Comparison of Physical and Computational Experiment Results to Determine the Load-Bearing Capability of a Uniform Plate Bed

Аннотация

The feasibility is examined of using an approximated analytic solution to a mixed problem in the theory of elasticity and the theory of plasticity of soil to tentatively assess the load-bearing capability of beds. Results of experimental and computational studies carried out by the authors and other researchers are compared and their satisfactory conformance is established.
