Flow tests have been conducted on expansive cement grout plugs with diameters of 160 mm and 200 mm, and length-to-diameter ratios of one, in boreholes in basalt blocks and in steel pipes. Two types of flow tests have been performed: pseudo-constant head tests and transient pulse tests. Hydration temperatures of cement grout plugs have been monitored in steel pipes with inside diameters ranging from 110 mm to 200 mm. During flow tests, basalt blocks have fractured, presumably due to water injection pressure, cement grout expansion, packer pressure and temperature differences. Falling head tests performed on some block fractures indicate a complex interaction between a cement grout borehole plug and the rock, as determined from the hydraulic conductivities of fractures intersecting plugged boreholes.

Penetration rate prediction for diamond bit drilling by adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system and multiple regressions
BASARIR, HAKAN; Tutluoğlu, Levend; Karpuz, Celal (Elsevier BV, 2014-05-01)
In many mining, civil, and petroleum engineering applications diamond bit drilling is widely used due to high penetration rate, core recovery and its ability to drill with less deviation. Recently, many research have been conducted to estimate the penetration rate of diamond drilling which can be considered as one of the most important parameters in project planning and cost estimation of the operation.
Geotechnical rock-mass evaluation of the Anamur dam site, Turkey
Ozsan, A; Karpuz, Celal (Elsevier BV, 1996-03-01)
This paper describes a feasibility-level geotechnical evaluation carried out at Anamur dam site, in terms of stability analysis of dam foundation, excavation slopes and a diversion tunnel. The proposed Anamur dam will be built across the Anamur river on the Alanya metamorphic series which consists of phyllite, schist and slate units at the site. Geotechnical investigations included drilling for core, pumping tests, sampling for laboratory testing, and a detailed discontinuity survey.
Analytical and experimental assessment of mechanical borehole sealing performance in rock
Akgün, Haluk (Elsevier BV, 1997-09-05)
This paper examines the bond strength of cement grout plugs cast in rock. The bond strength has been determined through push-out testing in which an axial load is applied to cement grout plugs emplaced in boreholes in welded tuff cylinders. The push-out tests have been performed as a function of borehole (plug) radius and plug length. The use of four different borehole radii and three different plug length-to-radius ratios enables the evaluation of size effects. A power law obeying strength decrease with in...
Residual Shear Strength Measured by Laboratory Tests and Mobilized in Landslides
Mesri, Gholamreza; Huvaj Sarıhan, Nejan (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2012-05-01)
Drained residual shear strength measured by multiple reversal direct shear or ring shear tests has been successfully used for over four decades for stability analyses of reactivated landslides in stiff clays and clay shales; A body of literature has accumulated in recent decades, claiming that "healing" or "strength regain" is realized in time on preexisting slip surfaces already at residual condition. In other words, the shear stress required to reactivate a landslide is claimed to be larger than the drain...
CPT-Based Probabilistic Soil Characterization and Classification
Çetin, Kemal Önder (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2009-01-01)
Due to lack of soil sampling during conventional cone penetration testing, it is necessary to characterize and classify soils based on tip and sleeve friction values as well as pore pressure induced during and after penetration. Currently available semiempirical methods exhibit a significant variability in the estimation of soil type. Within the confines of this paper it is attempted to present a new probabilistic cone penetration test (CPT)-based soil characterization and classification methodology, which ...
