Lessons learned from full scale observations and the practical application of advanced testing and modelling
, Pages: 201-245Field observations from thirteen recent case histories from the UK and France are described which are used to assess an approach for predicting ground movements and soil-structure interaction. High quality site investigations, including very careful sampling and advanced testing are seen to be crucial to success. Providing there are adequate geotechnical data, the non-linear FE predictive approach advocated by the Authors is shown to be sufficient for most engineering purposes, considering typical project time scales. Factors that merit particular attention include: the geological model; sampling and testing quality; anisotropy and pressure dependency; a fully non-linear modelling approach; addressing behaviour from very small to large strains; the 'structure' of natural and artificial geomaterials; the possibility of brittle failure; three dimensional geometry and construction details; permeability and groundwater variations. It is shown, however, that the present approach does not capture some important long term effects of time, creep and ageing. Comments are also made on the use of such advanced techniques in combination with an 'observational approach', and on pos-sible avenues for further research and development. © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group.

Parametric finite element analyses of suction anchors
, Pages: 297-302This paper presents the results from a series of three-dimensional (3D) finite element parametric studies on suction anchors in clay. The objective is to investigate the effects of a number of factors on the pull out capacity of suction anchors, namely the position of the attachment point, inclination of the pull out force and anchor geometry. A typical soft clay was considered as the seabed soil and it was simulated using a form of the modified Cam clay model. The results identify the optimum position of the anchoring point, as well as the optimum inclination of the pull out force. © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group.

<jats:p> Debate surrounds the extent of tidal influence in Palaeozoic shallow epi-continental seas. In the absence of analogical reasoning, numerical modelling provides a quantitative means of investigating tidality in the geological record. Herein a new finite element model, tested for accuracy on the present-day Mediterranean, is used to predict an exceedingly low tidal range ( <jats:bold><10</jats:bold> cm) in the epi-continental seaway that covered much of NW Europe during the Late Carboniferous. This small bulge may have been amplified to <jats:bold> <jats:italic>c</jats:italic> </jats:bold> . 1 m in estuaries, leading to the localized deposition of cyclic rhythmites, agreeing with geological observations. Extremely low tidal ranges in ancient epi-continental seas may be one mechanism to prevent water-body mixing, enhancing stratification and promoting anoxia. </jats:p>
