... and the resulting bearing capacity. Laboratory model tests were performed using anchor models with embedment lengths of 30, 60, and 90 cm, installed in uniformly compacted sand. Displacement fields were recorded using the particle image velocimetry technique. The tests revealed well-defined zones of soil–anchor...

.... An increase in pore-water pressure during excitations can reduce soil shear strength, and consequently, lead to a decrease of the soil bearing capacity and an increase of settlement. In this study, using physical modelling, the effect of the presence of a non-liquefiable layer with different thicknesses...

Hybrid foundations are common for offshore applications, comprising shallow foundations reinforced with vertical plates around the perimeter to resist vertical, horizontal and moment loading.

The authors conducted a series of fundamental laboratory bearing capacity tests on rigid and flexible model footings placed on dense sand to simulate and compare the mechanical behaviour of bearing plates...

... of the bearing capacities of foundations under undrained conditions are usually done using the approach of Prandtl, which assumes constant values of the undrained shear strength. Analytical models using the kinematic element method show that the failure mechanism and the bearing capacity are both influenced...

Narita and Yamaguchi assumed that the failure surface is expressed by a single logarithmic spiral, and calculated the bearing capacity...

.... To satisfy the similitude of the model, the relative ratios of bending rigidity for the sheet piles and the ground rigidity were taken into consideration. It was shown that the sheet pile foundation offers outstanding performance in terms of both bearing capacity and earthquake resistance. In addition...
