Sentence examples for rigid bedrock from inspiring English sources

If a well dumped its wastewater into rigid bedrock, earthquakes occurred within a close distance.

The present study investigates the effects of soil structure interaction (SSI) on the response of base-isolated multistory buildings founded on an elastic soil layer overlying rigid bedrock and subjected to a harmonic ground motion.

This paper attempts to assess the influence of dynamic soil structure interaction (SSI) on the behavior of seismically isolated cable-stayed bridge supported on a rigidly capped vertical pile groups, which pass through moderately deep, layered soil overlying rigid bedrock.

Those associated with rigid bedrock systems are normally dominated by conduits and linked cavities27, while soft bedrock systems are dominated by anastomosing broad flat channels, macroporous water sheets at the ice-bed interface and water within the till1,28,29,30.

The objective of this study is to assess the effects of soil structure interaction on the response of seismically isolated bridge piers founded on a shallow soil stratum overlying a rigid bedrock and to develop a method that considers soil structure interaction and can be easily applied to the preliminary design of bridges.

Consider a rigid cantilever retaining wall with bilinear backface constructed on a rigid bedrock supporting a dry, horizontal and cohesionless backfill as shown in Fig. 2.

Meltwaters played a key role in lubricating ice sheet motion (and thus areal abrasion) across the inner portions of the ice sheet where it slid over rigid crystalline bedrock of the Canadian Shield.

The mathematical model is two-dimensional, and the interior of the ground is modelled as an elastic layer overlying a rigid foundation (or "bedrock").

And the theory was frequently lumped in with identity politics, despite its bedrock claim that rigid identities like gayness don't exist.

Frequency independent expressions are used to determine the stiffness and damping coefficients for the rigid surface foundation on the soil-stratum underlined by bedrock at shallow depth.
