...S. Samanta; K.-H. Yang; S. Rajesh; Y.-H. Fu; C.-W. Wu; H.-M. Wu; R. P. Rajak This study conducted a series of model tests on geosynthetic encased columns (GECs) stabilized slopes subjected to seepage to assess the effectiveness of GECs in enhancing slope stability. The model tests simulated...

...S. Banerjee; B. Manna; J. T. Shahu This study deals with extensive full-scale instrumented model testing on pavement sections with and without geocell reinforcement to evaluate the impact of different vehicular loading conditions on pavement performance. This study employed three different loading...

... in pavements, geocell-reinforced bases can be an effective solution in mitigating F-T damage to cold region roads. However, there is almost no research dedicated to understanding the potential benefit of geocells and the underlying mechanisms in this regard. This study employed a custom-made model test device...

... walls GRS walls Bearing capacity Model tests Physical modelling Digital image correlation (DIC) Geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) is an important component of infrastructure as it is widely used for retaining structures for slopes, cuttings, walls and abutments, to name but a few...

.... The behaviour of full-scale prototypes was analysed using the centrifugal modelling technique by Ovesen (1981) , Tagaya et al. (1983 , 1988), Dickin (1988) , and Dickin and Leung (1990 , 1992). In their study, the centrifuge model tests were conducted to represent stress levels corresponding...

... filter core (referred to as DPRF) is proposed. This paper studied the drainage characteristics of DPRF wrapped with a woven geotextile and traditional drainage pipes wrapped with a nonwoven geotextile (referred to as DPNG) in fine tailings sands with a reduced scale model test. The results showed...

...A. K. Choudhary; B. Pandit; G. L. Sivakumar Babu The paper investigates the behaviour of groups of horizontal square anchor plates in geogrid-reinforced sand using laboratory model tests. The optimum spacing for two anchor plates in unreinforced sand is 3.4 times the anchor width. The unreinforced...

... by two sets of model tests. It is shown that the stability of geocell-reinforced retaining walls may be analyzed by the general limit equilibrium method, provided that the apparent cohesion of geocell-reinforced soil is accurately estimated and the shape of the critical failure surface is properly...

... (i.e. vertical deformations) of the encased stone columns. However, the load transfer mechanism and the lateral bulging deformation pattern of the encased stone columns are not thoroughly understood. In the present study, four series of laboratory model tests in a large-scale testing tank were...
