Knowledge-based system development for assisting structural design
TL;DR: The article analyses the need for integration of useful modelling aspects, and presents an integrated scheme for the development of knowledge-based design systems (KBDS’s), by way of illustration, the modelling scheme proposed is applied to theDevelopment of a KBDS in a specific domain of structural design.

Visual Observation and Measurement of Aerial Stress Distribution Under a Rigid Strip Footing
TL;DR: In this paper, a tactile sensor was used under the base of a laboratory model of a rigid strip footing (76.2mm x 609.6mm) and the developed contact stresses are peaked along the centerline and lower along the edges.

Effect of reservoir bottom on earthquake response of concrete dams
TL;DR: In this article, a model is proposed for the absorption effects of the reservoir bottom in the earthquake analysis of dams, which utilizes the wave reflection coefficient approach and is based on the solution of the wave equation in a sediment layer of viscoelastic material with a constant thickness overlying an elastic, semi-infinite foundation.

Field Evaluation of Undrained Shear Strength from Piezocone Penetration Tests in Soft Marine Clay
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of field vane testing measurements to CPTU interpretation results is presented, showing that the undrained shear strength values from both the field-vane tests and cone penetration resistances are lowest at the mid-depths of the marine clay layers.
