Suction caissons are widely used foundations in offshore engineering.

Abstract:
Design implications of suction installation of bucket foundations are still not well understood. During suction installation, applied suction under the bucket lid results in seepage flow through the surrounding sand. Seepage flow plays a pivotal role in reducing the penetration resistance, allowing for full penetration despite the initial large soil resistance. However, loosening of the inside soil plug might be problematic when the soil approaches its failure stage, due to soil piping or extensive soil heave inside the bucket foundation.

The seepage caused by heavy rainfall and storm runoff is not a static phenomenon. On the contrary, it is a dynamic process known as unsaturated transient seepage.

Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity is the primary soil parameter required when performing seepage analyses for unsaturated–saturated soil systems.

In this study, a new wetting front advancing method was developed for measuring unsaturated hydraulic conductivity.

However, the actual condition of some soils has been found to be inhomogeneous, with unsaturated seepage. In this paper, an analytical method is applied to estimate the safety factor when the supporting force at the tunnel face is zero under steady unsaturated seepage and inhomogeneous conditions. This method combines kinematic limit analysis techniques with strength reduction techniques; an efficient stress formulation utilizing suction stress is employed to determine the ap

Abstract:
Expansive soil is a kind of clay soil that expands rapidly after being immersed in water and shrinks significantly after losing water. The expansive soil slopes exposed to the atmosphere are in the process of continuous dry and wet cycles and are extremely unstable under the conditions of rainfall. Based on saturated-unsaturated seepage theory, the unsaturated seepage process and humidification process of the expansive soil slope under rainfall were simulated, and a related FORTRAN language program was developed. The effects of matrix suction changes, seepage softening, and moistening expansio

Abstract:
This study aimed to reveal the impact of the severe drying-wetting process on the safety and stability of high-altitude dumps. Numerical calculations were conducted for the open mining dump of limestone mines for cement in high-altitude mining areas. The distribution law equation of the matric suction and the shear strength equation were imported for unsaturated soil based on the unsaturated-saturated seepage theory. Therefore, the evolution characteristics of the unsaturated-saturated seepage field and the stability of the dump were studied under severe drying-wetting. The results indicated t

This paper presents an attempt to numerical modelling of water seepage through the connection of two concrete pipes, commonly used in the past in construction of sanitary and stormwater sewerage systems, sealed by three types of different cement-based mortars. The 2D numerical calculations were made by means of the commercial modelling software FEFLOW, WASY-DHI, especially popular in soil and environmental science. The required input data for the developed numerical model, including saturated hydraulic conductivity and retention characteristics of tested mortars, were obtained during the condu

Abstract:
Picher irrigation is a traditional technique used to supply water to plants under drought conditions in arid regions. Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate water seepage rates from ceramic pots/pitchers, made from baked clay-sand local materials, under various environmental and hydraulic conditions. Seven ceramic pots (simulating ceramic emitters) with various dimensions were used in the experiments. Handmade ceramic pots of about 1 L in volume and 26 cm tall were used in the experiment. The hydraulic conductivities of the pots were measured using falling head method and the values

Modelling the flow of brine through potash tailings requires that the saturated and unsaturated hydraulic properties of the tailings be established; in particular, the relationships of fluid content and permeability to matric suction are required. The in situ and laboratory testing techniques used for determining these properties are described and the results are presented.Numerical modelling techniques for the flow of brine through potash tailings are demonstrated by performing a computer simulation of an open-trench infiltration test conducted at the Lanigan Division Potash Mine in Saskatche

Abstract:
A number of potential offshore wind turbines in China will be constructed in sandy silt seabeds, and the mono-caisson foundation is an important choice for these offshore wind turbines. A program of large-scale model tests on suction installation and lateral loading of caisson foundations in saturated silt were carried out in a large soil tank at Zhejiang University. Test results of installation resistance during suction installation show that the seepage effect is limited in silt, and the suction required to penetrate the caisson can be well predicted based on the sleeve friction and cone res

Several viewpoints of vacuum preloading mechanism were analyzed. Action process of vacuum preloading was compartmentalized three phases. They were seepage consolidation in shallow soil and “surcharge” effect in deep soil by vacuum suction, consolidation stabilization in the shallow soil and transformation of “surcharge” to “negative pressure” in deep soil, seepage consolidation in deep soil under “negative pressure” and to balance. Action mechanism root of vacuum preloading was not negative pressure difference solely, which was produced by seepage field. The root was “positive pressure” and “n

To simulate water flow in unsaturated porous media, analytical and numerical solutions of infiltration models have revealed the hydraulic and mechanical properties of partially saturated soil, such as the soil-water retention curve, shear strength, and permeability functions. Seepage, which is related to both the rainfall intensity and the saturated soil permeability, is a problem for partially saturated soils.

Abstract:
The ionic rare earth (RE) ore body undergoes particle transport and pore structure change during the leaching process, resulting in "uneven percolation, preferential channel, leaching blind area," and other problems, leading to structural changes in the ore body, low leaching efficiency, and waste of resources. The unsaturated infiltration process is also the key stage that causes these problems. The initial pore structure evolution of the ore body plays a decisive role in the permeability coefficient of the ore body, and the direct influencing factor of the permeability coefficient is the dis

In order to quantify the damage due to climatic loading, estimation of moisture, and suction variation in pavement subgrade is of paramount importance. The objective of the current study is to investigate the moisture and suction variation in response to precipitation events with the aid of numerical modeling in the unsaturated pavement subgrade.

Rainfall is one of the main factors that influence the stability of slope. Rainfall infiltration will cause soil saturation changing and further influence pore water pressure and medium permeability coefficient. Based on porous media saturation-unsaturated flow theory, the slope transient seepage field is simulated under the conditions of rainfall infiltration. It is shown that change of pore water pressure in slope soil lag behind relative changes in rainfall conditions.
