A list of puns related to "Soil Mechanics"
That is all.
It feels out of tune with the rest of the game mechanics.
Iβve had to take time out to travel to a different planet and spend 45 minutes dropping and picking up buildings to increase my stock of soil enough to cover a small amount of ocean.
That just doesnβt feel like a mechanic thatβs intended. I KNOW you want me to use foundations, but Iβm a gamer, Iβll use the easiest and most efficient mechanic to do mundane things quickly.
Maybe a subterranean drill or a space dust collector in orbit may be more in tune?
Edit:- the Point is that itβs not an automated process like Everything else in the game, some of you are being really weird about defending the gathering process and I can only assume you havenβt reached the final stages of the game yet where itβs just plain inconvenient.
Is a bachelors in Soil Science and then a masters in Soil Mechanics be a good decision? What is the demand? Should I migrate to Environmental Engineering instead?
Exactly as above. It would be extremely useful, and could help when you have trouble finding enough material. Also, in the case of creating soil piles, you could help players that have trouble with collecting enough from around the planet
I used to think courses such as soil mechanics, rock mechanics, geotechnics etc. were not included in geology major curriculum in most of the top colleges worldwide unlike the colleges in my country. I used to think such schools have separated geotechnical engineering from geology (or geoscience or earth and planetary sciences), so such courses have no place in geology but they are in fact closer to civil engineering. To be honest, during my undergraduate years, I despised those courses because I believe geology is simply a natural science which has research areas with their own philosophy, e.g. igneous and metamorphic petrology, geochemistry, paleontology, tectonics, stratigraphy, ore mineralogy, crystallography and so on. I have always thought such courses should be replaced by courses such as meteorites, planetary geology etc. Nevertheless, I checked out CalTechβs course catalog yesterday and saw that soil mechanics is part of geology curriculum, if Iβm not wrong, which has made me think about my view.
Do top colleges worldwide, i.e. ranking top 100-200 on the basis of geology education, have those courses in their curriculum? Is there a way to figure out which schools have them and which donβt?
I found a Cheat Engine script but it doesn't appear to be working on the current version.
Are there any known work arounds? Either disabling the mechanic or by giving myself soil?
I love this game but really dislike this mechanic.
In Kill Bill Vol. 2, Beatrix Kiddo uses lessons from Pai Mei to break out of her coffin by punching it while buried in the ground. While stating your assumptions, is this physically possible?
You may disagree with my assumptions, but here are some I have to start:
The soil is loosely packed and dry.
The initial hole is 10 cm. The coffin is made of pine.
Questions to ponder:
Is it possible to break pine in this situation from only 7 or 8 cm away?
Do you anticipate the hole to get larger than her hand upon the wood breaking? Does the soil switching from static to dynamically flowing assist in breaking the wood? Or does she need to continually punch to break the wood further?
Will she run out of oxygen before completing the task? Will air within the soil be enough to assist her?
Once the hole is large enough, is it possible to dig ones self out of 6' of loose poured soil from below? Are the forces required within the realm of humanly possible?
Edit: of course mythbusters did this back in the day... https://mythresults.com/coffin-punch
Edit 2:. Not 100% that mythbusters got it all right.
Uma Thurman is 5'11". She was tight lengthwise in the coffin. Assuming width is 2' and height is 1.5', the volume is approximately 27 cu. ft. Say she is 9" thick on average and 18" wide, she is 6.75 cu. ft.
So she has around 21 cu. ft of air. According to engineering toolbox a calm human uses 0.5 liters of air a breath, giving her nearly 1200 breaths. If calm, that is over an hour of breathing before she is down to 16.5% oxygen (100% exhaled once).
I think she has enough time to get it done, assuming she is able to break through. Maybe there is a weak point in the wood?

hello im stuck with these questions i dont know what formula to use i hope u guys can help me :((( thanks owo cant understand better bcoz of online class
do you have books/references about soils science soil science especially soil physics/soil mechanics?? would really appreciate if you have pdfs/ebooks that you could share with me, thank you
I am planning on taking the Civil PE exam with the Geotechnical Depth in April 2021. Looking for the best recommended soil mechanics and/or foundations textbooks to use for studying. My soil mechanics class in school was a "blended-learning" type of class where our teacher did not use a book (dumb); and I did not take the Foundations course offered, as I had a different focus in school. I already have a PE user manual guide and 2 practice tests (one NCEES, one other). My boss also has several (dated) textbooks that he said I could use, however, I would like to have my own so that I may mark it up and also have it for future reference. Any recommendations? Thank you!!
