  1. 1. Frequency Optimization of Vibratory Rollers and Plates for Compaction of Granular Soil

    Author : Carl Wersäll; Stefan Larsson; Michael Mooney; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; compaction; vibratory roller; frequency; resonance; vibration; sand; gravel; soil dynamics; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : Vibratory rollers are commonly used for compaction of embankments and landfills. This task is time consuming and constitutes a significant part of most large construction and infrastructure projects. By improving the compaction efficiency, the construction industry would reduce costs and environmental impact. READ MORE

  2. 2. Rockfill Pavements on Soft Subsoil - Construction and Compaction

    Author : Bo Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Analytical or mechanistic design models are today available, which all require predictable material properties of the materials involved. However, the efficiency of compaction of pavements on soft subsoil is often questioned, since such pavements mostly show lower pavement quality and poorer performance, it seems like the full potential of the fill material not is utilised.

  3. 3. Influence of Frequency on Compaction of Sand in Small-Scale Tests

    Author : Carl Wersäll; Stefan Larsson; Jörgen Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Vibratory rollers are commonly used for compaction of embankments and landfills. In a majority of large construction projects, this activity constitutes a significant part of the project cost and causes considerable emissions. Thus, by improving the compaction efficiency, the construction industry would reduce costs and environmental impact. READ MORE
