The nature of soil varies horizontally as well as vertically, owing to the process of the
formation of soil. Thus, ensuring the safe design of geotechnical structures has been a major …

Numerous studies have repeatedly demonstrated the efficiency of using skirts to increase
the bearing capacity and to reduce settlement of shallow foundations subjected to static …

U-section steel sheet piles are widely used as support structures in bridge foundation pit
excavation. Because of the reduced modulus action (RMA) effect of U-section steel sheet …

This study examines the influence of the interference on the dynamic response of two active
machine foundations using the finite element analysis. The finite element model has been …

The closed-form solutions for the undrained bearing capacity of shallow footing have been
derived considering only single footing due to difficulties associated with adding the effect of …

The biggest problem for a shallow foundation, just as for any other type of foundation, is a
failure due to an overestimation of the bearing capacity. This means that the correct …

This study presents a hybrid Artificial Intelligence-Finite Element Method (AI-FEM) predictive
model to estimate the modulus of a subgrade reaction of a strip footing rested on a bi …

Numerical investigation of the failure mechanism developed beneath a strip footing resting
on non-dilatant cohesionless soil has been investigated in a finite element framework. The …

Understanding the compressive behavior of reconstituted clays plays the central role for
many infrastructures, particularly for those built in coastal areas. This paper presents an …

This paper reports about a finite element based numerical analysis of the failure mechanism
developed beneath a strip footing resting on horizontal ground. The observed failure …
