are sensitive to changes in soil moisture and fluid conductivity, which are essential parameters when tracking infiltration and road salt influx at these SMPs. Additionally, the ERT data can be converted to soil moisture values using Archie’s law, which is important for …

Contribution to kinematic and inertial analysis of piles by analytical and experimental methods
The problem of pile - soil interaction is examined in the Thesis at hand by means of both theoretical analyses and experimental investigations. Pile foundations in seismically prone areas are subjected to both direct loading, such as axial and lateral forces imposed at their heads, resulting from a …
