    • Numerical modelling of pile foundation angular distortion 

      Sheil, Brian B.; McCabe, Bryan A. (Elsevier, 2015-05-16)
      In this paper, the PLAXIS 3-D Foundation finite element (FE) software package, in conjunction with the nonlinear Hardening Soil (HS) constitutive model, is employed in an extensive parametric study of the angular distortion ...

    • Repeated load testing of two schist and limestone aggregate materials used in unbound forest roads 

      Rodgers, M., Keaney, J., Healy, M.G. (2009)
      This study examined the behaviour of two completion aggregates that were placed on a silty sandy formation material and subjected to repeated loading in a large-scale testing rig. The completion aggregates were (i) a good ...

    • Shaft resistance of driven cast-in-situ piles in sand 

      Flynn, Kevin N.; McCabe, Bryan A. (NRC Research Press, 2015-06-25)
      Driven cast-in-situ (DCIS) piles are classified as a large displacement pile, despite sharing certain aspects of their construction with replacement pile types. However, there are relatively few case histories of load tests ...
