The calculated response from a numerical model will deviate from the measured one given
the presence of modelling idealizations and real world construction effects. This deviation …

This paper is motivated by the Time Capsule Project (TCP) of the International Society for
Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). The historical developments of …

This research focuses on the application of three soft computing techniques including

Abstract Direct Monte Carlo simulation for the reliability analysis of slope stability with
spatially variable soil properties suffers from a serious lack of efficiency when the probability …

In recent years, spatial variability modeling of soil parameters using random field theory has
gained distinct importance in geotechnical analysis. In the present study, commercially …

Abstract Random field Monte Carlo (MC) reliability analysis is a robust stochastic method to
determine the probability of failure. This method, however, requires a large number of …

A comprehensive study is performed on the allowable capacity of laterally loaded pile
embedded in undrained clay having spatial variation of strength properties. Undrained …

Excessive settlement caused by tunneling during construction often damages adjacent
infrastructures and utilities. Such excessive settlement can also present a challenge in the …

Model Uncertainties in Foundation Design is unique in the compilation of the largest and the
most diverse load test databases to date, covering many foundation types (shallow …

Three probabilistic methods of different complexity for slope stability calculations are in the
