Failure mechanism and soil deformation pattern of soil beneath interfering square footings
In this research, the variation of ultimate bearing capacity, failure mechanism and deformation pattern of soil beneath two closely square footings have been studied using numerical methods. It is assumed that the adjacent footings are constructed on the surface of sand. The presented numerical analyses are based on explicit-finite-difference code, FLAC3D. The elasto-plastic behavior of soil is...
متن کاملInvestigating surface fault Rupture Hazard Mitigation for shallow foundations by EPS wall using Numerical studies
Observing destroyed engineered structures and induced fatality due to faulting motivated engineers to consider possible solution for reducing damage to structures. Mitigations countermeasures should be applied when elusion is not possible. Finite element analyses verified through centrifuge model experiments is implemented in this study. Considering different fault dip Angel, critical position ...
متن کاملA 3D Discrete Element Analysis of Failure Mechanism of Shallow Foundations in Rocks
In this research work, a 3D numerical modeling technique is proposed based on the 3D particle flow code in order to investigate the failure mechanism of rock foundations. Two series of footings with different geometries and areas are considered in this work. The failure mechanism obtained is similar to that of the Terzaghi’s but there is a negligible difference in between. Lastly, one equation ...
متن کاملLateral Resistance of Shallow Foundations
The resistance of shallow foundations to lateral loads is often relied upon to transmit the base shear forces from the ground to a building during an earthquake. Considering the importance of this link in the lateral load path it receives little attention in current design practice in New Zealand. An assumption is commonly made, either explicitly or implicitly, that the combination of sliding f...
متن کاملDeformation in the asthenospheric mantle beneath the Carpathian-Pannonian Region
To better understand the evolution and present-day tectonics of the Carpathian-Pannonian Region (CPR), we characterize the upper mantle anisotropic structure. We present a shear wave splitting analysis from teleseismic events recorded at the Carpathian Basin Project and permanent stations located in the CPR. The results show a large-scale uniform NW-SE fast orientation under the entire CPR. Com...
