This paper derives a semi-analytical solution to predict the development of negative skin
friction, caused by the consolidation of newly filled soil, on piles in the reclamation area. The …

This study presents a novel smoothed particle FEM (SPFEM) for large-deformation problems
in geomechanics. Within the framework of the particle FEM (PFEM), a strain smoothing …

This study proposed a semi-analytical solution for 2D electro-osmotic consolidation of
double-layered soil. The method of Laplace transform is employed to derive the solution in …

Electro-osmotic consolidation is taken as a valid and practical approach for soft ground
improvement, and it is of vital significance to study the consolidation behaviour of electro …

Electro-osmotic consolidation can be used as a valid and innovative technique for ground
improvement. Considering the limitation of previous studies that layered soil heterogeneity …

Electrokinetic stabilization is a newly developed technique, which was pioneered by
Cassagrand in 1940 and has been employed in railway embankment stabilization …

Porous materials are breeding beds of multiphysical processes due to their porous,
multiphase, and multicomponent nature. This chapter is intended to explain the strong …

Modelling of delayed failure of cut slopes in soft sensitive clays is a significant challenge
because of three major features taking place simultaneously: large deformation of the slope …

In this study, analytical solutions of the consolidation of vertical drains combined with
electroosmosis-vacuum-surcharge preloading are derived considering void ratio-dependent …

This study presents a fully explicit closed-form solution for axisymmetric electro-osmotic
consolidation considering smear effects. Different soil properties within and outside the …
