Abstract: In this study, the effect of load application point (zp) on the load capacity (Qu) of helical anchors under inclined loading condition was investigated. For this purpose, coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian finite element analyses ...

Abstract: Estimation of spudcan penetration resistance is an important design step to guarantee the stability and functionality of offshore mobile jack-up units. Dependence on in situ penetrometer test data to evaluate the stratigraphy ...

Abstract: In the current study, the load responses and interaction effects of piled rafts embedded in sands were investigated. A series of centrifuge load tests were conducted using different types of model foundations. Single piles, ...

Abstract: In this study, the uplift load-carrying capacity of micropiles was investigated, focusing on the effect of various installation conditions including installation angle (θ), spacing (S), and group configuration. For this ...

Abstract: In this paper, state-dependent elastic characteristics of granular subgrade materials were investigated, assuming various field conditions. For this purpose, a series of resonant column tests were conducted. The test ...

Abstract: In the present paper, the estimation of limit unit bearing capacity

Abstract: The settlement of foundations under working load conditions is an important design consideration. Well‐designed foundations induce stress‐strain states in the soil that are neither in the linear elastic range nor in the ...

Abstract: In this study, the lateral load–carrying capacity of micropiles was investigated focusing on the effect of micropile inclination. A series of model load tests was conducted for both single (SMP) and group (GMP) micropiles ...
