Sentence examples for vertical settlement from inspiring English sources

A series of experiments are described involving the full-scale simulation of geogrid reinforcement for railway ballast, which allowed the key parameters influencing the reduction in vertical settlement (permanent deformation) under repeated loading to be studied.

Due to the hard ground foundation, the magnitudes of the vertical settlements were relatively low.

Particular attention was given to the lateral displacements, vertical settlements, total vertical pressures and tensile forces in the reinforcement.

Surface and subsurface settlement plates were installed in the embankment at different locations to measure vertical settlements.

A new kinematic hardening-critical state-state parameter constitutive model, the Memory Surface Hardening model, is implemented in a one-dimensional analysis to predict accumulated vertical settlements under drained lateral cyclic loading.
