Scour reduction in sand beds against vertical jets by applying sheet-like countermeasures

TL;DR: The scour observed at the landside ground behind coastal protection facilities, such as seawalls and coastal dikes, due to tsunami overflows is the main reason for failures in such constructions.

Shear strength characteristics of two-layer geotextile reinforced with flowable fill

TL;DR: In this article , the peak and residual shear strength of a two-layer geotextile reinforced with a flowable fill was investigated, and the experimental results showed that the peak shear strengths of the reinforced gotextiles are larger than those of the non-reinforced ones.

SIMILITUDE FOR SHAKING TABLE TESTS ON SOIL-STRUCTURE-FLUID MODEL IN 1g GRAVITATIONAL FIELD

TL;DR: In this paper, a similitude is derived for the shaking table tests on saturated soil-structure-fluid model in 1 g gravitational field, where the assumption is made upon the constitutive law of soil; i.e., the stress-strain relation is determined irrespective of the confining pressures if appropriate scaling factors are introduced for the stress and the strain for taking the effect of confining pressure into account.

Damage statistics (Summary of the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake damage)

TL;DR: The 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake, which occurred on March 11, 2011, caused enormous damage, particularly to the strip of land along the Pacific Ocean from the Tokyo Region to the Kanto Region, due to seismic motion and the tsunami it triggered.
