Numerical Modeling of the Seismically Induced Uplift Behavior of Twin Tunnels
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During an earthquake, large movements of soil may cause the instability and uplift of buried structures in liquefied soil. Intensive studies on the uplift behavior of underground structures have mainly focused on a single ...
Evaluation of the Bending Failure of Columns under an Embankment Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Embankment stability issues present design and research challenges to geotechnical engineers. Current design methodologies for the stability of embankments on columns are mainly evaluated under assumptions of a shear failure ...
Parametric Studies of Wall Displacement in Excavations with Inclined Framed Retaining Walls
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Due to the limitation of cantilever wall in practice, an innovative retaining structure, named inclined framed retaining wall (IFRW), has been developed. The aim of this investigation is to analyze the factors influencing ...
Failure Mechanism and Bearing Capacity of Rigid Footings Placed on Top of Cohesive Soil Slopes in Spatially Random Soil
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper focuses on the bearing capacity of vertically loaded rigid footings adjacent to slopes with spatially random soil by performing random adaptive finite-element limit analysis. The solution is illustrated by ...
Stochastic Bearing Capacity and Failure Mechanism of Footings Placed Adjacent to Slopes considering the Anisotropic Spatial Variability of the Clay Undrained Strength
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of the anisotropic variability in soil on the failure mechanism and the ultimate bearing capacity of foundations that are placed near slopes. A random adaptive ...
Design Method for Wall Deformation and Soil Movement of Excavations with Inclined Retaining Walls in Sand
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The inclined retaining wall has been demonstrated to be an effective and efficient retaining structure for limiting deformation during excavations. However, a design method regarding wall deformation and soil movement of ...
