Application of discontinuity layout optimization to plane plasticity problems [PDF]
, 2007 A new and potentially widely applicable numerical analysis procedure for continuum mechanics problems is described. The procedure is used here to determine the critical layout of discontinuities and associated upper-bound limit load for plane plasticity ...

EFFECT OF REINFORCEMENT DENSITY ON THE BEHAVIOUR OF REINFORCED SAND UNDER A SQUARE FOOTING [PDF]
Kirkuk Journal of Science, 2017 In this study, the behaviour of reinforced sand under a square footing has been investigated. A series of bearing capacity tests were performed on a small-scale laboratory model, filled with a poorly-graded homogenous bed of sand, which was placed in a ...

Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Ribbed Strip Footing Under Vertical and Inclined Loads
Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2006 This paper investigates the ultimate bearing capacity of a strip footing stiffened with ribs connected to its lower surface.The effect of number and depth of ribs on the bearing capacity are investigated numerically using the finite element method ...

Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2018 An experimental program and numerical computations were performed to investigate the slope effect on the bearing capacity of an eccentrically loaded strip footing. Two cases were considered: unreinforced sand slope and reinforced slope by geogrid. Tests

Investigation on the behavior of two-tiered MSE walls as bridge abutments [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریفMechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls are commonly used as bridge abutments to support bridge deck loads. In this type of abutment, the use of a tiered configuration can play a prominent role in reducing induced horizontal stress, reducing lateral ...

Evaluation of Bearing Capacity of Strip Footing Using Random Layers Concept
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015 The paper deals with evaluation of bearing capacity of strip foundation on random purely cohesive soil. The approach proposed combines random field theory in the form of random layers with classical limit analysis and Monte Carlo simulation.
