MPM simulation of CPT and model calibration by inverse analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the material point method (MPM) to simulate a CPT boundary value problem and used a gradient-based non-linear regression analysis to calibrate the input parameters of the constitutive law.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental and numerical modeling of uplift behavior of rectangular plates in cohesionless soil
TL;DR: In this article, the uplift response of rectangular anchor plates has been investigated in physical model tests and numerical simulation using PLAXIS 2D, based on 200 mm and 300 mm computed maximum displacements.

Predicting the Shear Strength of Unfilled Rock Joints with the First-Order Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model for predicting the shear strength of unfilled rock joints by incorporating uncertainties in the variables that govern its shear behavior with a First-Order Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy controller.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uplift Resistance of Long Pipelines in the Presence of Seismic Forces
TL;DR: In this article, the vertical uplift resistance of long pipes buried in sands and subjected to pseudostatic seismic forces has been computed by using the lower bound theorem of the limit analysis in conjunction with finite elements and nonlinear optimization.
A study on load capacity of horizontal and inclined plate anchors in sandy soils
TL;DR: In this paper, various experimental, theoretical and numerical approaches for estimation of load capacity of horizontal and inclined plate anchors are reviewed, and the static ultimate pullout capacity is worked out by using the various correlations and techniques, and computed results are presented and compared.

Extended limit design theorems for continuous media
TL;DR: In this paper, the safe loads for a Prandtl-Reuss material subject to surface tractions or displacements which increase in ratio are extended to any perfectly plastic material and any history of loading.

The Ultimate Uplift Capacity of Foundations
G G Meyerhof,J I Adams +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the ultimate uplift capacity of foundations with special reference to transmission tower footings is evaluated and a number of model uplift tests made by the authors and by others are studied and evaluated.

The behaviour of anchor plates in sand
R. K. Rowe,E. H. Davis +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a theoretical investigation into the behavior of anchor plates in sand, considering the effects of anchor embedment, friction angle, dilatancy, initial stress and initial stress on the anchor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breakout resistance of objects embedded in ocean bottom
TL;DR: For relatively shallow anchors in undisturbed dense and stiff soils, general shear along a convex, torical slip surface is observed as mentioned in this paper, which degenerates into a cylindrical surface for remolded, compressible and semiliquid soils.

Failure Loads of Vertical Anchor Plates in Sand
TL;DR: In this article, a series of tests on model anchor plates in sand are described in the form of dimensionless force coefficients and shape factors relating failure loads to the geometry of the anchor and its depth of embedment.
