Elastic Settlement Analysis of Rigid Rectangular Footings on Sands and Clays
Geosciences, 2020 In this paper an elastic settlement analysis method for rigid rectangular footings applicable to both clays and sands is proposed. The proposed method is based on the concept of equivalent shape, where any rectangular footing is suitably replaced by a ...

Installation effect of rigid inclusions in soft clay improvement
Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2023 Rigid Inclusions have been increasingly used as a successful technique for improving soft clay deposits. This technique was first introduced by Menard in the 1990s and is known commercially as Controlled Modulus Columns (CMC’s) [1]. Unlike ordinary piles

Reverse club foot. Rigid and recalcitrant talipes calcaneovalgus [PDF]
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1987 We describe a congenital deformity of the foot which is characterised by calcaneus at the ankle and valgus at the subtalar joint; spontaneous improvement does not occur and serial casting results in incomplete or impermanent correction of the deformities.
