Abstract:

Recently, the use of deep foundations has increased as a result of the expansion in the construction of high-rise buildings, train tracks, and port berths. As a result of this expansion, it was necessary to use deep foundations that have low cost, high bearing loads, low settlement, and construction time, and such foundations are subjected to different...

Abstract:

The Shwebontha prospect area is situated in the Central Volcanic Belt, central Myanmar, where the well-known Sagaing Fault serves as its eastern boundary. This study aims to document key the mineralogy, host rock geochemistry and ore mineralizing fluids. The mineralization, hosted by Upper Oligocene to Middle Miocene rhyolites, displays a strong lithological control. Mineralization is characterized by gold-bearing... More

Abstract:

Soft clay soils cannot usually support large lateral loads, so clay soils must be improved to increase lateral resistance. The jet grouting method is one of the methods used to improve weak soils. In this paper, a series of 3D finite element studies were conducted using Plaxis 3D software to investigate the lateral behavior of piled rafts... More

Abstract:

Most researchers attribute the appearance of skeletons to some arbitrarily chosen factors. Many aspects of the phenomenon (the diversity of the composition of the remains, the mass nature of the phenomenon, geological immediacy, the role of geological and biotic factors, etc.) remain unexplained in this case. A comprehensive analysis of facts from different branches of science (lithology, tectonics,... More

Abstract:

The Rb-Sr whole-rock isochron, age 1636 ± 66 Ma of Mirgarani granite, is the one of the oldest granite dated in the northwestern part of the Chhotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex (CGGC). The initial Sr ratio is 0.715 ± 0.012 (MSWD = 0.11), showing an S-type affinity. The Mirgarani granite has intruded the migmatite complex of the Dudhi... More
