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

open access: yesAdvances 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 ...

Deformation and Stability of a Deep Excavation in Basalt Strata: A Case Study

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To investigate the behavior of deep excavations in basaltic formations, finite element models were developed based on field cases with on‐site monitoring data, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of the deformation patterns, environmental impacts, and stability of the excavations throughout the excavation process.

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yesInternational 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

Kinematic Limit Analysis of Roof Stability for Elliptical Tunnels in Rock Masses

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 16, Page 3880-3896, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Noncircular cross‐sections are commonly encountered in engineering practice; however, primary attempts to analyze roof stability have focused on circular and rectangular configurations. This study investigates the roof stability of elliptical tunnels with varying aspect ratios, employing two semi‐analytical approaches: piecewise linear and ...
