A 2D semi-analytical analysis of the time-dependent settlement of a shallow foundation placed near the soil slope [PDF]

Analytical and Numerical Methods in Mining Engineering, 2022
To assess the safety of the foundation, the ultimate bearing capacity, as well as the settlement of the footing, should be studied. The bearing capacity of a footing built near the slope has been widely investigated.
