Geotextile tubes have offered a cost-effective and convenient solution for the treatment of dredged slurry in recent years. Despite their benefits, the dewatering process of this method remains cumbersome and time-consuming. The incorporation of floccula...

Coastal dune restoration projects are increasingly seen as a means of protecting the coast against storms, especially with the use of natural (plants), artificial (geotextile tube cores) and hybrid (plants and geotextile tube) elements. As geotextile tub...

The presence of underground voids within a failure zone usually results in a reduction in the bearing capacity of footings. This paper presents results for the ultimate bearing capacity ratio, qu/?B, of a strip footing on top of a sand layer overlying a ...

During the cofferdam construction of the toe reinforcement project at the Qiantang River Estuary, the scouring of the riverbed at the groin head often led to the collapse of geotube groins due to strong tidal currents. Based on field experience, employin...