My post-wildfire debris flow research has taken me deep into the unfamiliar world of unsaturated soil mechanics. Everything I have found is related to civil engineering and/or agriculture/contaminate transport in the vadose zone. I just need to get a solid grasp on the Van Genuchten parameters and be able to intelligently explain how n and alpha are perturbed by fires, and how that changes Ksat, sorptivity, and subsequent initiation of runoff and sediment entrainment. I know itβs a shot in the dark, but maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I have tons of field and lab data showing the magnitude of the perturbations, but I donβt know enough to explain what that actually means in terms of changes in physical soil response to rainfall.
Hi guys I was wondering if any of you know any online resource such a open course or a YouTube playlist that could help me to study and understand theory on soil mechanics, I'm taking that class this semester and I would like to have a better understanding of it.
In order to understand soil quality, one has first to have a firm grip on how performance works.
Each worker contributes 100 points basic performance. This is then increased or decreased based on the Morale of the worker. Not having the required specialization decreases this amount by 50 points.
A farm requires 6 workers, and all yield numbers are based on that.Having 6 totally average workers with the required specialization result in 600 performance points. This is then divided by the number of required workers to reach 100 points. This is the "Building Performance" of the farm.
If you had a theoretical worker that performed at 900 performance, then that worker working alone would generate a Building Performance of 150. However, that is not achievable in practice. A more realistic scenario is having 6 workers that have top Morale each, resulting in around 150 performance, and then having some bonus that adds another 10 or 20 points on top of it, resulting in a combined Work Performance of around 1000.
After the Work Performance has been calculated and thus Building Performance is available, if the current shift is working on a Heavy Workload, then the Build Performance is boosted another 20 points. If you got a single guy with a Work Performance of 55, after dividing by 5 (yes 5, not 6. I don't know whey they coded that way, I assume it's an oversight), we get a Building Performance of 11. If we then activate Heavy Workload, those 11 is not increased by 20%. A flat 20 points is added, increasing it from 11 to 31. However, at 0 Building Performance, being unmanned, Heavy Workload will not increase it from 0 to 20.
The Building Performance the is multiplied by the base yield of the crop to arrive at the actual yield. So Soybeans have a base yield of 40. If the Building Performance is 120, then the final Yield of the Soybeans will be 48. At 200 Building Performance, the yield is 80.
Soil Quality increases the building performance by 1 point for each percentage above 40. So a 90% farm has a Building Performance of 40 even when unnamed. If we take the single person from the above example that resulted in a Building Performance of 11% at 50% soil Quality, we get a Building Performance of not 11, but 51 at 90% Soil Quality. Add Heavy Workload and it increases to 71 performance. Yes, this means that a single non-specialized worker that would otherwise be performing at 10% can work at 80% with 100% Soil Quality and Heavy Workload. A competent Botanist th

So I'm doing my masters in geotechnical engineering and have a background in civil engineering. Hoping to do my dissertation (starts in June) on either soil mechanics or geotechnical engineering in general, only problem is that I've absolutely no idea on a decent topic to present to a lecturer. My university is mostly mining based so they are very focused on rocks. Generally the uni provides the students with a list of potential dissertation subjects but due to some issues this year that hasn't happened. Hope some of you fine folks could help me out and suggest some ideas, I know this is very vague but that is genuinely because I have no idea at the moment what I wish to do but just know that it isn't to do with mining (apart from possibly tailing designs). Cheers for reading
Hey, team first time using this!!!
I'm just stuck on a question regarding soil mechanics.
I have to talk about why the undrained strength of a normally consolidated clay might increase with depth.
Any youtube channel that can teach me from the basics? I'm taking board exam this May in Philippines
How do I figure out the void Ratio when I only have Mass of Sample (Mt) Volume of Sample (Vt) Dry Mass of Soil (Ms) Specific Gravity (Gs)
Please help, thank you
