...E. Agarwal; N. Luo This study presents a proof-of-concept surrogate-assisted finite-element ( FE ) framework for multi-objective design optimisation of geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankments ( GRPSE ), focusing on internal stability. A multilayer perceptron neural network was trained...

...Tuan A. Pham The main focus of this paper is to present a multi-interaction model under a simplified form for calculating load transfer to piles and geosynthetic strain of piled embankments. The multi-interaction model is established by considering the integrated load transfer mechanisms and all...
