Quick-clay landslide mitigation using potassium chloride
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:234, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Highly sensitive postglacial marine clays, termed quick clays, represent a risk for large retrogressive or progressive landslides such as the well-documented Rissa quick-clay landslide in 1978. Landslide susceptibility ... -
Radial Consolidation of Pore Pressure Induced by Pile Driving
(Master thesis, 2015)Pile installation is recognized to significantly disturb the surrounding clay and cause changes in total and effective stresses around the pile. In this thesis, a numerical model is used to simulate pile installation and ... -
Radial consolidation of pore pressure induced by pile installation
(Master thesis, 2016)The soil surrounding a driven pile is subjected to varying degrees of soil disturbance during the installation, and experiences a complex combination of loading, unloading and reloading in the course of the life cycle of ... -
