Analysis of piled raft foundations, taking account of their full three-dimensional complexity, can be accomplished by modern finite element analysis techniques. The characteristics of the (preconditioned conjugate gradient) numerical method applied to this problem are analysed, and then the method i
An approximate numerical method for the analysis of piled raft foundations is presented. The raft is modelled as a thin plate and the piles as interacting non-linear springs. Both the raft and the piles are interacting with the soil which is modelled as an elastic layer. Two sources of non-linearity
A numerical model is proposed to analyse elastic as well as elastoplastic behaviour of stone-column reinforced foundations. The stone-columns are assumed to be dispersed within the in situ soil and a homogenization technique is invoked to establish equivalent material properties for in situ soil and
## Abstract The modification required to provide plate on elastic foundation analysis capability with existing finite element algorithms is presented. As shown by an example, the modification is applicable to configurations with varying ratios of plate to foundation stiffness.
