Finite element limit analysis of passive earth resistance in cohesionless soils (2008)
Journal Article
Shiau, J., Augarde, C., Lyamin, A., & Sloan, S. (2008). Finite element limit analysis of passive earth resistance in cohesionless soils. Soils and Foundations, 48(6), 843-850

This note examines the classic passive earth resistance of cohesionless soil by using two newly developed numerical procedures based on finite element formulations of the bound theorems of limit analysis and non-linear programming techniques. Solutio... Read More about Finite element limit analysis of passive earth resistance in cohesionless soils.

Chronological description of the spatial development of rammed earth techniques (2008)
Journal Article

Rammed earth has been used by man for thousands of years and is currently experiencing a revival in some parts of the world as a result of its inherent sustainability. Historic rammed earth structures are scattered around the world, and much informat... Read More about Chronological description of the spatial development of rammed earth techniques.

The exact solution for the deflection and stresses in an end-loaded cantilever is widely used to demonstrate the capabilities of adaptive procedures, in finite elements, meshless methods and other numerical techniques. In many cases, however, the bou... Read More about The use of Timoshenko's exact solution for a cantilever beam in adaptive analysis.

The Effects of Geotechnical Material Properties on the convergence of iterative Solvers (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Augarde, C. E., Crouch, R. S., Li, T., & Ramage, A. (2008). The Effects of Geotechnical Material Properties on the convergence of iterative Solvers. In D. Singh (Ed.),

There is increasing interest in the use of iterative rather than direct solvers for geotechnical finite element analysis. For large 3D problems iterative solvers offer the only possibility of economical solution on a desktop PC. The major stumbling b...
