Failure Mechanisms of Pile Foundations in Liquefiable Soil: Parametric Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the response of piles in liquefiable soil under seismic loads. The effects of soil, pile, and earthquake parameters on the two potential pile failure mechanisms, bending and buckling, are examined. The ...
Analysis and Design of Vibration Isolation System Using Open Trenches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field vibration tests were carried out at a proposed site for the vibration testing room, and 2D numerical analysis using finite difference tool FLAC 5.0 was performed to suggest effective vibration isolation systems. In ...
Optimum Design of Cantilever Retaining Walls Using Target Reliability Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, an approach for reliability-based design optimization of reinforced concrete cantilever retaining wall is described. A parametric study is conducted to assess the effect of uncertainties in design parameters ...
Seismic Rotational Displacements of Gravity Walls by Pseudodynamic Method with Curved Rupture Surface
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the use of pseudodynamic method to compute the rotational displacements of gravity retaining walls under passive condition when subjected to seismic loads. The concept of Newmark sliding block method ...
Reliability-Based Design Optimization of Shallow Foundation on Cohesionless Soil Based on Surrogate-Based Numerical Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper develops an approach that utilizes kriging surrogate models for the reliability-based design of geotechnical structures. Surrogate models improve the computational efficiency and reduce the complexity of ...
Slope Stability and Deformation Analysis of Bangalore MSW Landfills Using Constitutive Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Landfill stability and deformation analysis is one of the most important concerns in the design and operation of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. Estimation of landfill capacities based on the deformation characteristics ...

Effect of Rainfall Infiltration on the Stability of Compacted Embankments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Rainfall infiltration causes the collapse of unsaturated embankments due to loss of suction. In this paper, the Barcelona Basic Model (BBM), a constitutive model developed for unsaturated soils, was implemented in Fast ...
Prediction of the Maximum Tensile Load in Reinforcement Layers of a MSE Wall Using ANN-Based Response Surface Method and Probabilistic Assessment of Internal Stability of the Wall
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The design of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls depends greatly on the maximum tensile loads developed in the reinforcement layers. In practice, it has been found that the measured tensile loads significantly differ ...
Probabilistic Evaluation of the Uplift Capacity of Transmission Tower Foundations Using Reinforced Anchors
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study pertains to the probabilistic assessment for analysis and design of uplift capacity of transmission tower foundation reinforced with horizontal anchor using the radial basis function (RBF)-based response ...
