Abstract: This paper pertains to the finite-element lower bound limit analysis (FELA-LB) of vertical strip anchors embedded in cohesionless and cohesive soils and subjected to static and earthquake forces (using pseudostatic analysis) ...

Abstract: This paper pertains to the finite-element lower-bound bearing capacity analysis of inverted triangular-based strip footings (ITBFs). The solutions are obtained by the construction of a linear stress field that satisfies ...
