This paper describes the finite element analysis and interpretation of a O-Cell static test in barrette founded on residual soil.

This paper discusses the fallacy of the concept of the critical depth. The fallacy is due to neglecting residual loads in full-scale tests and stress-scale effects at model-scales, made measured load distribution appear linear below a certain "critical" depth. ...

A nonlinear two dimensional monotonic and cyclic undrained finite element analysis is carried out to investigate the stability of the Molikpaq offshore structrure at the Amauligak I-65 site in the Canadian Beaufort Sea

Small scale centrifuge testing are executed and evaluated.<br>

Results of finite element analysis of settlement for footings of three sizes placed in two different sand types show that the settlement in sand is a direct function of neither footing size nor soil density. Instead, the settlement should be related to the ...

Analysis of the results from static loading tests on 11 m instrumented precast concrete piles. This paper offers conclusions drawn from the analyses of piles with regard to residual load and resistance distribution. A primary result of the analyses indicate ...

This paper describes three compression and one tension static loading tests in precast concrete pile driven into sand. The shaft resistance and the toe bearing were evaluated.

Nonlinear finite element analysis was carried out to model three compression and one tension static loading tests in precast concrete pile driven into sand

Lateral interaction between pipelines and overconsolidated soil is modeled using the Advanced Geotechnical Analysis Code (AGAC) finite element program. The analysis is elasto-plastic, coupled stress-consolidation type. The rate of lateral pipeline movement ...
