Sedimentation and Consolidation of cohesive and non-cohesive soils formed under turbulent flows
… and erosion of mixed soil material (cohesive and non-cohesive). Soil beds formed by sedimentation process of loose particles will be either show a segregated or homogeneous in structure, depending on the depositional environment. These sediments initially undergo self-weight …

An investigation of the structural capacity of the Alabama Department of Transportation’s standard prestressed precast concrete piles
… particularly uses them in the coastal regions in non-cohesive soils and where corrosion would be expected from salt or brackish water. ALDOT’s currently listed pile design capacities in their structural design manual (SDM) were found to be lower than those for similar PPCP pile sizes used in …

Improving the design, construction, and maintenance of Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement (PICP) in South Africa
… widening joints, and lack of maintenance. The non-woven heat-bonded upper geotextiles that have been specially selected in the past owing to their ability to promote nutrient removal in PICP were found to be susceptible to puncturing in areas with considerable turning traffic. Maintenance …

Thermisch-hydraulische Simulationen zur Optimierung von Vereisungsmaßnahmen im Tunnelbau unter Einfluss einer Grundwasserströmung
… describe the freezing process in fully saturated soils. The unfrozen water content is used as main variable of the freezing stage and allows deriving thermal properties of the soil, namely thermal conductivity and thermal capacity, by mathematical models. By means of experiments it is shown, that …

Non-cohesive bank migration in meandering rivers and bank accretion in weakly braided rivers
… rivers whose banks consist wholly, or partly, of non-cohesive bed-material-sized alluvial deposits; such banks are known as composite banks when the near-surface layers consist of fine-grained deposits. The relevant forces and environmental conditions that must be taken into account to quantify …
