Correctly understanding, designing and analysing the foundations that support structures is fundamental to their safety. This book by a range of academic, design and contracting world experts provides a review of the state of the art techniques for modelling foundations using both linear and non linear numerical analysis. It applies to a range of infrastructure, civil engineering and structural engineering projects. Topics include:  Ground vibrations caused by trains Pile-group effects Bearing capacity of shallow foundations under static and seismic conditions Bucket foundation technology for offshore oilfields  Seismically induced liquefaction in earth embankment foundations and in pile foundations  Free vibrations of industrial chimneys and TV towers with flexibility of the soil  Settlements of high rise structures  Seepage, stress fields and dynamic responses in dams  Site investigation It allows designers, engineers, architects, researchers and clients to understand some of the advanced numerical techniques used in the analysis and design of foundations.
