Appraising stone column settlement prediction methods using finite element analyses
(Springer Verlag, 2014-09-26)Numerous approaches exist for the prediction of the settlement improvement offered by the vibro-replacement technique in weak or marginal soil deposits. The majority of the settlement prediction methods are based on the ... -
Numerical modelling of the improvements to primary and creep settlements offered by granular columns
(Springer-Verlag, 2013)Analytical vibro-replacement design approaches typically quantify the settlement reduction using a dimensionless settlement improvement factor, defined as the ratio of the settlements without and with treatment. Most ... -
Stone column settlement performance in structured anisotropic clays: the influence of creep
(Elsevier, 2016-07-15)The recently developed elasto-viscoplastic Creep-SCLAY1S model has been used in conjunction with PLAXIS 2D to investigate the effectiveness of vibro-replacement in a creep-prone clay. The Creep-SCLAY1S model accounts for ...
