Uplift Behavior of Belled Piles Subjected to Static Loading

TL;DR: In this paper, a bi-linear equation is given for predicting characteristic loading capacities of piles based on the ratio of bell to shaft diameters (bb/bs) and the embedment depth (L).

A numerical study on pull-out behaviour of cavern-type rock anchorages

TL;DR: In this article, a simple bilinear failure model was proposed to calculate the ultimate pullout capacity of cavern type anchorage tunnels for suspension bridges with cable tension, and the results showed that failure shapes are closer to circular arc model than soil cone model which frequently used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristics of mountain climate change and optimization of agricultural tourism management based on satellite Internet of Things

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the temperature change, geographical distribution and temporal change in the mountainous area in the past few decades, and found that the average temperature in the world has increased year by year.

Interpretation of shallow helical anchor capacity in sand

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between measured breakout capacity and a range of theoretical capacity solutions (i.e., limit equilibrium, limit analysis, finite element and cavity expansion) for shallow embedded anchors in sand is presented.

Drag force in immersed granular materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the drag forces acting on large objects moving through a granular packing immersed in water and identify empirical scaling laws for these properties and introduce a Darcy-flow mechanism that can explain them.

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

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, +1 more
- 01 Mar 1982 - 
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.
