Abstract: When the time rate of change of the thermomechanical forces in a continuum is high enough to produce stress wave, the solution must be sought through the simultaneous consideration of the ...

Abstract: Advanced constitutive models require several input parameters, some of which represent intrinsic soil properties and some mathematical fitting parameters. Calibrating these modeling parameters is often a challenging component ...

Abstract: The cone penetration test (CPT) is used as a complementary approach for determining the bearing capacity of piles. Via direct CPT methods for pile capacity prediction, correlation coefficients smaller than unity are used ...
