Example 17: Winkler's model and Isotropic elastic half-space
soil medium
Description of the problem
A simple example was carried out to verify Winkler's model
and Isotropic elastic half space soil medium, by comparing
ELPLA
results with those of
Mikhaiel
(1978) (Example 34, page 189) and Henedy
(1987) ( Section 3.6, page 66)
(or
Bazaraa
(1997)).
A square raft of 0.4 [m] thickness and 10 [m] side was
chosen and subdivided into 64 square elements, each has dimensions of 1.25 [m] * 1.25 [m]. The
raft carries four column loads, each 500 [kN] as shown in Figure 27. |
