Numerical analysis of soil bearing capacity by changing soil characteristics
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2009, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
In this research work by changing different parameters of soil foundation like density, cohesion and foundation depth and width of square foundation at angle of friction of 0° to 50°with increment of 5°, numerically safe bearing capacity of soil foundation is calculated and it is attempted to assess economical dimension of foundation as well as understanding variation range of bearing capacity at different degree. It could help of civil engineering in design of foundations at any situation.

Effect of nonlinearity of restrainer and supports on the elasto-plastic seismic response of continuous girder bridge
During an earthquake, the nonlinearity of the bridge structure mainly occurs at the supports, bridge piers and restrainers. When entering nonlinear stage, members of the bridge structure affect the elasto-plastic...
Development of a multiaxial fatigue damage parameter and life prediction methodology for non-proportional loading
Most of the prior studies on the prediction of fatigue lives have been limited to uniaxial loading cases, whereas real world loading scenarios are often multiaxial, and the prediction of fatigue life based upon uniaxial...
Process of cracking in reinforced concrete beams (simulation and experiment)
The paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations of the mechanisms of crack formation in reinforced concrete beams subjected to quasi-static bending. The boundary-value problem has bee...
Some practical crack path examples
It is well known that many engineering structures and components, as well as consumer items, contain cracks or crack-like flaws. It is widely recognised that crack growth must be considered both in design and in...
Averaged strain energy density-based synthesis of crack initiation life in notched steel bars under torsional fatigue
The torsional fatigue behaviour of circumferentially notched specimens made of austenitic stainless steel, SUS316L, and carbon steel, SGV410, characterized by different notch root radii has been recently investiga...
