Abstract: Pile groups are frequently designed with equal or similar pile lengths. However, the significant interaction effects among equal-length piles imply that this may not be the optimized configuration. This paper presents the ...

Abstract: This paper presents probabilistic analyses of slopes and strip footings, with spatially variable soil modeled by the random field theory. Random fields are simulated using Latin hypercube sampling with dependence (LHSD), ...

Abstract: This paper compares linear-elastic and nonlinear pile group analysis methods through settlement analyses of hypothetical scenarios and real case studies, and elaborates on the implications for interpretation of pile load ...

Abstract: Land reclamations often demand large quantities of fill materials. However, many countries commonly engaged in land reclamation are facing an escalating scarcity of natural fill sources. To address this issue, this study ...
