The node-based smoothed finite element method (NS-FEM) is shortly presented for
calculations of the static and seismic bearing capacities of shallow strip footings. A series of …

Given the prevalence of such scenarios worldwide, it is of the utmost importance for
geotechnical practitioners to understand the behavior of a strip footing located over a pipe …

The footing-on-slope system is very complicated since it is governed, in part, by both the
bearing capacity and slope stability. The material point method (MPM), which is specifically …

Numerical and computational analyses surrounding the behavior of the bearing capacity of
soils near or adjacent to slopes have been of great importance in earthwork constructions …

The current research employs a power type yield criterion which accounts for the
dependency of the shear strength parameters, namely, cohesion and internal friction, on …

The method of characteristics was used to estimate the coefficients N γ for shallow strip
footings located adjacent to the slopes. The soil-footing interface roughness (δ) was …

Experimental studies indicate that the yield parameters for soils remain generally stress
dependent, in which case, the internal friction angle reduces continuously with an increase …

Most studies try to establish a stress field and a compatible velocity field simultaneously to
evaluate the seismic bearing capacity of strip footings placed adjacent to homogeneous soil …

The method of characteristics has been used to develop a rigorous solution for the
evaluation of seismic bearing capacity of shallow foundations resting on homogenous fully …

A rigorous and practical solution aimed at accounting for the effect of groundwater in the
assessment of bearing capacity of shallow strip footings in plane strain conditions has been …
