Description
This book deals with the advanced analysis of the shallow foundations. Several research studies are considered including soil plasticity, cracking, reaching the soil bearing capacity, and creep. Dynamic analyses together with stability analysis are also included. It gives a wide range of dealing with the shallow foundations in different parts of the world. Groundwater Numerical Modelling of Amman-Zarqa Basin-Jordan.- A density-dependent constitutive model of rockfill as well as a dynamic contact technique for simulation of dynamic compaction with MPM.- Bearing capacity of square footing: A comparative study employing non-associative MC and MCC model.- A micro-mechanical study for constant shear drained behaviour of granular material.- Stiff degradation of granular material EUR” a DEM approach.- Conventional method to estimate settlement of plate subjected to bi-axial loading EUR” Part II.- Numerical prediction of thermo-mechanical behavior of energy pile in pyroclastic soil.- The Role of Constitutive Material Laws on the Jacking of Single Pile into Sandy Soil using Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian Method.- Numerical analysis of instabilities affecting an excavation on the High Speed Line in Northern Morocco.- Effects of Reynolds number and aspect ratio on the turbulence characteristics in developing and fully developed flow over a rough bed.
