Bearing capacity of a cohesive-frictional soil under non-eccentric inclined loading
TL;DR: In this article, the bearing capacity of a strip footing, subjected to a non-eccentric inclined load, resting on a ponderable cohesive-frictional soil, is evaluated using finite elements and nonlinear programming.

Effect of soil-structure interaction on damping of structures
Milos Novak,L. El Hifnawy +1 more
Abstract: Damping of structures resting on flexible foundations is affected by soil-structure interaction in two ways: (1) the structure gains damping through energy dissipation in soil, and (2) the damping the structure would have on a rigid foundation is reduced. These effects are evaluated using two approaches: an energy consideration which is a simple but approximate approach, and the complex eigenvalue analysis which is mathematically accurate but uses damped, non-classical vibration modes. These two methods are compared and the accuracy of the more convenient energy approach is assessed. Examples of modal damping are given for rigid structures, buildings and towers.
Modeling arching effets in narrow backfilled stopes with FLAC
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show preliminary results from calculations made with FLAC and compare them with analytical solutions developed to evaluate arching effects in backfill placed in narrow stopes.

Numerical Evaluation of Terzaghi's Nγ
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of finding the log-spiral failure surface (angle θ) defining the radial shear zone that provides minimum passive pressure due to self weight was solved graphically, by trial and error, and provided a plot of φ versus \iN\Dγ\N, probably based on the results of a few trial calculations.
