Chemical Influence of Pore Pressure on Brine Flow in Clay-Rich Material

Roman Makhnenko, Etienne André Cassini, Danila Mylnikov

Hydromechanical properties of shales are complex due to the involved ma-terial structure, with the solid matrix being mainly formed by swelling clays and porosity dominated by nanometer scale tortuous voids with large aspect ratios. Intrinsic permeability ...

Kinetics, Mechanics and Micro-structure of Bio-cemented Soils

Dimitrios Terzis

The quest for novel, performant materials and methods in the engineering practice is driven nowadays by the need to offer solutions to complex problems by coupling technical innovation with environmental responsibility. Such problems emerge in the geo-tech ...

Centrifuge modeling of mitigation-soil-foundation-structure interaction on liquefiable ground

Significant progress has been made in recent years toward a better understanding of the liquefaction phenomena. Yet, the combined effects of excess pore pressure generation, permanent soil deformation, and ground shaking, with and without mitigation, on th ...

Geotechnical analysis of energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study proposes an analysis of the multiphysical phenomena and mechanisms governing the thermo-mechanical behaviour of energy piles. The analysis is based on the results of a series of full-scale in-situ tests, laboratory experiments and numerical anal ...

Parametric study of soil abrasivity for predicting wear issue in TBM tunneling projects

Jian Zhao

The lack of reliable methods for evaluation of soil abrasivity and revealing the effects of different parameters on wear rate are nowadays considered as a deficiency in geotechnical investigation during feasibility study, design and construction phases of ...

Analysis of TBM tunnelling performance in faulted and highly fractured rocks

Erika Paltrinieri

The thesis focuses on the study of the performance of TBMs in highly jointed and faulted rocks. Despite the great production rates recorded in favourable ground conditions, the TBM advance can be significantly slowed down in limiting geological situations ...
