  Grouting Theory and Practice
Posted by: bridgeengineer - 04-19-2016, 12:20 PM - Forum: Geotechnical Engineering - No Replies

Grouting Theory and Practice



[Image: 93588325102641584123.jpg]
  • Author(s): E. Nonveiller (Eds.)
  • Published By: Academic Press, Elsevier
  • Published Year: 1989
  • Size: 5 MB
  • Quality: Unspecified
  • Abstract: Grouting is a construction process by means of which the highly erratic permeability and deformability of foundation rock and soil are homogenized. The main parameter governing the design and construction of grouting works is the permeability of the rock or soil, which is established by means of field permeability tests. This book assembles information on rock and soil grouting from various sources, together with the author's personal experience on several grouting projects. Some aspects of permeability testing of rock and soils are elaborated, and the use of theoretical ground water percolation studies for clarification of design options for grout curtains are presented. The results achieved by grouting are presented and analysed on examples of constructed grouting works (curtains, tunnels, foundations, lifting of structures). Particulars of the performance of the permeability tests and their evaluation are studied in some detail, since they can very much distort the results obtained, and thus lead to erroneous design assumptions. Systematic grouting and adjustment of the injection process to the development of grout consumption and pressure during injection is discussed in connection with the achievement of the required permeability standard. The application of grouting to reduce the permeability and the deformability of the foundation of dams and hydrotechnical structures is presented, together with a number of illustrative examples. Characteristics of contact and consolidation grouting of dam foundations and tunnel linings are described. The possibilities and examples of rock prestressing by means of grouting are reported, and the results from several applications are discussed. Examples of lifting and levelling leaning structures by means of grouting are also reviewed. The book is illustrated by 180 drawings and 20 photographs, and a list of symbols used in the formulae, plus a glossary of specific terms use

  Creep of Soils and Related Phenomena
Posted by: bridgeengineer - 04-19-2016, 11:35 AM - Forum: Geotechnical Engineering - No Replies

Creep of Soils and Related Phenomena

Author(s)/Editor(s): JAROSLAV FEDA (Eds.) | Size: 8 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Academic Press, Elsevier | Year: 1992 | pages: 422 | ISBN: ISBN-13: 978-0444988225


[Image: 15923492339424408435.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

In this volume, soil creep is analysed within the framework of other soil-rheological phenomena, such as stress relaxation and long-term resistance, to present an in-depth discussion of the effect of time on soil behaviour. As time is the only state parameter which cannot be entirely modelled in the laboratory, the presented extrapolation is based upon a combination of appropriate theoretical analysis, and the principles of the physical behaviour of soils affected by state parameters such as porosity, water content, stress, strain, time and temperature. Principal macro- and microrheological theories are analysed, and a comprehensive picture of the soil structure and of the effect of state parameters is presented, documented by the author's experiments and illustrated by many examples. The theory of hereditary creep was selected as the best theory serving the author's purpose to propose simple constitutive relations governing creep of soils. The proposed constitutive relations have been implemented into FEM programs and the effect of the time factor has been demonstrated by the solution of such boundary value problems as a dams and underground tunnels. This volume should be of interest to civil engineers, scientists, research and postgraduate students, and advanced undergraduates.

  Dams and Earthquakes
Posted by: bridgeengineer - 04-19-2016, 11:18 AM - Forum: Geotechnical Engineering - No Replies

Dams and Earthquakes

Author(s)/Editor(s): HARSH K. GUPTA and B.K. RASTOGI (Eds.) | Size: 5 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Academic Press, Elsevier | Year: 1976 | pages: 264 | ISBN: eBook ISBN : 9780444600554


[Image: 83833854621677117926.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

