A site is underlain by a 10 meter layer of dry gravel with unit weight = 20 kN/m3. The lateral stress ratio of the gravel is 0.25. Point A is located 6 meters below the ground surface. Determine the shear stress that acts at point A on a plane inclined 45 degrees counterclockwise from the horizontal. Express your answer in kPa, but do not write the units in the text box (just the numeric answer). If you get a negative answer, do not write the negative sign "-". For example, if you get -12 kPa, simply write 12.

A site is underlain by two layers of normally consolidated clayey sand. The unit weights of the top layer are 19 and 21 kN/m3 and the layer is 6 meters thick. The unit weights of the bottom layer are 20 and 22 kN/m3 and the layer is 8 meters thick. Below the bottom layer lies bedrock. The water table is located 2 meters below the ground surface. The top layer soil has an effective stress friction angle of 38 degrees,...

Determine the effective stress on a plane oriented 45 degrees from the horizontal, at a point located at 10 meters of depth in a saturated site. The unit weight of the soil is 20 kN/m 3, the unit weight of water is 10 kN/m 3, and the lateral stress coefficient is 0.5. Express your answer in kPa (but only write the numeric value in the text box).

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
