Lower bound solutions for uplift capacity of strip anchors adjacent to sloping ground in clay

TL;DR: In this article, numerical solutions have been obtained for the vertical uplift capacity of strip plate anchors embedded adjacent to sloping ground in fully cohesive soil under undrained condition, and the analysis was performed using finite element lower bound limit analysis with second order conic optimization technique.

Vertical uplift resistance of two closely spaced horizontal strip anchors embedded in cohesive-frictional weightless medium

TL;DR: In this article, the vertical uplift resistance of two closely spaced horizontal strip plate anchors has been investigated by using lower and upper bound theorems of the limit analysis in combination with finite elements and linear optimization.

Three-dimensional numerical and analytical study of horizontal group of square anchor plates in sand

TL;DR: In this article, numerical and analytical methods are used to evaluate the ultimate pullout capacity of a group of square anchor plates in row or square configurations, installed horizontally in dense sand, and the interference effect is evaluated by group efficiency, defined as the ratio of the ultimate pulling capacity of group of N anchor plates to that of a single isolated plate multiplied by number of plates.

Pullout capacity of multi-plate horizontal anchors in sand: an experimental study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of double-and triple-plated anchors with the single-plate anchors in terms of pullout capacity and critical embedding ratio.

Lower bound limit analysis using finite elements and linear programming

TL;DR: In this article, a technique for computing lower bound limit loads in soil mechanics under conditions of plane strain is described, where a perfectly plastic soil model is assumed, which may be either purely cohesive or cohesive-frictional, together with an associated flow rule.

Uplift of Anchor Plates in Sand

TL;DR: In this article, an investigation into the vertical uplift of anchor plates in a cohesionless medium is described, and factors investigated in relation to the loaddisplacement response were the size and shape of plate.

Limit load in translational failure mechanisms for associative and non-associative materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the equivalence of the energy balance approach and the equilibrium of force in geotechnical boundary-value problems is discussed, and a translation mechanism for estimation of the limit load in boundary value problems is proposed.
