This book was released on 1969 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this investigation was to develop procedures for conducting finite element analyses of stresses and movements in embankments during construction. The procedures developed involve incremental analyses, simulating successive stages during construction of the embankment, and employ nonlinear stress-strain parameters determined from the results of laboratory tests. Previous studies of the nonlinear, stress-dependent stress-strain behavior of soils were extended during this investigation to include variations of Poisson's ratio values as well as modulus values for use in incremental analyses. In order to examine the suitability of these procedures for representing the stress-strain characteristics of a wide variety of soils under both drained and undrained test conditions, the procedures were applied to 46 different soils, ranging from cobble sizes to highly plastic clays, for which stress-strain information had been published or was available from other sources. In each case it was found that the simple procedures developed for representing nonlinear, stress-dependent soil stress-strain behavior were convenient and provided reasonably accurate representations of the actual soil behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general objective of this research is to develop methods for analysis of stresses and movements in embankments. The analysis will provide an opportunity to evaluate the usefulness of the finite element method for conditions where: (1) The calculations are performed before the dam is built; (2) The dam rests on a considerable thickness of compressible clays and silts; (3) There is considerable time delay in the movements due to consolidation of the foundation; and (4) Because of the low strengths of the clays in the foundation of the dam, it will be necessary to build the dam in two stages, allowing time for consolidation of the foundation before the second stage is built. Settlements, horizontal movements, and the pore pressures will be measured in the foundation and the embankment of Birch Dam (Osage County, Oklahoma) during construction and after. When these measurements are available, an additional study will be conducted to compare the measurements with the predictions contained in this report. This follow-up study will provide a basis for evaluating the accuracy of the presently available finite element analysis procedures for a difficult set of conditions.

Download or read book Soil Plasticity written by W.F. Chen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1985-11-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is addressed primarily to civil engineers familiar with such traditional topics as strength of materials, soil mechanics, and theory of elasticity and structures, but less familiar with the modern development of the mathematical theory of soil plasticity necessary to any engineer working under the general heading of nonlinear analysis of soil-structure system. This book will satisfy his needs in the case of the soil medium.It introduces the reader to the theory of soil plasticity and its numerical implementation into computer programs. The theory and method of computer implementation presented here are appropriate for solving nonlinear static dynamic problems in soil mechanics and are applicable for finite difference and finite element computer codes. A sample computer model subroutine is developed and this is used to study some typical soil mechanics problems.With its comprehensive coverage and simple, concise presentation, the book will undoubtedly prove to be very useful for consulting engineers, research and graduate students in geotechnical engineering.
