News Pile Foundations Numerical & Constitutive Modeling Finite Element / Finite Difference

The problem of analyzing and designing deep foundations is relevant to many civil engineering structures, because we are commonly and frequently constructing buildings on soft soils. Pile foundation is a popular type of deep foundation technique used to transfer superstructure load into subsoil and bearing layers. In this context, the accurate prediction of piles’ settlement and proper evaluation of pile bearing capacity is a fundamental aspect of deep foundation design.
