This document presents the results from discrete element method (DEM) simulations of interface shear compared to previously published data from similar physical experiments. Rough shafts emplaced in granular assemblies are subjected to monotonic and cyclic loading and the results evaluated. The granular‐continuum interface behavior for different anchor surface roughnesses is...
Soil‐structure interaction has been an area of active research since the 19th century and has evolved significantly over the past 150 years (Kausel, 2010). Previous soil‐structure interaction studies have been based on numerical simulations (e.g., Costantino et al. 1976; Jensen et al. 1999; Jensen, Edil et al. 2001; Jensen, Plesha...

On the Oregon coast, however, the issue of water supply has become paramount, especially given the need to restore instream flows in order to restore coastal salmon runs and meet water quality standards. With the ebb and flow of population and the economic growth of Oregon coastal communities, three hypotheses...
Series of financial crises arose in Taiwan since 1997 Asia financial crises, and it starts happened to the community financial institutions since then. In general, damages and impacts to the community and industry are always far more serious than that caused economy by the bankruptcy of a company. Thus, a...
A number of different systems have been used to estimate boater use over the 1990-2001 period, making it difficult to trace the source of discrepancies in the final estimates. For example, the boater passes have changed over the years.
From 1990-92, boaters would simply check off the river segments they...
