The first method belongs to the family of more traditional approaches, which are based on best fitting a theoretical correlation model to available CPT data. The second method involves a new strategy which combines information from conditional random fields with the traditional approach. Both methods are applied to a case study involving the estimation of θ at three two-dimensional sections across a site and the results obtained show general agreement between the two methods, suggesting a similar level of accuracy between the new and traditional approaches. However, in order to further assess the relative accuracy of estimates provided by each method, a second numerical analysis is proposed. The results confirm the general consistency observed in the case study calculations, particularly in the vertical direction where a large amount of data are available. Interestingly, for the horizontal direction, where data are typically scarce, some additional improvement in terms of relative error is obtained with the new approach. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:50 AEDT ]]> Buried footings in random soils: comparison of limit analysis and finite element analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26373 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:33:06 AEDT ]]> A rapid approach to estimate the rockfall energies and distances at the base of rock cliffs https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24356 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:18 AEDT ]]>
