Abstract: A boundary element formulation for the dynamic analysis of axially and laterally loaded single piles and pile groups is presented. The piles are represented by compressible beam-column elements and the soil as a hysteretic elastic half-space. The governing equations of motion for the pile domain have been solved exactly for distributed periodic loading intensities. These solutions are then coupled with a numerical solution for the motion of the soil domain by satisfying equilibrium and compatibility at the pile-soil interface. The results obtained from the analysis compare favourably with those from alternative analyses, e.g. finite element, but at greatly reduced computational costs.

TL;DR: A back-propagation network is set up and trained to predict the pile bearing capacity from dynamic testing data, and the trained network produces better results than a pile driving formula approach.

Abstract: An analysis has been made of different methods of measuring the yield stress of liquids. In the experimental program, a comparison is made of measurements of the yield stress using an Instron 3250 Rheometer in several geometries (cone-plate, parallel plate and eccentric disk) in shear flow and stress relaxation, a laboratory vane and a cone penetrometer. Good agreement has been obtained between the shear flow data and the laboratory vane, while stress relaxation appears to underestimate the yield stress.

...(d) The yield stress can be determined from the maximum torque exerted on a vane immersed in the liquid; the vane has been used in soil mechanics to measure shear strength [ 22 , 24] and also with red mud slurries to measure ry [23]....

...It has been suggested that the diameter of the sheared surface may be up to 507o larger than the vane dimensions [ 22 ]....

TL;DR: Predictions of bearing capacity from the developed multiple regression models and MLP in tractable equations form are obtained and compared with the value predicted using traditional methods and indicate ANNs are able to predict accurately the bearing capacity of strip footing and outperform the existing methods.
