A finite element program based on elastic –plastic model of Mohr-Coulomb criterion was used to evaluate the bearing capacity coefficients of soil under shallow strip flexible footing . The results were compared with others’ analytical results and it was found that the present study could offer quite consistent and rather precise values for the bearing capacity coefficients . The effect of d...

bearing capacity prediction of axially loaded piles is one of the most important problems in geotechnical engineering practices, with a wide variety range of methods which have been introduced to forecast it accurately. machine learning methods have been reported by many contemporary researches with some degree of success in modeling geotechnical phenomena. in this study, a fairly new machine l...

although bearing capacity of footings on top of slopes under monotonic loadings have been investigated widely so far, safety and bearing capacity of these structures against repeated dynamic loads have not been considered well enough. in this paper, lower bound dynamic shakedown theorem in its numerical form has been employed to firstly obtain bearing capacity of strip footings on top of slopes...

A CFD software was employed to analyze the characteristics of the flat round porous aerostatic bearings. The effects of gap between the bearing and the guide way and the porosity of the porous material on the load capacity of the bearing were studied. The adequacy of the simulation model and the approach was verified. From the parametric study, it is found that the depth of the flow path does n...

Load carrying capacity of flat double-layer space structures majorly depends on the structures' imperfections. Imperfections in initial curvature, length, and residual stress of members are all innately random and can affect the load-bearing capacity of the members and consequently that of the structure. The double-layer space trusses are susceptible to progressive collapse due to sudden buckli...

Several deficient steel structural members require to be strengthened all over the world. In this article, horizontal defects were generated at three locations (top, middle, and bottom) on the middle element and the middle of the side element. Consequently, the effects of the location of such defects on axial behavior of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) strengthened steel Square Hollow Se...

Along with other advanced geotechnical technologies for the exploration of underground space, electro-discharge technology (EDT technology) is one fundamental in field construction auger-injection microcircuits, as well transformation properties foundation soils weak physical and mechanical characteristics. At same time, having significant differences compared to methods subsurface development ...

The main factors affecting the load-bearing capacity of new and damaged stone structures are given. One most common types damage to buildings is their cracking. According statistics, frequent reasons for formation cracks in are: uneven settlement foundations, load on structures, temperature deformations, moisture deformations. walls depends compressive strength bricks mortar, but it difficult m...
