Strength And Deformation Behaviour Of Jointed Rocks : An Equivalent Continuum Model
(2009-06-30)
Most rock masses encountered in civil and mining engineering projects contain pre-existing discontinuities. These discontinuities weaken the rock masses to an extent, which depends very much on the size of engineering ...
A Study On Inelastic Response Of Multi-Storey Buildings To Near-field Ground Motions
(2009-07-21)
With the advancement in knowledge of inelastic response of structures, the design and construction practices of reinforced concrete buildings have been changing worldwide. Most of the codes are incorporating the near-fault ...
Passive Earth Pressure Coefficients And There Applications In The Uplift Capacity Of Anchors
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-10-13)
The problem of passive earth pressure is one of the important topics in Geotechnical engineering. At attempt is made in this thesis to generate passive earth pressure coefficients for general c-Φ soils using logarithmic ...
Studies On Compacted Stabilised Fly Ash Mixtures And Fly Ash Bricks For Masonry
(2010-04-12)
Fly ash is a waste product from thermal power plants where pulverised coal is used for the generation of electricity. Fly ash is being utilised in the blended cements, additive for concrete and manufacturing of concrete ...
Enhancing The Potential Of Class F Fly Ashes For Geotechnical And Geoenvironmental Applications
(2013-07-19)
Thermal power station in most countries is saddled with the problem of fly ash disposal and unless suitable avenues are found for its proper use, this would pose a gigantic problem to the power sector. Disposal of huge ...
Numerical Modeling Of Jointed Rock Mass
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-02-28)
The behavior of jointed rock mass is very complex and is influenced by many factors such as location of joints, joint frequency, joint orientation and joint strength. A thorough review of literature on different aspects ...
Pozzolanic Additives To Control Dispersivity Of Soil
(2016-11-13)
The aim of the present investigation is to improve the geotechnical properties of
dispersive soil by reducing their dispersivity after elucidating the important mechanisms controlling the dispersivity of the soils. ...
