On Strongly g*-continuous Maps and Pasting Lemma in Topological Spaces
The objective of the present paper is to introduce new classes of functions called Strongly g∗-continuous maps .We obtain some characterizations of these classes and several properties are studied.Also we prove Pasting lemma for Strongly g∗-continuous maps.
Strongly (λ, θ)-continuous functions
In the paper, we introduce and investigate basic properties of a new class of functions between topological spaces called strongly (λ, θ)-continuous functions which is stronger than λ-continuous functions.
Evaluation and Control of Collapsible Soils
Some compacted soils wetted under certain conditions of compaction and loading may exhibit additional settlement (collapse). To investigate the effect of the soil type, compaction water content, initial dry unit weight and applied pressure at wetting on collapse potential, 138 single‐oedometer tests were conducted on eight different soils. The results indicate that well‐graded soils tend to collapse more than poorly graded ones under similar conditions. Furthermore, collapse potential decreases with an increase in (1) The difference between the sand and clay percentages; (2) compaction water content; and (3) initial dry unit weight, while it increases with pressure at wetting. A multiple regression analysis was performed on the laboratory results to provide a collapse‐predictive model that was substantiated by data reported by several researchers. A chart is presented to estimate (1) The collapse potential of soils under various conditions; and (2) the critical water content beyond which no collapse is ex...
