<p>Pile used as the foundation in many cases may be subjected to inclined compressive loading condition. In such cases, overall behaviors of the piles are estimated from available conventional theoretical approaches. As there are limited experimental studies ...

<p>An experimental testing program was undertaken to investigate failure mechanisms induced by the active movement of a deep rectangular trapdoor underlying a granular soil. Reduced-scale models were tested under normal gravity as well as under an increased ...

Scale factors for centrifuge modelling have been traditionally defined using dimensional analysis concepts. This is the case for example of centrifuge modelling of unsaturated water flow. However, scale factors governing suction, discharge velocity and time ...
