Comparison between Analytical Method and Numerical Model for Footings on Soft Clay Supported by Stone Columns

Numerical and physical modeling of soft soil slope stabilized with stone columns

There can be many reasons for engineers to place the footings near a slope such as leakage of suitable sites or architectural considerations. One of the approaches to increase the amount of bearing capacity, especially in soft soils, is adding stone columns to the soil. In this research, the behavior of a strip footing placed near a stone column reinforced clayey slope was investigated. For thi...

A comparison between numerical and analytical modeling of ECAP

Recent developments in nanostructured products draw considerable attention to ultrafine grained materials. These materials are normally manufactured by different severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods. In the present study, analytical models and finite element method (FEM) are used to calculate strain imposed to a specimen that was deformed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). In additio...

An Analytical Method for the Evaluation of the RC Columns Capacity Strengthened by Concrete Overlays

Experimental and Numerical study of earth slope reinforcement using ordinary and rigid stone columns

Earth slopes stabilization is one of the main issues focused on by are in geotechnical engineer. Use of stone columns is one of approaches well increasing the safety factor of earth slopes of the soil embankments; furthermore, it is economical besides the simplicity and ease it exhibits in implementation. . The present paper aims at an experimental comparison of the Ordinary Stone Column (OSC) ...
