Bearing capacity of foundations on slopes
TL;DR: In this article, the bearing capacity of a horizontal strip footing placed along a sloping ground surface is estimated by applying the lower bound finite element limit analysis in conjunction with non-linear optimisation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nγ for rough strip footing using the method of characteristics
TL;DR: In this paper, the bearing capacity factor for a rough strip footing was computed by considering a curved nonplastic wedge under the foundati... and the analysis was performed by considering the curve of the wedge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seismic passive earth pressure coefficients for sands
TL;DR: By taking the failure surface as a combination of the arc of a logarithmic spiral and a straight line, passive earth pressure coefficients in the presence of a horizontal pseudostatic earthquake body were derived in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seismic bearing capacity factors for spread foundations
Jyant Kumar,V. B. K. Mohan Rao +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of horizontal earthquake body forces on the bearing capacity of foundations has been examined computationally in a rigorous manner by employing the method of stress characteristics, and bearing capacity factors N-c, N-q and N-y have been plotted as a function of earthquake acceleration coefficient (a(h)) for different values of soil friction angle (phi).
Effect of Footing Roughness on Bearing Capacity Factor $N_ \gamma$
Jyant Kumar,K. M. Kouzer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of interface friction angle between the footing and underlying soil mass on the bearing capacity factor was examined by using the upper bound limit analysis, finite elements, and linear programming.
