The advancement of a tunnel boring machine in the ground has been modelled<br/>using a phased excavation scheme, including the slurry support at the shield face, the conicity of the shield and the grouting at the shield tail. A comparison is made with field measurements obtained at the Second Heinenoord Tunnel. Also calculations are made...

In this presentation a vision is given on tlie fiiture of the finite element method (FEM) for geotechnical engineering and design. In the past 20 years the FEM has proven to be a powerful method for estimating deformation, stability and groundwater flow in geoteclmical stmctures. Much has been achieved in terms of advanced models for soil...

The implementation of Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) within the geotechnical software package PLAXIS 2D is described in this paper. A recovery-based algorithm is used which aims to reduce the discretisation error by refining the mesh during the solution process. The error is estimated with a Zienkiewicz-Zhu-type error estimator but based on the...

Numerical aspects of seismic liquefaction in soils as implemented in the finite element code, PLAXIS, is described in this paper. After description of finite element equations of dynamic problems, three practical dynamic boundary conditions, namely viscous boundary tractions, tied degrees of freedom and free field elements are reviewed....

Stochastic seismic wavelet-based evolutionary response of multispan structures including wave-passage and site-response effects is formulated in this paper. A procedure to estimate site-compatible parameters of surface-to-bedrock frequency response function (FRF) by using finite-element analysis of the supporting soil medium is proposed. The...

Displacement-based finite element calculations are primarily used for serviceability limit state (SLS) analysis, but the finite element method also offers possibilities for ultimate limit state (ULS) design in geotechnical engineering. The combined use of SLS and ULS calculations with partial safety factors according to the different design...

Knowing that extensive field tests and laboratory tests are time-consuming and expensive, this paper describes a practical approach to obtain crucial properties of frozen soil such as the soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC), the freezing/melting point of a soil-water system and its hydraulic conductivity by means of limited input data....

Recently, a constitutive model has been developed describing the mechanical behaviour of frozen soil as a function of temperature, all the way to the unfrozen state, and vice versa (Ghoreishian et al., 2016). The model has been implemented as a user-defined soil model in the geotechnical finite element code PLAXIS 2D and applied in practical...

In this study, installation of jacked piles in sand is simulated using Press-Replace Method (PRM) and Material Point Method (MPM) and the results are compared together. This comparison is important because a realistic and yet efficient simulation of installation of jacked piles is an appealing step towards the design and analysis of this type of...

Liquefaction induced by earthquakes has shown to have potential devastating influence on seismic performance of anchored quay walls. Therefore, measures to mitigate liquefaction are commonly part of the design of quay walls in<br/>seismically active regions. Such mitigation measures are costly. Moreover, these measures are difficult to implement...

In this paper the man-induced earthquakes in Groningen (the Netherlands) are studied in terms of site response analyses and liquefaction evaluation. A particular soil profile in Loppersum is employed and soil properties are determined based on available geotechnical data. Clayey soil layers are modelled by means of the Generalised Hardening Soil...

The Material Point Method (MPM) has been developed as a special finite element-based method for large deformation analysis, material flow and contact problems. When it comes to applications in soil, MPM can provide solutions where conventional FEM faces its limitations. Examples of geotechnical applications include landslides, silo filling and...

Recently, a constitutive model has been developed to describe the mechanical behaviour of frozen soil as a function of temperature, all the way to the unfrozen state, and vice versa [1]. The model has been implemented as a user-defined soil model (UDSM) in the geotechnical finite element code PLAXIS 2D and applied in practical thermo-hydro...

In this work, we present the application of a newly developed implicit second-order Material Point Method (MPM) on offshore geotechnical applications. The presented second-order MPM uses a special set of piecewise quadratic shape functions to circumvent the well-known issue of producing zero nodal mass contributions. To mitigate the effect of...
