The Influence of Train Running Direction and Track Supports Position on the Behaviour of Transition Zones (2016)
Journal Article
Sañudo, R., Miranda, M., Markine, V., & delĺOlio, L. (2016). The Influence of Train Running Direction and Track Supports Position on the Behaviour of Transition Zones. Transportation Research Procedia, 18, 281-288. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trpro.2016.1

Different types of track infrastructure can be found along railway lines. Separation zones between these different types of structures are the source of a lot of problems. Transition zones on a railway line represent a gradual solution for the proble...

Influence of geotextile encasement on the behaviour of stone columns: Laboratory study (2016)
Journal Article
Miranda, M., Da Costa, A., Castro, J., & Sagaseta, C. (2017). Influence of geotextile encasement on the behaviour of stone columns: Laboratory study. Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 45(1), 14-22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geotexmem.2016.08.004

This paper presents a study of the influence of the geotextile encasement on the behaviour of soft soils improved with fully penetrating encased columns. This influence is analysed by means of measuring soil-column stress distribution, pore pressures...

Laboratory analysis of encased stone columns (2016)
Journal Article
Miranda, M., & Da Costa, A. (2016). Laboratory analysis of encased stone columns. Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 44(3), 269-277. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geotexmem.2015.12.001

Stone columns installed in extremely soft soils may significantly reduce the effectiveness of this treatment due to the insufficient lateral confinement provided by the soft soil. The encasement of columns with geotextiles is commonly used in these c... Read More about Laboratory analysis of encased stone columns.
