TLDR
In this paper, a discrete-continuous model to analyze a buried structure response to static surface loading as well as the soil gravitational load at "service-state" conditions is presented, which can represent positive and negative arching and provides an understanding of the effects that various variables have on the arching type and on the structure response.About:

Experimental Study and Numerical Simulation on Concrete Box Culverts in Trenches
TL;DR: In this paper, a full-scale experiment and FEM simulation were conducted to evaluate the variation of vertical earth pressures and soil arching in backfill and to examine the accuracy of the methods recommended by different design codes including the prevailing Chinese General Code for Design of Highway Bridges and Culverts based on the linear earth pressure theory.

Measuring Soil Pressure on a Buried Model Structure for the Validation of Quantitative Frameworks
TL;DR: In this article, the null response concept is used to measure the soil contact pressure on a buried structure as it interacts with the surrounding soil under load, and the results illustrate the effect of roof stiffness on the development of pressure at the roof center.

Rational approach for assumed stress finite elements
Theodore H. H. Pian,K. Sumihara +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for the formulation of hybrid elements by the Hellinger-Reissner principle is established by expanding the essential terms of the assumed stresses as complete polynomials in the natural coordinates of the element.
