.... The purpose of this paper is to find an optimal way of numerically modelling tapered displacement piles installed in dry and saturated soil conditions and adopt the empirical relationships for predicting the bearing capacity components of this type of displacement pile incorporating the installation effects...

...Pragyan Paramita Das, PhD; Vishwas N. Khatri, PhD A prediction model for the bearing capacity estimation of strip and ring footing embedded in layered sand is proposed using soft computing approaches, namely, artificial neural network (ANN) and random forest regression (RFR). The required data...

...Andrew S. Lees, PhD, MICE, CEng; Abid Ali, PhD, MIEAust Stronger granular layers are often placed as working platforms over weaker sand subgrade. The design of a working platform involves the calculation of a two-layer bearing capacity under rectangular loading. Existing design methods are either...

... to evaluate the consolidation mechanism. The findings revealed that excess pore water pressure dissipation was the primary cause of the short-term evolution of the pile's bearing capacity. The dissipation of excess pore water pressure lowered the void ratio and increased the strength and stiffness...
