Geotechnical design with apparent seismic safety factors well-bellow 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The paper demonstrates that whereas often in seismic geotechnical design it is not realistically feasible to design with ample factor of safety against failure as is done in static design, an "engineering" apparent seismic factor of safety less than 1 ...

The Comparison Analysis Of Rigid And Soft Rigid Material Custom Foot Orthosis On Flat Foot Reduction

open access: yesJurnal Keterapian Fisik, 2022
Background: The most frequent musculoskeletal problems, with the passage of time, are flatfoot. According to research, approximately 20–30% of all children in the globe have flat feet, and there are approximately 129 (40%) children that have a flat foot propensity, as determined by the findings of an examination conducted in Sukajadi District, Bandung.

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

ESTIMATION OF (Nγ) FOR STRIP AND CIRCULAR FOOTINGS USING THE METHOD OF CHARACTERISTICS

open access: yesDiyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2011
By using the method of characteristics (commonly referred to as the slip line method), the values of the bearing capacity factor Nγ were computed for rigid surface strip and circular footings with smooth and rough bases. The analyses of bearing capacity

Performance of footing with single side micro-piles adjacent to slopes

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2014
This research was initiated in order to investigate the capability of rigid strip one side micro-piles footings in stabilizing sand slopes. A physical model was designed and constructed for micro-piles footings resting on dense sand.

Immediate Settlement of Ring Footings Resting on Inhomogeneous Finite Stratum

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
This paper describes the immediate settlement of uniformly loaded rough ring footings with any stiffness on an inhomogeneous finite layer overlying a rough rigid base, which is not yet covered in the literature.

Nonlinear analysis of earthquake fault rupture interaction with historic masonry buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The response of historic masonry buildings to tectonic ground displacements is studied through analysis of a simple yet representative soil-foundation-masonry wall system.

Marker cluster rigidity in a multi-segment foot model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2019
Multi-segment foot models (MSFM) are used in gait analysis for the diagnosis and planning of treatment for patients with foot deformities. Like other biomechanical models, MSFMs represent the leg and foot as a series of linked rigid segments, but such a simplification may not be appropriate, particularly for the flexible forefoot.

Application of Particle Image Velocimetry in the Analysis of Scale Effects in Granular Soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The available studies in the literature which dealt with the scale effects of strip footings on different sand packing systematically still remain scarce.

Settlement rehabilitation of a 35 year old building : case study integrated with analysis and implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper presents a rehabilitation project concerning the settlement of a 35 year old building. The foundation system of the northwest wing of the building consists of strip footings and slabon-grade.
