  • Dynamic behavior of silty soils

    Creator:
    Sunitsakul, Jutha
    Abstract:
    The cyclic resistance of predominantly fine-grained soils has received considerable attention following ground and foundation failures at sites underlain by silt-rich soils during recent earthquakes. In several cases substantial ground deformation and reduced bearing capacity of silt soils has been attributed to excess pore pressure generation during cyclic loading. These...

  • Uranium and technetium bio-immobilization in intermediate-scale physical models of an in situ bio-barrier

    Creator:
    Michalsen, Mandy M.
    Abstract:
    Metal and hydrogen ion acidity and extreme nitrate concentrations typical of Department of Energy (DOE) legacy waste sites pose formidable challenges to successful implementation of in situ bio-immobilization. Intermediate-scale (~ 2.5 m), flow through models of an in situ bio-barrier were constructed to investigate U and Tc removal from groundwater...

  • Wood materials and shearwalls of older light-frame residential structures

    Creator:
    Carroll, Cameron T.
    Abstract:
    Light-frame construction practices and materials have changed greatly over the past 100 years. Contemporary research has focused on modern construction; thus, we know a great deal about the behavior of modern lightframe buildings under lateral forces. However, there are many light-frame buildings that were built prior to the introduction of...
