1. Coupled numerical simulation of a tailings deposit by FEM
Abstract Researchers have found that a valuable alternative for predicting the mechanical behavior of landfill construction is numerical simulation based on the finite element method. The results of such a numerical simulation for a sandy tailings deposit from the iron mining coupling flow and deformation are presented herein. This study investigates the inf

2. Experimental study on granite and the determination of its true strain-rate effect
To accurately determine the true strain-rate effect of granite in split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) tests, systematic experimental studies from quasi-static to dynamic loading on the same batch of granite samples is required. Therefore, firstly, splitting, uniaxial and triaxial compression tests were used to study the mechanical response of granite under d

3. Resistência de um solo não saturado a partir de ensaios com teor de umidade constante (CW) / Shear strength of an unsaturated soil from constant water content tests
In many parts of the world, geotechnical engineers frequently deal with unsaturated soils, and the performance of constructions on such soils depends on their mechanical characteristics, and among them, the shear strength. The unsaturated soil shear strength can be experimentally determined by using techniques which allow soil suction control or measurement

4. Study for use the wastes of the paper manufacture in the road construction / Estudo para a utilização de resíduo da fabricação de papel na construção rodoviária
The paper and pulp industry represent one of the most expressive industrial sector around the world, being of great importance to the world economy. In South America, because of the wide forest resources, Brazil and Chile are the largest pulp-producing. Brazil produces around 6 million tons of pulp per year, among which 98% of the pulp are produced by the bl

5. Evaluation of the mechanic behavior of fiber reinforcement in a fine sandy lateritic soil applies in pavement layers / Avaliação do comportamento mecânico de um solo arenoso fino laterítico reforçado com fibras para uso em pavimentação
The propose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the randomly distributed fiber reinforcement in the compression and tension resistances, deformability and resilient modulus of a fine sandy lateritic soil (FSLS) for base layer of pavements. Glass fibers and polypropylene fibers were studied. The first was added in contents of 0,5%, 1,0% and 1,5% with l

6. Shear strength of an unsaturated soil with direct measurement of suction / Resistência ao cisalhamento de um solo não saturado com medida direta de sucção
The purpose this study was to measure the suction with high capacity tensiometer (HCT), placed at the bottom of the sample, during shear strength tests on a compacted soil. Three kinds of shear strength tests were performed on the sample in different conditions of saturation: triaxial consolidated drained in saturated condition, triaxial consolidated undrain

7. CARACTERÍSTICAS DE COMPRESSIBILIDADE DE UMA ARGILA MOLE DA ZONA INDUSTRIAL DE SANTA CRUZ, RIO DE JANEIRO / COMPRESSIBILITY CHARACTERISTICS OF A SOFT CLAY FROM THE SANTA CRUZ INDUSTRIAL ZONE, RIO DE JANEIRO
A large research work comprising extensive field and laboratory investigations on a soft clay deposit located in the Industrial Zone of Santa Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, is being developed at PUC-Rio since 2005. Occurrences of settlement of structures built in this region have been reported since the end of the decade of 1970. This work presents results of lab

8. Evaluation of the use of the marginal soils in reinforced soil structures / Avaliação do uso de solos não convencionais em estruturas de solo reforçado
As estruturas de solo reforçado tornaram-se uma alternativa eficiente para a construção de aterros e muros de contenção. No entanto, o seu uso é limitado pelas especificações técnicas, que recomendam apenas materiais granulares, por apresentarem alta resistência e capacidade de livre drenagem. Todavia, nem sempre se dispõem deste tipo de material

9. Estudo do comportamento resiliente de três solos da região de Campo Grande-MS e de relações entre o módulo de resiliência e resultados de ensaios de compressão simples / Study of the resilient behavior of three soils from Campo Grande-MS and analysis of relations among resilient modulus and results of compressive strenght tests
The resilient modulus knowledge (MR) is fundamental for pavement design, once it is necessary for stresses, strains and deflections calculus in its layers and subgrade, as well as, the analysis of system performance. Although field tests may be used to determine the dynamic behavior of soils, most of researchers favor laboratory tests, based on the fact that

10. AVALIAÇÃO DO COMPORTAMENTO GEOMECÂNICO E DE ALTERABILIDADE DE ENROCAMENTOS / EVALUATION OF THE GEOMECHANICAL BEHAVIOR AND THE ALTERABILITY OF ROCKFILLS
This work presents an experimental study of the behavior of rockfills, focusing on the changes caused by rock alteration on the physical and mechanical characteristics, such as, lithology, gradation, deformability and strength. The basalt rockfill used in the construction of Marimbondo dam has been considered, with about 25 years of in situ alteration, toget

During the last years, neural networks applications have been disseminated in many knowledge areas, including civil engineering. In the middle 90`s, a research work had been started in Brazil, in order to investigate the efficiency of neural networks in the analysis of soil behavior and problems involving geotechnical engineering. This thesis is the result o

12. Mechanical behavior of urban solid waste / Comportamento mecânico de resíduos sólidos urbanos
This thesis deals with the mechanical behavior of urban solid waste from Bandeirantes sanitary landfill (São Paulo, Brazil). Field and laboratory tests, as well as data from field instrumentation (settlement) were obtained and used in the analysis. Results of in situ tests such as standard penetration test (SPT), cone penetration test (CPT), infiltration te
