Decision support for slope construction and repair activities: an asset management building block
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The objective of this research was to develop a support system to facilitate appropriate decision making for construction, maintenance, and repair of earth slopes along transportation rights of way. The system was to be ...
Axial load transfer in large scale physical model drilled shaft foundations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Drilled shaft foundations are a widely implemented type of deep foundation used to support heavy loads from superstructures such as buildings and bridges. Uncertainties exist in the axial load transfer behavior of drilled ...
Load transfer in reticulated and non-reticulated micropiles from large-scale tests
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Using micropiles for slope stabilization is a proven technique but there are many uncertainties with how load is transferred from the soil to the structural elements. A large-scale model was constructed to test model slopes ...
Processing of synthetic aperture radar data as applied to the characterization of localized deformation features
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Satellite-based Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has been used by the geoscience community for many years to obtain ground deformation measurements of large-scale spatial features. Researchers have also ...
Load transfer in micropiles for slope stabilization from tests of large-scale physical models
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The objective of this work is to provide experimental data to improve prediction of limit loads for micropiles in slope stabilization applications. The experimental data were obtained from tests of 1-g model slopes 8 ft ...
