The mechanical behavior of two straddle-packer systems subjected to pressure histories which replicated hydrofracture stress-measurement procedures has been investigated. The systems were pressurized in borehole simulators consisting of lengths of steel casing instrumented with strain gages. From the strain histories, the stresses applied to the casing by the packer elements could be calculated. The systems studied differed in the manner in which the packer elements were coupled; in one system the packers were rigidly coupled end-to-end (rigid coupling), whereas in the other, the tops of the two packers were rigidly coupled leaving the bottom of the upper packer free to slide on the mandrel (sliding coupling). The elements that featured in the two systems were also greatly different. The results indicate that the sliding coupling system tested exhibited nearly ideal behavior up to the maximum interval pressure attained in the tests of 25 MPa. This is accredited to intrinsic superiority of the sliding coupling design.


Solid wastes are all the waste which arise from human being and mammal activities that are normally solid and are surplus as unwanted material. In this study, the firm waste has been generated by dredging the Dal Lake, which posesses grave dumping and ecological problems around the Dal Lake. In this study, different percentages of dredged material (by weight) were added to normal silty clay soil samples (obtained from Srinagar city in India) and their index properties and compaction characteristics (using Modified Proctor Compaction tests) were determined. Disturbed soil specimens for various laboratory tests were prepared in the laboratory at 0.95dmax and corresponding water content on the dry side of optimum. CBR sample stabilize with dredged soil were experienced for unsoaked and soaked (soaked for 4 days) conditions. Tests results shows great improvement in engineering properties and CBR value with rise in normal silty clay soil contents in dredged soil. therefore, dredged soil has both rewards. First, to avoid the remarkable ecological problems caused by large scale discarding of dredged soil and second, to help in suitable development of environment about well-known dal lake
