This article presents a Kriging-based probabilistic analysis of an earth dam. The dam failure
probability with respect to the sliding stability is investigated by considering the influence of …

This paper reviews the previous studies on mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall, soil
nail (SN) wall, and hybrid earth retaining structures (HERS) to provide a critical appraisal …

In order to calculate the reliability index of a circular tunnel excavated in a soil mass, the first-
order reliability method (FORM) is used. A 2D numerical model in a transversal section and …

This paper uses evolutionary optimization algorithms to study the multi‐objective
optimization of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining walls. Five multi‐objective …

In coastal regions, earthquakes caused severe damage to marine structures. Many
researchers have conducted numerical investigations in order to understand the dynamic …

This paper presents the study of treatment of an expansive soil with vegetal fibres. The soil
studied is swelling clay from the region of Souk Ahras (Algeria). The use of fibres as …

A reliability analysis of the pseudo-static dynamic bearing capacity of a strip footing using
the finite difference (FDM) numerical is presented in this paper. The two components …

This paper presents a reliability analysis of the pseudo-static seismic bearing capacity of a
strip foundation using the limit equilibrium theory. The first-order reliability method (FORM) is …

This article presents the soil spatial variability effect on the performance of a reinforced earth
wall. The serviceability limit state is considered in the analysis. Both cases of isotropic and …

Aiming at failure problems associated with floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) mooring
systems, a new reliability assessment method is established based on an intelligent …
