... pressure > bidirectional pressure > confining pressure. Regarding rock failure modes, under thermal stress, rocks primarily experience tensile failure. However, under rapid cooling of drilling fluid, shear failure predominates, with lateral pressure promoting the transition from shear to tensile...

... of improved soil strata. To provide suf®cient shear strength to the soil strata, which have to carry the large seismic forces coming from the structural inertia forces and hydrodynamic water pressures, soil improvement is proposed using driven hollow steel piles, 20 m long, 2 m in diameter, at regular spacing...
