Abstract: This paper deals with the design of rigid piles under lateral load. In many practical situations pile displacements may be the limiting factor in the design; thus, an allowable displacement analysis instead of an allowable ...

Abstract: Earth‐pressure problems are of great interest in geotechnical engineering and closed‐form solutions for evaluating the active‐earth pressure are widely used in the design of retaining structures. The note presents a ...

Abstract: An approximate elastic perfectly plastic solution in a closed form for axially loaded piles based on the

Abstract: Abstract. The stronger coupling between the turbomachinery and the air inlet becomes more relevant in next-generation turbofan engines with low-pressure ratio fans and compact nacelles. This study presents a numerical ...

Abstract: This paper describes a multi-objective optimization method for the design of stall-regulated horizontal-axis wind turbines. Two modules are used for this purpose: an aerodynamic model implementing ...
