Behavior of ring footing resting on reinforced sand subjected to eccentric-inclined loading

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018
Ring footings are suitable for the structures like tall transmission towers, chimneys, silos and oil storages. These types of structures are susceptible to horizontal loads (wind load) in addition to their dead weight.

Deformation Analysis of Deep Foundation Pits Based on Fluid–Structure Interaction

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In foundation pit engineering design, the seepage‐induced impact of groundwater is often oversimplified when calculating the deformation of the retaining structure and the surrounding soil caused by excavation. Moreover, the coupled interaction between groundwater and soil is neglected, causing simulated conditions to deviate from actual site ...

Stability study on the northern batter of MBC Open Pit using Plaxis 3D

Arabian Journal of Geosciences, 2018
Cracks appeared on the northern batter at Maddingley Brown Coal Open Pit Mine, Victoria, Australia, on 8 November 2013 and a 2-day rainfall event happened 5 days later. This study models the stability of the northern batter considering the effect of the rainfall event and an emergency buttress using finite element method (FEM) encoded in Plaxis 3D.

Settlement Analysis of a Large Pile Group Supporting an LNG Storage Tank

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 16, Page 3858-3879, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks are often supported by large pile groups (>100 piles). The design of such foundations is generally governed by settlement rather than bearing capacity. However, minimal information is available regarding the settlement performance of the LNG tank foundations. This article first presents a comprehensive
