Abstract:
Several aspects of the ground response to tunnel excavation in deep clay formations have been studied. Such strata may be only lightly overconsolidated and an unsupported tunnel could have a high stability ratio. Consequently, at large depths there may be construcz ion difficulties similar to those encountered in soft ground at shallow depths. Problems which may be encountered are squeezing ground, i.e. a continually increasing volume loss with time, and possible collapse after a 'stand-up' time. A range of parameters likely to influence the time dependent deformation behaviour at an unsupport

Abstract:
In this thesis, bio-nanocomposites made from two alternative biopolymers and montmorillonite (Mnt) clay have been investigated by molecular modelling. These biopolymers are xyloglucan (XG) and chitosan (CHS), both of which are abundant, renewable, and cost-effective. After being reinforced by Mnt clay nanoparticles, the polymer nanocomposites gains in multifunctionality and in the possibility to register unique combinations of properties, like mechanical, biodegradable, electrical, thermal and gas barrier properties. I apply molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study the interfacial mechanis

Abstract:
Children in their final years of primary schooling tend to emphasize the use of detail and the production of naturalistic representations, when modelling the human figure with clay. Children of this age rarely construct clay figures which are noted for their dynamic quality in terms of finish, proportion, or pose. This study examined the effect of using a "formative" modelling technique on the clay models made by 11 year old children. Involved in the study were two groups of 11 year old children. Both groups of children undertook a pre-test, a post-test, and a series of clay modelling activiti

Abstract:
The research described in this thesis focussed on the bond resistance of grouted soil nails in clay. Physical modelling took the form of large scale element tests in the laboratory of drilled and grouted nails in a stiff clay. Nails were installed under different boundary stresses; testing was conducted at different constant rates of pull-out and also under sustained load conditions. Observed behaviour was compared with that predicted by measurements of interface shear resistance obtained in a conventional shear box. Numerical modelling was carried out in an attempt to improve understanding of

Abstract:
Flow slides in sensitive clay deposits are common phenomena in Scandinavia and Canada. These flow slides have caused catastrophes to infrastructure and human life. The post-failure movements of such flow slides usually are characterized by their retrogression distances and or by the run-out distance of the slide debris. There are empirical and numerical methods used to assess the retrogression distance of slide debris. On contrary, convincing and accurate modeling techniques for run-out of sensitive clay slide debris, which is a very complex and challenging process, is yet to be developed Ke

The present work used ab initio density functional theory (DFT) to study two different physical phenomena crystallization fouling and clay-based polymer nanocomposites. In the first part, two foulant materials were studied including calcium carbonate, and calcium sulfate. The lattice energy and enthalpy of formations of each crystal system were predicted using DFT methods. The most stable forms of calcium carbonate foul ant, calcite and aragonite, were investigated. For calcium sulfate, both gypsum and anhydrite crystals were investigated. The thermodynamic solubility product of each crystal s

Abstract:
To relieve the axial stress induce rature high-pressure pipelines in deepwater, current design methods leave the pipe unburied and allow the formation of the lateral buckles along the pipeline in a controlled manner. However, this approach requires a better understanding of the interaction between the seabed soil and the partially embedded pipeline under both vertical and lateral movements. Research has been carried out to examine the two soil-pipe interaction mechanisms, vertical pipe penetration and lateral pipe movement, involved in the installation and operation of an on-bottom offshore pi
