FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF EMBANKMENTS ON SOFT CLAY

Finite Element Analysis of Embankments on Soft Ground Incorporating Reinforcement and Drains

Modeling of Tactile Detection of an Artery in a Soft Tissue by Finite Element Analysis

Nowadays, one of the main problems encountered in minimally invasive surgery and telesurgery is the detection of arteries in tissue. In this study, for the first time, tactile detection of an artery in tissue and distinguishing it from the tumor has been modeled by finite element method. In this modeling, three 2D models of tissue have been created: tissue, tissue including a tumor, and tissue ...

On Finite Element Implementation for Cam Clay Model

Cam clay models are one of the popularly used soil plasticity models. Finite element implementation of these models requires integration of constitutive relations and load stepping scheme. There have been considerable advances in the integration of constitutive relations. These methods can be grouped as explicit and implicit methods. The superiority of one over the other lies in the context of ...

Reliability of embankments on soft ground using constrained optimization

The paper deals with the stability of reinforced embankments on soft clay foundations, and presents alternative practical and versatile procedures for easy implementation of the traditionally tedious and iterative limit equilibrium methods of slices, including Bishop’s simplified method and Spencer’s method of slices. The proposed implementation procedures combine the use of constrained optimiz...