Dams and Earthquakes deals with the association of earthquakes and large artificial lakes, particularly on the part that pore pressure plays in inducing earthquakes. The book also contains methods for recording seismic activity, before, during, and after the filling of reservoir dams through the installation of a network of portable seismographs. The text assesses the parameters and macroseismic effects of the Koyna earthquake in India in December 1967, as well as the instrumental and macroseismic data showing that the Koyna earthquake is a multiple seismic event. The book investigates the geology, hydrology, and seismicity of seismic reservoir sites, including three cases of induced seismicity after fluid injections in deep wells. A possible correlation between the reservoir level or volume of the injected fluid and the tremor frequency exists. The characteristic seismic features of reservoir associated earthquakes can reflect changes in the mechanical properties of rock masses near the reservoirs. The book also investigates the part played by increased pore-fluid pressures in triggering the earthquakes at Denver, Rangely, Kariba, Kremasta and Koyna. The UNESCO Working Group on "Seismic Phenomena Associated with Large Reservoirs" recommends the adoption of a two-phase planning in instrumental studies and surveys at sites to be used for large reservoirs. The book can be beneficial for meteorologists, environmentalists, geologists, civil engineers, structural engineers, or for officers of river and lake authorities.

  Laptop/ Mobile Workstation Choice
Posted by: inge911 - 04-18-2016, 11:36 PM - Forum: Free Discussion - No Replies

Hi CivilEA Members!

I'm writing this post because I'm currently facing a problem with choosing a new Laptop/Mobile Workstation. I've been using my current laptop since 2011, which is a Dell Inspiron N5110 (CPU Intel Core i7-2670QM, 8GB RAM, 256gb SSD and GPU Nvidia Geforce GT525m). I use it for running ETABS v15, SAFE, SAP2000, AutoCAD 2D, TEKLA Structures (currently learning) and sometimes to open and check REVIT Models.

The point is that I don't really know whether choose a gaming laptop with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960/970 M or a Mobile Workstation with a Nvidia Quadro M1000M  (maybe an ATI FirePro w5170), since there's not much information about the performance of previously mentioned workstation GPU. To make things worse, I'm not able to spend more than 900-1100 dollars right now.

The question is, which one of these GPU-CPU combinations would you recommend me for my next laptop upgrade?

Nvidia Geforce GTX 960/965/970M - i7-4720HQ
Nvidia Geforce GTX 960/965/970M - i7-5700HQ
Nvidia Geforce GTX 960/965/970M - i7-6700HQ
Nvidia Quadro M1000M - i7-6820HQ
Nvidia Quadro k2100M - i7-4720HQ
ATI FirePro W5170M - i7-6820HQ

I also accept a Laptop suggestion.
Thanks in advance!

  Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis in Structural Mechanics
Posted by: bridgeengineer - 04-18-2016, 08:36 PM - Forum: Finite Element Methods - No Replies

Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis in Structural Mechanics

Author(s)/Editor(s): Wilhelm Rust (auth.) | Size: 11 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2015 | pages: 367 | ISBN: ISBN-13: 978-3319133799


[Image: 54348704796736922319.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

This monograph describes the numerical analysis of non-linearities in structural mechanics, i.e. large rotations, large strain (geometric non-linearities), non-linear material behaviour, in particular elasto-plasticity as well as time-dependent behaviour, and contact. Based on that, the book treats stability problems and limit-load analyses, as well as non-linear equations of a large number of variables. Moreover, the author presents a wide range of problem sets and their solutions. The target audience primarily comprises advanced undergraduate and graduate students of mechanical and civil engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for practising engineers in industry.

  Stresses and Displacements for Shallow Foundations
Posted by: bridgeengineer - 04-18-2016, 08:22 PM - Forum: Geotechnical Engineering - No Replies

Stresses and Displacements for Shallow Foundations

Author(s)/Editor(s): D. Milović (Eds.) | Size: 38 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: Academic Press, Elsevier | Year: 1992 | pages: 626 | ISBN: ISBN-13: 978-0444883490


[Image: 60593289669560803514.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

This monograph presents the results of the theoretical analyses of stresses and displacements for shallow foundations subjected to various types of loads. In these analyses not only the classical models but more complex models of soils have been used, such as two-layer half-space, homogenous compressible layer of finite thickness, two-layer compressible layer of finite thickness, anisotropic compressible layer. Contact stresses, settlements, vertical stress distribution, bending moments and shear forces have been determined for foundations of any rigidity. Numerous values of the dimensionless coefficients "I" are tabulated, which can be of use in the solution of practical engineering problems.
