D. V. Griffiths, Auteur ; Jinsong Huang, Auteur ; Gordon A. Fenton, Auteur |The paper investigates the probability of failure of slopes using both traditional and more advanced probabilistic analysis tools. The advanced method, called the random finite-element method, uses elastoplasticity in a finite-element model comb[...]

N. C. Koutsabeloulis, Auteur ; D. V. Griffiths, Auteur |The trap door problem is a useful model for providing a clearer understanding of the stress distribution around civil engineering structures such as anchor plates and tunnels. The passive mode can be used either to compute the uplift force of an[...]

J. Huang, Auteur ; D. V. Griffiths, Auteur |One-dimensional consolidation theories for layered soil have been re-examined. Coupled (settlement and excess pore pressure), uncoupled (excess pore pressure only) and the classical Terzaghi equation are solved by the finite-element method. By a[...]

Jinsong Huang, Auteur ; D. V. Griffiths, Auteur ; Gordon A. Fenton, Auteur |Coupled Biot consolidation theory was combined with the random finite-element method to investigate the consolidation behavior of soil deposits with spatially variable properties in one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) spaces. The coeff[...]

D. V. Griffiths, Auteur ; Gordon A. Fenton, Auteur |The paper discusses finite element models for predicting the elastic settlement of a strip footing on a variable soil. The paper then goes on to compare results obtained in a probabilistic settlement analysis using a stochastic finite element me[...]

Jinsong Huang, Auteur ; D. V. Griffiths, Auteur |Two well-known return mapping algorithms, the closest point projection method (CPPM) and the cutting plane algorithm (CPA), have been analyzed in detail in relation to two classical failure problems in geomechanics, namely, bearing capacity and [...]

Lysandros Pantelidis, Auteur ; D. V. Griffiths, Auteur |Traditional slope stability analysis delivers the factor of safety with respect to shear strength, which is the factor by which tanφ' and c' must be reduced to bring a slope to the point of failure. In the present paper, alternative strategies a[...]
