A finite element program based on elastic –plastic model of Mohr-Coulomb criterion was used to evaluate the bearing capacity coefficients of soil under shallow strip flexible footing . The results were compared with others’ analytical results and it was found that the present study could offer quite consistent and rather precise values for the bearing capacity coefficients . &#10&#10The effect ...

In this paper, using Monte Carlo Fortran code, we have obtained the binding energies for three different systems of diquark–antidiquark in distances from 0.01 to 15 nm. In [0.1 - 15] nm interval, we made use of Coulomb potential because in this interval, strong interaction is negligible. We have compared the binding energies of the systems with one another. The results of these comparisons...

Faults often separate materials with different elastic properties. Nonuniform slip on such faults induces a change in normal stress. That suggests the possibility of self-sustained slip pulses [Weertman, 1980] propagating at the generalized Rayleigh wave speed even with a Coulomb constitutive law (i.e., with a constant coefficient of friction) and a remote driving shear stress that is arbitrari...

SUMMARY The Gutenberg–Richter (GR) and the Omori–Utsu (OU) law describe earthquakes’ energy release temporal clustering are thus of great importance for seismic hazard assessment. Motivated by experimental results, which indicate stress-dependent parameters, we consider a combined global data set 127 main shock–aftershock sequences perform systematic study relationship between shock-induced str...
