Abstract:

<em>Sand pile technology is a method of ground improvement extensively used throughout Bangladesh to strengthen poor ground to achieve sufficient bearing capacity and minimize the settlement of foundations. One of the key advantages of the sand pile system is that it can be implemented to all forms of soil observed in Bangladesh, from sandy to clayey soils, and it has consequently been utilized as a liquefaction preventive measure. But the performance of the sandpile relies not only on the density of the soil, the space between piles but also on the size of the grain of the sand employed. This

Abstract:

When erosion occurs, sandy beach cannot maintain the sufficient sand width and the foreshore slope becomes steeper by the frequent erosion effect. As a result, the beach is trapped in a vicious circle of becoming vulnerable by the incident waves. In order to repair or protect the erosive beach, beach nourishment can be used as a countermeasure while minimizing the environmental impacts. However, beach nourishment is not a permanent solution and requires periodic renourishment after several years. To alleviate such problem, minimizing the period of renourishment must be an economical alternativ

Abstract:

Abstract The supporting structure inside a coastal dike is often made of dredged non-uniform sand with good compaction properties. Due to the shortage of natural construction material for both coastal and river dikes and the surplus of different processed materials, new experiments were made with sand-ash mixtures and fine-grained dredged materials to replace both dike core and dike cover materials resulting in economical, environmentally friendly and sustainable dikes. Ash from EC Gdańsk and dredged sand from the Vistula river were mixed to form an engineering material used for dike construct

Beach nourishment along the Mediterranean coast of Israel represents a new approach to mitigate coastal erosion by adding suitable sand to threatened beaches. This ‘soft’ solution has become more environmentally and economically acceptable than traditional ‘hard’ solutions, such as seawalls, revetments, detached breakwaters and groins. Beach nourishment projects have been implemented on the Israeli coast north of Ashdod Port (2011), north of Ashkelon Marina (2015) and in the south of Haifa Bay (2016–2017). The performance of these projects was analyzed and compared with nourishment projects al

Abstract:

This study examines the one-dimensional stressstrain behaviour of sand at effective stresses as high as 50 MPa. Experiments were performed on 22 sands (approx. 150 tests) with different grain size, uniformity coefficient, angularity, density, grain mineralogy, and clay content. The results show that minor grain corner crushing starts at stresses of 28 MPa. The point of maximum curvature (yield point) in the porosity (n) versus logarithm of vertical effective stress (σ'v) curve defines the initiation of marked particle crushing. The stress at the yield point varies between 3 and 31 MPa depend

Abstract:

Tin tailing sand is one of the residues from tin extraction. Tailing sand for sampling was taken from Batu Gajah, which was one of the active locations in tin mining in Malaysia. The silica content of tailing sand from Batu Gajah is between 95.9 to 98.9%. This research is to determine the effect of grain size by the increasing of water content on the permeability number. Grain size is a major determinant of mould and core permeability and surface finish of the casting. In this research involved the process of conducting the mechanical sieve grading to identify the grain size for this research.

Abstract:

Grain size and grain distribution by size are dominant factors determining soil behaviour. The shape and position of a grain distribution curve contain implicit information about the propensity of sand boiling or piping at flood conditions. The author used 1040-grain distribution curves taken from 12 sand boil locations to study the relationship between sand boils, hydraulic soil failures and entropy. The results have justified the hypotheses and indicated some fairly important details for practical consideration. Calculating grain distribution entropy is not ?magic? with mathematics: it simpl

Abstract:

For the investigation of the grain size distribution of the material washed out from the piping, we used 20 samples originating from different places on the Danube and the Tisza rivers. The grading characteristics of these samples were investigated based on selected grain sizes and the uniformity of gradients. Based on the investigations it has become possible to identify which grain size fractions are likely to be washed out, and how to characterize those fractions. Based on the grain size distribution curves it has been made possible to define the boundaries of the zone susceptible to piping

Abstract:

In this study, the effect of grain size on the dynamics of local scour processes is discussed in the context of the erosion that takes place downstream from a submerged sluice gate. Four gradations of non-cohesive bed material were used to study the scour process for various tailwater depth and flow rate conditions. The sand gradations included three sizes of uniformly graded sand and a fourth size, which was obtained by mixing the three uniform sands in equal proportions by weight. A total of 36 tests was carried out, each for a period of 24 h. An equilibrium scour condition was not attained

Abstract:

Clay is the primary cause for resistivity reduction in most of the low resistivity pay cases. While dry clay acts as insulator, reaction with water made wet clay a good conductor. Clay conductivity is contributed by the exchangeable cation properties of the mineral. This reduces the actual resistivity of the formation, especially in the invaded zone. The effect is more severe if clay existed as dispersed type in the formation; which will also reduce other important petrophysical properties such as porosity and permeability. The study was conducted to observe the mechanism and reduction of form

Abstract:

The filtration of fecal coliform from a secondary clarifier effluent was investigated using direct rapid sand filters as tertiary wastewater treatment on a pilot scale. The effect of the flocculation dose, flow loading rate, and grain size on fecal coliform removal was determined. Direct rapid sand filters can remove 0.6–1.5 log-units of fecal coliform, depending on the loading rate and grain size distribution. Meanwhile, the flocculation dose has little effect on coliform removal, and increasing the loading rate and/or grain size decreases the bacteria removal efficiency. A model was then dev

The effects of grain size, hydraulic loading rate, batch residence time and diffuser design on the performance of the CAWST version 10 biosand filter was investigated. Two types of sand gradations were prepared – fine sand (ES = 0.20, UC = 2.3) and a coarse sand (ES = 0.25, UC = 2.9). The fine sand and coarse grains resulted in initial hydraulic loading rates of 0.3 m3/m2 min and 0.75 m3/m2 min, respectively. Flow restrictions were installed on 2 coarse grain filters such that their initial hydraulic loading rates were 0.3 m3/m2 min. For the range of grain size and flow rates investigated in t

This paper presents the results of Hardox Extreme steel wear rate testing using an abrasive mass of varying grain shapes. The tests were conducted by the ASTM G65 method using crushed and natural sand with a grain-size distribution of 0.05–2 mm, obtained from a gravel pit. The abrasive materials used in the tests differed in grain shape, while the particle-size distribution was similar. The test results show that the wear rate in crushed sand is four times higher than that in natural sand, which is attributable to the shape of grains and the geometry of their edges.
