Numerical analyses have been performed to study the evolution of the factor of safety following the excavation of a cut in clay. The analyses consider variable thickness of the clayey soil deposit under the excavation. The results show that, for[...]

Two accurately monitored preloading embankments built to reduce the settlement of two oil tanks for a thermoelectric power plant near Mantova, Italy, were analysed using the finite element method and different constitutive assumptions. The most [...]

Cyclic loading can be important for the foundation design of structures, both offshore, along the coast, and on land, and for the stability of slopes. This is illustrated by several examples. The paper discusses how soil behaves under cyclic loa[...]

The traditional state-surface approach to the study of unsaturated soil behavior is becoming much less popular these days, as it uses unique constitutive surfaces to represent unsaturated soil behavior. This approach is essentially a nonlinear e[...]

In the previous companion paper, a modified state-surface approach was proposed to algebraically represent unsaturated soil behavior under isotropic stress conditions. The present paper proposes a general theoretic formulation for the modified s[...]

This paper presents the results of an extensive parametric study on single piles and pile groups embedded in a two-layer subsoil profile, and is aimed to evaluate kinematic bending moments developing during earthquakes. A quasi three-dimensional[...]

Earthquake accelerations can cause many problems in sloping ground. One such problem is that accelerations are greatly amplified at the crest of slopes. This topographic amplification can lead to acceleration gradients along the ground surface, [...]

Unsaturated soil interfaces exist where unsaturated soil is in contact with structures such as foundations, retaining walls, and buried pipes. The unsaturated soil interface can be defined as a layer of unsaturated soil through which stresses ar[...]
