Seismic Bearing Capacity of Eccentrically and Obliquely Loaded Strip Footings on Geosynthetic-Reinforced Soil
https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1942-7915
The paper aims to evaluate the pseudostatic seismic bearing capacity of shallow foundations on geosynthetic-reinforced granular soil subjected to inclined/eccentric combined loading. This is achieved through a comprehensive set of lower-bound finite-element limit analysis (LB FELA) simulations adopting the second-order cone programming. The pseudostatic seismic loading is incorporated into the element equilibrium equations as body forces. Both sliding and structural modes of geosynthetic failure are simulated within the FELA framework. The influences of pseudostatic acceleration, embedment depth (u), and the ultimate tensile strength (Tu) of the reinforcement layer on the failure mechanism, bearing capacity ratio, and failure envelope of the overlying obliquely/eccentrically loaded shallow foundation are thoroughly investigated and discussed. It is generally concluded that at a given reinforcement embedment depth, failure envelopes shrink substantially with the increase of the seismic horizontal acceleration and the reduction of the geosynthetic ultimate tensile strength.
