Abstract In recent years, Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) have played an increasingly important role in the construction and monitoring of underwater pile foundations. However, due to the open frame structure of such vehicles, a
gap of knowledge still exists with regard to their hydrodynamic behavior. In this study, the hydrodynamic stability
of such vehicles is investigated numerically by means of a multiple reference frame method. The hydrodynamic
characteristics of the ROV when it moves horizontally and upward in the vertical plane are examined. It is found
that there is interference between the horizontal and vertical thrusters of the ROV. There is… More >

Abstract Sixteen groups of comprehensive tests have been conducted to investigate the modifications in the physical properties of a weak expansive soil due to the addition of a cement jute fiber. The tests have been conducted to analyze
the liquid plastic limit, the particle distribution and the free expansion rate. The results show that: (1) With an
increase in the cement-jute fiber content, the free expansion rate of the modified expansive soil gradually
decreases, however, such a rate rebounds when the fiber content exceeds 0.5% and the cement content exceeds
6%. (2) With an increase in the cement percentage, the particle… More >
