Load-displacement prediction for horizontally loaded vertical plates

Article Abstract:

Analysis of the horizontally loaded vertical plates must consider two factors, namely, one that represents the embedment depth of the anchor plate and the other that represents the width. The dimensionless parameters used to predict an easy estimation of the ultimate horizontal pullout resistance of vertical anchor plates and the displacement associated with the level of the applied load do not allow one to use the pullout capacity as a factor in all the geometrical dimensionless parameters of the problem. It also does not consider the angle of friction's effect at the soil-structure interface.

Probabilistic analysis of randomly distributed fiber-reinforced soil

Article Abstract:

An analysis of fiber-reinforced sand designed to examine the effect of fiber weight fraction, fiber content, aspect ratio, surface friction, soil characteristics and confining stress cannot be considered probabilistic since there is no variability in any of the parameters. Thus, regression analysis would have been a more appropriate term. Although the experimental findings may be valuable to soil research, it would have been more useful if more information on soils tested were provided.
