Numerical study on bearing capacity of single stone column

Experimental and Numerical Study of Tension Bearing Capacity of Circular Skirted Foundations Resting on Sand Bed

Skirted foundations are an appropriate alternative to deep foundations in onshore and offshore structures, which have the ability to withstand uplift loads, are also easy to be installed. The tensile performance of skirted foundations on sand was studied by physical and numerical modeling. Laboratory tests were carried out on small-scale foundation models with peripheral skirts. Numerical model...

An experimental and numerical study on the bearing capacity of circular and ring footings on rehabilitated sand slopes with geogrid

This paper presents the results of a series of small-scale model tests and numerical analyses conducted on circular and ring model footings located near geogrid reinforced sand slopes. Layers of geogrid were used as reinforcement. For numerical analyses Finite Element Method (FEM) was used. The effects of reinforcement depth, size, number of layers, and the horizontal distance between reinforce...

Influence of the Vibro Stone Column Reinforcement on The the Seismic Bearing Capacity of a Surface Shallow Footing

In difficult soil conditions, engineers sometimes choose to combine reinforced soil and spread footings instead of deep foundations. Among the available techniques for soil reinforcement, vibro stone columns are frequently used to reduce the liquefaction risk, improve the soil properties and improve the overall seismic performance. While there are different models available to evaluate the bear...
