Rainfall-induced differential settlements of foundations on heterogeneous unsaturated soils [PDF]

, 2013
This study stochastically investigates the rainfall-induced differential settlement of a centrally loaded, rigid strip foundation on an unsaturated soil with spatially varying values of either preconsolidation stress or porosity.

Interaction of piled foundation with a rupturing normal fault [PDF]

, 2013
Post-seismic observations in the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake in Turkey have indicated that piled foundations may be less suitable than stiff mat foundations in defending a structure against a major normal fault rupturing underneath.

Closed-form solutions to investigate the nonlinear response of foundations supporting operating machines under blast loads

Journal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control, 2023
Machine foundations are subjected to significant dynamic impacts. These impacts could spread to the surrounding regions, affecting workers, sensitive equipment in the same institution, or nearby areas.

Statistical distributions in the folding of elastic structures [PDF]

, 2010
The behaviour of elastic structures undergoing large deformations is the result of the competition between confining conditions, self-avoidance and elasticity. This combination of multiple phenomena creates a geometrical frustration that leads to complex

Effect of Soil Nonlinearity on Analysis of Raft Foundation

Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2022
Soil supporting foundations behave in a nonlinear manner at loading close to its bearing capacity. This behavior affects soil pressure distribution and the corresponding stresses in the raft foundation, which differs significantly from considering the ...
