Gassy clays containing large, discrete gas bubbles are widely spread in deposits in shallow waters. The existence of gas bubbles may impair the original soil structure, resulting in the instability of offshore foundations and the occurrence of submarine ...

Geosynthetic-reinforced soil structures are often used to support shallow foundations of various infrastructure systems including bridges, railways, and highways. When such infrastructures are located in seismic areas, their performance is linked to the ...

Structures built on sands worldwide, with shallow foundations, have experienced damage and collapse during and after earthquakes. Two phenomena triggered the collapse: the liquefaction phenomenon and the P-? effects. However, current research and practic...

The presence of minor details of the ground, including soil or rock masses, occurs more frequently than what is normally believed. Thin weak layers, shear bands, and slickensided surfaces can substantially affect the behaviour of foundations, as well as ...

Offshore wind turbines are a complex, dynamically sensitive structure due to their irregular mass and stiffness distribution, and complexity of the loading conditions they need to withstand. There are other challenges in particular locations such as typh...
