A comparison of friction piles bearing capacity based on theoretical and empirical mathematical models
(Master thesis, 2012)This thesis consists of 8 chapters and each chapter is described as follows:Chapter 2: Presents the different types of piles which exist today and their classification.Chapter 3: Presents the different soil parameters we ... -
A Parametric Study of Creep on EPS Geofoam Embankments
(Master thesis, 2012)SummaryThis study is aimed at the parametric study of EPS as a light weight fill embankment in road construction. Both short and long term deformation characteristics as well as mechanical parameters of EPS are discussed ... -
Analysis and Modelling of induced pore pressures due to pile driving.
(Master thesis, 2012)Pile driving affects significantly the surrounding soil and modifies its properties. One of the consequences is that pore pressure develops and provokes a reduction of the undrained shear strength.The excess pore pressure ... -
Assessment of Rheological Models for Run-out Distance Modeling of Sensitive Clay Slides, Focusing on Voellmy Rheology
(Master thesis, 2014)Sensitive clay landslides especially that of quick clay are the major natural hazards in Canada and Scandinavian countries. Fair estimation of post-failure movement (retrogression and run-out distances) is very important ... -
Development of P-Y Curves for Monopiles in Clay using Finite Element Model Plaxis 3D Foundation
(Master thesis, 2012)The monopiles with typical diameters of 4-6m are mostly used as foundations for the offshore wind turbine structures to resist the vertical and horizontal loads. The response of the laterally loaded pile depends upon the ... -
Dynamic behavior of blow out preventer (BOP)
(Master thesis, 2012)Abstract:Nowadays, the offshore is very extensive and of great economic value for gross development. Typically all kinds of offshore structure will experience storm loading and need to consider the influence of cyclic ... -
Effekt av vibrasjoner generert ved pelearbeider: komprimeringseffekt i sand/grus
(Master thesis, 2012)Dette prosjektet tar for seg effekter av peleramming i sand. Fokuset i oppgaven er effektene av vibrasjonene og eventuelle komprimeringer de medfører. Studiet har hatt størst fokus på selve vibrasjonene og i noe mindre ... -
Laboratoriestudie av saltdiffusjon i kvikkleire
(Master thesis, 2012)Denne masteroppgaven er en laboratoriestudie på hvordan tilsetning av salt vil påvirke geotekniske og geokjemiske egenskaper i norske marine leirer (kvikkleirer) fra forskjellige steder. Endringen i leirenes oppførsel vil ... -
Load Distribution, from a Bridge Abutment, in a Layered EPS Embankment with different Compressive Strength: Lastspredning, under belastning av et brolandkar, i en lagdelt EPS fylling med ulik trykkstyrke
(Master thesis, 2012)The load distribution in expanded polystyrene (EPS) embankments is complex. Three different case studies were selected in order to find a simple way of estimating the stresses by depth. Three distribution theories that ... -
MATLAB FEM Code - From Elasticity to Plasticity
(Master thesis, 2012)A MATLAB Finite Element code for plane strain analysis of footings on an Elasto-plastic material using the Mohr Coulomb failure criteria has been developed. The first step is to develop codes for mesh generation and Gaussian ... -
The Effect of Blasting in Layered Soils, Example from Finneidfjord, Norway
(Master thesis, 2012)A case study on the role of blast vibration on the 1996 Finneidfjord landslide was carried out. This catastrophic landslide which claimed four lives has been under investigation during the past decade. The study area has ... -
Vurdering av sikringstiltak mot snøskred
(Master thesis, 2012)Mange norske veger er svært utsatt for snøskred, og Statens vegvesen jobber kontinuerlig med å utvikle effektive tiltak for sikring mot snøskred. Denne oppgaven har som hensikt å vurdere sikringstiltak sikringseffekt mot ...
