Analysis of Tapial structures for modern use and conservation (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Augarde, C., Jaquin, P., & Gerrard, C. (2004). Analysis of Tapial structures for modern use and conservation.

Tapial is an ancient form of rammed earth wall construction found in many parts of the world. In medieval Spain, Tapial was used in the construction of some large and complex structures, some many-storied. That these buildings remain standing (many r...

Interaction between multiple tunnels in soft ground (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Koungelis, D., & Augarde, C. (2004). Interaction between multiple tunnels in soft ground. In A. J. Deeks, & H. Hao (Eds.), Developments in mechanics of structures & materials : proceedings of the 18th Australasian Conference on the Mechanics of Structures and Materials, Perth, Australia, 1-3 December 2004 (1031-1036)

An important aspect of planning for shallow tunnelling under urban areas in soft ground is the determination of likely surface movements and interaction with existing structures. Considerable research has been undertaken of this problem for the case... Read More about Interaction between multiple tunnels in soft ground.

Tapial is an ancient form of rammed earth wall construction found in many parts of the world. In medieval Spain, Tapial was used in the construction of some very large and complex structures, some many-storied. That these buildings remain standing (m...

Generation of shape functions for rectangular plate elements (2004)
Journal Article
Augarde, C. (2004). Generation of shape functions for rectangular plate elements. Communications in numerical methods in engineering, 20(8), 655-663. https://doi.org/10.1002/cnm.703

This paper describes a procedure for the generation of shape functions for a family of rectangular plate elements from Lagrangian polynomials. A novel generation procedure is developed from previous work for straight beam elements, where level one He... Read More about Generation of shape functions for rectangular plate elements.

Stresses around a square tunnel using a meshless scaled boundary method (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Deeks, A., & Augarde, C. (2004). Stresses around a square tunnel using a meshless scaled boundary method.

The scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) combines advantages of the conventional displacement finite element method (FE) and the boundary element method for problems in solid mechanics. In the SBFEM, a “scaling centre” is defined for a domai... Read More about Stresses around a square tunnel using a meshless scaled boundary method.
