Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Residential real estate sector in India plays a pivotal role in supplying living accommodation to meet the ever-rising demand for housing. In the Indian context, the growth in housing supply has always lagged behind the ...
Modeling Pile Capacity Using Support Vector Machines and Generalized Regression Neural Network
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This note investigates the potential of support vector machines based regression approach to model the static pile capacity from dynamic stress-wave data. A data set of 105 prestressed precast high strength concrete spun ...
Seismic Bearing Capacity Factors for Strip Footings on an Embankment by Using Lower-Bound Limit Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: By using the lower-bound finite-element limit-analysis technique, the bearing capacity of a strip footing placed over an embankment was determined with the incorporation of pseudostatic horizontal seismic body forces. The ...
