Abstract: Low plasticity silts and silty clays occur extensively in the central United States. For evaluating their liquefaction potential during an earthquake, no guidelines are available based on their density, void ratio, plasticity ...

Abstract: A method has been developed to predict the load-displacement relationship for single piles subjected to lateral load, embedded in sands, considering soil nonlinearity using subgrade reaction. This is the first systematic ...

Abstract: In this paper, a novel analysis is proposed to predict the pressure‐settlement characteristics of footings using the hyperbolic stress‐strain curves of soils as the constitutive law. The analysis is competent to incorporate ...
