Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Modeling of Laterally Loaded PilesS.T. Kok, Bujang B.K. HuatDesign of laterally loaded piles due to soil movement relies on a number of theoretical and numerical approaches. However, the magnitude of soil movement is difficult to estimate with reasonable confidence and accuracy. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) offers an excellent alternative to study pile-soil interaction and pile’s response under lateral loading due to soil movement. This research presents published analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,452 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFailure Mode and Pullout Capacity of Anchor Piles in ClayYanbing Zhao, Haixiao Liu, Mengyuan LiuAnchor piles are wildly adopted in mooring systems. However, there are still challenges in predicting the failure mode and pullout capacity of the pile. Previous Finite Element (FE) analysis was all based on the traditional small strain FE analysis. The whole pullout process of the pile cannot be simulated. Hence, the failure mode of the pile is hard to be … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2017 · 8,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTime-Dependent Behavior of Piles under Combined LoadingsMohd Raihan Taha, Qassun S. Mohammed Shafiqu, Zamri H. Chik, Jasim M. AbbasThis study investigates time-dependent lateral response of piles in elastoplastic soils under combined axial and lateral loadings. Mohr Coulomb model representing the soil and the finite element formulation were described and verified. The transient analysis of pile problem was then carried out and the results of the analysis were presented which demonstrate the effects of the consolidation process on the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,060 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNonlinear Behavior of Single Piles in Jacket Type Offshore Platforms Using Incremental Dynamic AnalysisMohammad Amin Assareh, Behrouz AsgarianThe operation for offshore oil has become an important issue in the recent years. Offshore platforms are some of those structures which are built to withstand environmental and accidental loads during oil exploitation operation. One of the most usual types of these platforms is the Jacket Type Offshore Platform (JTOP) which can be divided into three important parts, which are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 9,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEngineering of Ground for Liquefaction Mitigation Using Granular Columnar Inclusions: Recent DevelopmentsA. Murali Krishna, M.R. MadhavProblem statement: Liquefaction was the most hazardous damage during an earthquake. Ground improvement techniques were employed to mitigate liquefaction hazards. Most common methods to improve engineering properties of soils are densification, reinforcement, grouting/mixing and drainage. Among various remedial measures available, installation of columnar granular inclusions is the most widely adopted method for liquefaction mitigation. Approach: Columnar granular inclusions function as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Compost Production from Fruit and Vegetable Market Waste: A Case Study in Bagua, Amazonas (Peru)Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Wilfredo Ruiz Camacho, Juan Francisco Robles RuizInadequate management of organic solid waste in municipal markets represents a critical environmental challenge in tropical developing regions, where high humidity (>80%) and elevated temperatures (>25°C) accelerate decomposition, generating leachate and greenhouse gas emissions. In Peru, over 50% of municipal waste is organic, yet less than 20% is valorised through composting, highlighting a substantial technological gap. This study evaluated an … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 1,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Properties of Concrete Including Wood Shavings as Fine AggregatesAshraf A. M. Fadiel, Taher Abu-LebdehResidual and end-life products are a major hazard on the environment. Many researchers have considered waste as partial replacement of some construction materials to reduce their environmental and ecological problems. This kind of practices can be an important option for the protection of the environment. Wood shavings and saw dust are byproduct of the lumber industry. They are made from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2021 · 7,040 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpread Foundations on Rigid Inclusions Subjected to Complex Loading: Comparison of 3D Numerical and Simplified Analytical ModellingDaniel Dias, Bruno SimonThis paper relates results of a large number of 3D numerical models of a single spread footing over a soil reinforced by four rigid inclusions and submitted to a large set of complex loading. This numerical study using the FLAC 3D software was done under funding of the ASIRI research project in an aim to support appropriate guidelines for design … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 12 Sep 2015 · 6,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of Escherichia coli with the Prevalence of Flies PopulationHassan Flayiah Hassan, Marryam AlkafagiMass releases of house fly Musca domestica (L) and stable fly Stomoxys calcitrans (L). Produced by manure piles accumulated nearby horse stables and dairy farm village in Abu-Graib provide continuous threat to inhabitants west of Baghdad. Timing of fly’s mass release in association with the presence of Escherichia coli in manure piles was examined at these locations. Experimental result indicated … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2013 · 7,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Effect of Pile Skin Resistance Verses Pile Diameter Based on Experimental ResearchS. M. Marandi, M.A. KarimzadehIn spite of the many recent advances in pile design and execution methods, the quantitative effects of grouted pile skin resistance and form on subsequent pile behavior remains an area for research. There are many parameters involved in the analysis of the bearing capacity of piles and descriptive method theory of the loading effect for each parameter is very complex. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,273 accessesView PDFCite
